Jesus Is for All!
"...I will rebuild
the dwelling of David, which has fallen; from its ruins I will rebuild
it, and I will set it up, so that all other peoples may seek the Lord -
ever all the gentiles over whom my name has been called"(Acts 15:16-17)
I am so happy to write this
letter with a heart filled with thanksgiving. I would like to praise and
thank Lord Jesus Christ who looked upon us and worked a powerful miracle
in my daughter's life.
My daughter, now aged 9
years had bronchial asthma since her childhood. First we consulted a child
specialist who recommended some syrups at the time she got attacks. That
gave only temporary relief; the attack would come very frequently (15 days
or so), specially during seasonal changes and full moon days. She was allergic
to dust, smoke, dirty smells, oil and ghee.
When she was five years
old she was treated with homeopathy medicine, which gave very slow results
and the asthma attack would remain for two days, due to which my daughter
suffered a lot, missing her studies in school. There was no relief for
three years. I was desperate and lost confidence in God.
Then one day my Christian
friend in office told me about Jesus Christ, who is the Saviour and could
heal my child, Mehernaz too if I prayed to him. Since she was going to
Divine Retreat Centre, I gave her my petition in full faith. I am a Parsi
by caste but believed in all religions. I wrote about Mehernaz' sickness
and asked Lord Jesus to heal her and bless her. My friend told me after
coming back from DRC that the prayer petitions were prayed over by many
thousands of people including priests. I was relieved to hear this and
believed that God had healed my daughter. I purchased a night lamp for
Lord Jesus and prayed to him daily before going to sleep. I would also
keep my hand on my daughter's forehead and pray as my friend had taught
me.
"Lord Jesus, bless my daughter,
right from the crown of her head to the very sole of her feet with good
health, knowledge and wisdom."
When I finished my prayer,
my daughter told me that she felt as if a heavy load were lifted from her
body. She felt very light-hearted and happy.
Since that day till now
she is completely cured and has had no attacks in these two years' time.
I continue my prayer daily.
As promised, I hereby give
my testimony so that many non-Christians may read and believe that Jesus
is the Lord of all communities and not only of Christians. Praise the Lord!
Thank you Jesus!
