A new testimony for me to share with the world.

I just want to share what the Lord has done for me with you all.
About a month and a half ago I was in a wheel chair with 3 failed attempts to have back surgery and then another surgeon refusing surgery saying that I was to fat for the surgery to do any good. I had not been able to walk but very short distances ( from couch to bathroom) and then in so much pain it would always make me cry. I had gotten to the point where I finally said to God, I can not take this any more so either you heal me or take me home because I no longer can live like this. Yes, I know we are supposed to be happy and thankful we are alive no matter what our circumstances are but, until you are in that position you don't truly know how you will act.
Then we had a series of revival meetings at our church and I missed more than I wanted to because of the pain but, the Lord had plans for me and He saved the timing for me. I went to one of these meetings and the Word truly filled my soul and spirit with a renewed desire. I made a decision that no matter how bad I felt I was going to the rest of those meetings and Praise God He showed up and showed out.
I was called out at one of the meetings and thought the man of God was willing to wait for someone to push my wheel chair up to him, I felt the Lord say if you really wants this stand up and go after it. And I did, I walked up front.No it was not easy and it had the ability to make me look like a fool if I fell but, I knew God had spoken to me so I needed to trust Him on this. God Healed me that night and I haven't needed the wheel chair since except for long distances because my muscled need to be restrengthened since I sat in a chair for over a year.
Yes, I am now in Physical Therapy but that is only for restrengthening my muscles to allow me to continue walking safely without re injuring myself. When you have been in a wheel chair for so long your muscles forget how to work or even times the don't want to work. and it is my opinion that if you retrain them safely you won't have more troubles. Anyway, A month and a half ago I was just getting up from a wheel chair and yesterday my PT said that I am 75% out of 100% stronger than I was when I got to his office, only God can do that.
P.s. Being in the wheel chair I got so far down that I let almost all of my muscles go and had gotten to the point of not even being able to lift my hands praise and today , I can not only do that I am even beginning to see muscles appear on my arms.
NOTHING IS IMPOSSIBLE FOR GOD!!!!!!!
