He'll Do It For You

Hello, My name is Jasper.  All praises to the Lord.  I came across an interesting story, one of encouragement, love, and the power of our Lord.  He loves us all.  He does things for us that we cannot do for ourselves because he has a purpose for our lives.  This is a testimony about a little boy around the age of 8 who was at a pool party.  At the party, some of his friends were having a lot of fun in the shallow end of the pool.  He decided to join them and he dived into the water, head first, but he struck his head on the bottom of the pool breaking his neck in 4 places.  He broke it from the first column to the fourth column and when the doctors examined him they informed his parents that most people with this type of injury do not recover.  Still, they air lifted the little boy to another hospital where special doctors could attend to him.  His father was very distraught, he didn't know what to do, he was a wreck.  All he could do was just pray, hold his hands up to his head, and pray to the Lord.  The boy's mother began to talk to her relatives.  The relatives, in turn, began to tell their friends about the incident.  The friends began to share this tragedy with their church and before long there was a huge prayer vigil for this young man.  The parents were awaiting news of his condition.  They had to wait a little while because he was in another city.  When they got news of his condition, they were told not only did he live, but he fully recovered.  He actually recovered to the point where he did not need to see any physical therapists or have any physical therapy.  To me, this is a modern day miracle.  What once was, is no more.  God completely turned the situation around.  I want you to be encouraged today, saints.  If God will do it for this little boy, in your times of trouble, he will also do it for you.  He is the same yesterday, today, and tomorrow.  He said "I will always be with you, even until the end of time.  Just have faith and believe in me and I will take care of you."  He is a God that cannot lie.  Keep this in mind as you go through your life struggles.  God is always there just waiting for you to ask for help.  My name is Jasper.  He is worthy of all praise.
