I was sick for eight years.
It all began with a fit of trembling and weakness in the left arm. Expert
medical check up revealed that the nerves of the brain were deteriorating.
I became totally bed-ridden, lost my power of speech but got it back partially
through medication. After still more treatment, the doctors pronounced
I was beyond redemption. Persuaded by others, I went to Divine for the
special retreat for the sick. On the 23rd, during the Holy Hour I got up
and walked without any one's help. Thank you Jesus!!
From my childhood, that is, from the age of 9 years, I started to smoke. At that time I felt very proud of myself thinking there was nothing better than that. In 1992 when I attended a retreat at Divine Retreat Centre, Muringoor, I surrendered my habit of smoking to Jesus. After that till this very day I have never been tempted to smoke, by the power of the Holy Spirit. Before I had tried several times but could never stop it even through medical advice.
Now I am happy about it and
I thank and praise Jesus, because only through him could I get rid of my
bad habit.
