But we had sessions and just got reminded of who we are in Christ. Well I have been having problems with my back like major pain and I cant lift things sometimes because it would not agree with me. Like I would bend over and just have to stay there for a little bit just because it hurts so much. Before the trip I have been going to the chiropractor and trying to make it a little better before I have to carry my 50 lbs. backpack around for the next 9 months. Well I told my team and they said oh shoot we are going to pray for you so that night, my team leader Krista, she said “Hey lets pray for you now. “

So I laid on the floor and the next thing you know there is all my brothers and sisters in Christ with their hands on my back just bathing my back in prayer and asking God for it to not be a burden on me so that I can go do HIS work and not to worry about and physical pain. But it wasn’t just physical pain it was the deep sins and burdens that were also causing me pain.  Burdens that I thought I had let go of, but no. So they started letting the Lord speak through them and they called them out to me. Most of them didn’t know what they were saying. It was strait from the Lord.

 So while they were speaking that over me, I was flat face on the floor and was staring strait into Jesus eyes. They were the most beautiful blue eyes you could ever imagine. He looked at me and said, “Look at me. “ Then He said “RELY ON ME. “  Then in that moment of just gazing upon him I started looking away and he said “NO, I’m right here, Hey Child, YOUR HEALED. “ And at that moment, My good friend Elliot placed his fiery hot hand on my back and I felt this coolness spread through out my whole back and there was no more pain. Not in my upper back, lower back, not ANYWHERE. In that moment, I will never forget the closeness I had to the Lord just gazing in his eyes. There was no place I would have rather been.

Praise God that today I can now say I can bend over without a pain. I can carry my 50 lbs. backpack.  And not only that pain, but while looking into his eyes, I turned every burden unto him. I am free from everything I was trying to hide from him even though he knew it all. There is NO reason to hold anything from him. Praise God for everything he has done so far, and its JUST beginning.
