Missionaries to Japan (continued)
So let me continue to blabber on.
Due to the extreme weather in Sapporo, her 2 little boys (1 1/2 years and a 4-month old) contracted pneumonia. Their left lungs were clogged up at the same time. They were rushed into hospital, but could not afford to be hospitalised and placed on the drip for 24 hours, even though it could be fatal. She told the doctor and nurse outrightly that she had a God, and she was going to trust in God to save her kids. The doctor and nurse were concerned, but agreed, and instructed her to take the boys back for a scan the next morning.
They returned home and sent a fax to their church in Singapore to get everyone to pray. They spent the entire night seeking God's healing and mercy. The next day, when they underwent the scan, the doctor and nurse were astonished to find that their lungs had been miraculously cleared! They had totally recovered! Praise the Lord!! In the end, the doctor brought his whole family and attended their church!
God really works wonders, and He is very much alive. We just need to seek Him faithfully. Our God is faithful, and He will never take away anything that He knows is good for us. But it's our own ignorant selves who create trouble for ourselves when we refuse to trust in God and acknowledge that He is the God Almighty. We always rely on our own means, thinking that we have the very power to handle all things. We need to become fools, fools for the Lord, in order for Him to work in us and do wonders through us.
