There are so many testimonies that I have yet to share, and this one I’m sharing of my son, two weeks short of his 17th birthday, is one of the most significant. It was also one month short of the first of two of our daughter’s weddings, within four months.
I received a call from my son, from the hospital, saying he had a broken vertebrae; I immediately knew that he was unaware of the severity of what he was saying. As I walked up to the hospital doors, I vividly remember praying to the Lord, thanking Him for the gift of life He had given me in my son, in these very few short years, and that I fully trusted Him for whatever reason He had brought this tragedy my way.
I was greeted by a very, hopefully, exception-to-the-rule doctor, who glibly said to me, that my son would be dead by morning, or be a paraplegic for life. As I walked in to the hospital room, my son was in a neck brace, and fully conscious. The medical chart was fully visible for me to see, and said, broken neck: C1.
He spent most overnight being sick, from the trauma of his head injury. By morning he was still alive. Praise be to God, alone! He was let out about a week later, with a neck brace, and rested for a few months, and he is completely healed, and has never had any paralysis, or side effects. Glory to God alone!
Isaiah 26:12 says, “Lord Thou wilt establish Peace for us, since Thou hast also performed for us ALL our works. Ephesians 3:16 that He (God) would grant you, according to the riches of His Glory, to be strengthened with Power through His (Holy) Spirit in the inner man
Dearest Heavenly Father, I am so very thankful for ALL these “testimonies in the making,” You have permitted to come my way, and the Calvary, overcoming, keeping Grace of Your Son, and my Lord Jesus, within my heart, to see me through it all. I pray that many, going through difficult situations now, would be able to receive this Testimony-seed in their heart, of Thy Perfect Faithfulness to me, to give them Hope, for their own “Testimonies in the making.” I give You all the Praise, the Glory, and the Honor in All things, for All things.
