**Note: this story happened back in November*
God has revealed Himself to me in ways I have never experienced before. One example happened during Healing week. During healing week we learned about how God wants to heal and it is his will to heal us. When Jesus died on the cross he took not only our sins but also our sickness and therefore we as Christians need to walk in this promise. In class on the first day of Healing week (intense I know) God told me that I needed to pray for my friend Yolanda. Let me rewind a bit to the Sunday before all this happened, Yolanda goes to my church and in the service on Sunday God told me to pray for her foot. She has a foot that is crippled so that she has to walk on the side of it. Unfortunately, I was disobedient and didn't pray for her that Sunday in the service, but God in his infinite patience gave me another opportunity on Tuesday. On Tuesday Rachel, Heather and I all went to her house. God gave me a specific vision that involved washing her foot. I must say I was a little afraid because I wasn't sure how she would react to me washing her foot and praying over it, but I knew I needed to step out in obedience. The first time we went to her house she wasn't there so we returned that night and she wasn't there again, but just as we were walking down the road to our car we saw her walking up with her small son. She was very receptive to us praying for her foot and didn't even flinch when I asked to wash her foot. We ended up praying for her foot in the van that night and even though her foot didn't straighten I think healing happened that night. It may have been an emotional healing or the beginnings of a physical healing I will maybe never know, but it really isn't my business to know why or how, its my job to be obedient. Since that night Yolanda has had surgery on her foot, but I can't say if it was a successful surgery because I haven't seen her since her surgery. Please keep Yolanda in your prayers not only does she has physical scars and wounds, but she has some deep emotional wounds that need healing that can only come Jesus. She is a believer and I can tell that she loves Jesus with all that she is, but she is still wounded. Please keep her in your prayers.
