Hi everyone,
On May 5 my wife, Sandy, sent out a prayer request for me. Around Easter I had a slight gout attack in my left ankle that was more inconvenience than painful. After several days I had to meet with some clients to show a very remote 10 acre parcel of land in the Blue Ridge Mountains. I had taken my cane with me to help keep me stand up right on the property. While I was locating and re-marking one of the property line stakes I slipped backwards and grabbed hold of a mountain laurel branch to steady myself. I believe at this time I must have pulled a muscle or a hamstring in the back side of my left knee. After 2 days I was unable to walk on it at all and found it extremely painful. It was at this time Sandy sent out the E-mail requesting prayer.
My son-in-law, Matthew Keller, had made up a very nice booklet called “Taking God's Word as Medicine”; His version of the Pink Cards from Faith Tech and I borrowed it from him. I began to read it. I read it before I would go to bed and after several nights I would wake up with some of the scriptures on my mind. My family and all of you had been praying and I knew that I needed to relax on God’s Promises and that I had an Army of God’s Saints doing battle with me and just needed to get to a place of faith that I could not think of anything else but that I was healed.
Another week went by with no let up on the pain but by then I began to relax more with God’s word washing me. I believe it was the middle of the week that I hopped into the shower and began to sing and praise God and thank him for my healing. After about 10 or 15 minutes I had a release in my spirit almost as if the wind had been knock out of me. I didn’t notice anything as far as healing in my natural body but I did feel it in my spirit. Immediately I got dressed and began to walk about the home without any crutches. I still had pain and it was difficult to walk but I knew that I needed to be responsible to God and act out my faith.
I did start to improve over the next few days, then on Sunday May 15 I got up out of bed and walked without any aid and my healing had caught up with my faith.
I truly want to thank all of you that keep me lifted up in your prayers.
Praise the Lord!

Here are a few Scriptures that would come to mind at night:
Matt. 8:26: “ And Jesus said unto them, why are you fearful, O you of little faith?
Matt. 8:13: “And Jesus said to the centurion, Go your way, and as you have believed, so be it done unto you. And his servant was healed in the same hour.”
Matt. 8:16: “When evening was come, they brought unto Jesus many that were possessed with demons; and he cast out the spirits with his word, and HEALED ALL THAT WERE SICK.”
Malachi 4:2: “But unto you that fear my name shall the Sun of righteousness arise with healing in His wings.”
