God's Intervention:

Healing of a Chronic Illness

By Anonymous

Summary: How wonderful God is to those that believe and are patient for His answers. You will be rewarded in ways only God could have imagined.

Keywords: God's Intervention, Healing, Chronic Illness, Answered Prayer, Inspiration

I suffered with chronic headaches (daily), some very extreme that I was forced to stay in bed for three to four days at a time. This fact forced me to retire early from my existing job six months prior to my thirty year anniversary. After twenty-nine years and six months of service to the VA Medical Center, I was literally drummed out due to my illness and frequent absences. It was done in a very uncompassionate manner. I was dejected and miserable due to this fact and the fact that my headaches continued daily.

I was eventually called by a Priest friend that I had graduated from high school with regarding a potential job working at the Chancery for our Diocese. I was so excited and I had been having a good run with my headaches, probably due to total inactivity, so I said yes! I was interviewed and was accepted to a position that I am thrilled with having. I was also accepted by the Bishop as an Aspirant for the permanent diaconate program. Life was great!

Despite these tribulations, I was still plagued with the headaches that seem to come back with vengeance. I was absent for half a month three months in a row and knew I would end up losing this job as well. I was miserable and only wanted to be productive and provide for my family.

I had seen some "world renowned" physicians to no avail. While working one day I was discussing my headaches with a wonderful lady that also works at the diocese and she shared her father's story with me that was very similar to mine. She told me about [a clinic*] and how wonderful the results were for her father. I had new hope and called to make an appointment which I was given in short order. I reported for my appointment on a Friday and the doctor wanted to admit me that Sunday to begin treatment. I returned on Monday and was admitted and started the treatment. I was hospitalized for nine days.

I have been home now for two weeks and have had but one headache since my treatment. I know where did God intervene? I know that it was God that directed to the position at the diocese. I know that it was God that placed me in the presence of the lovely lady that told me the story about her father and the [clinic*]. And I can not tell you how supportive, compassionate and encouraging the Bishop and the Moderator of Curia were in dealing with this crisis.

Only God could have provided for me in the manner that He has. Only God has made it possible for me to possibly become a Deacon in His Church and be enriched so abundantly by learning about my faith! I ask that all that suffer please continue to pray for God's intervention, He will answer your prayers. I had my headaches for eight years but continued to pray and ask others to do so for me and He did answer my prayers. Be patient, God will hear you and answer your prayers too. Give Glory to God for my healing!
