Love the Lord, All
you his People
"I will give thanks to
you, O LORD, among the peoples,
and I will sing praises
to you among the nations" (Ps. 108:3)
I have been a teacher of
St.Thomas Cathedral school at Trivandrum for over 18 years. I was suffering
from a severe headache. No medication could give me relief. Most of the
weeks I was afflicted with this malady. The neurologist of Shri Chitira
Medical Centre put it down to migraine or tension headache. Though I took
a lot of medicine I never prayed for healing. In September, 1998, I went
to the Divine for a retreat with my husband. On the fourth day of the retreat,
while Fr. George Panackal was conducting the healing service, all of us
were praying for others. I, too, kept praying for several sick people.
Fr. kept mentioning names of those who received healing. I heard him say
once, "Jesus is healing 12 people who have been suffering from headache
for the past 18 years". I was sure I was one of them and praised God. From
that time until today I have not had any attack of the headache that had
troubled me . I returned from the retreat with the firm determination to
live very close to Jesus. Thank you Jesus, Praise you Jesus!
