I believe in the power of prayer, like many of you do, even of the little things. It is just really cool to see how a whole situation can be changed right before you after whispering a soft sweet prayer to our Lord.
I have had back pain for 2 months. But I really couldn't tend to it because of our long trip. When we got back I got this email that there was going to be a Chiropractor and physiotherapist in town from Kenya for 3 days. I made a booking. The day I went to the clinic where they were visiting, I was ushered into a room with a lady. I told them who I was looking for and she said she could help me. I was confused but I started talking to her about my back. After I while I started to get the impression that this was not the lady I was to see. When I asked if there was a physio here she knew nothing of it. I thought I was in the wrong place, maybe wrong clinic! She put me on hold while she talked with some other employees. Very unprofessional, but very Tanzanian.
Very desperate for relief, I closed my eyes while she was chatting away and ask the Lord to please, please give me someone who can help me with this pain or just take it away, I know you can do that.
Eventually I decided I was in the wrong place and just then I got a text asking where I was. I called them and they were in a different part of the clinic. I quickly went to them and there they were, two of them, very professional Kenya ladies with perfect English and so welcoming!
They did a heat scan of my back for my bones and muscles to see where I am having the most pain and problems. They worked on my back with electronic shocks and massage. Then the chiropractor took a turn at me with her bench. I was SO sore but it worked and my back has started to heal. Now I just need to work on those muscles. I gave those ladies a big hug for coming to Arusha for ME! lol Told them they were an answer to prayer. : )
I love how the Lord answers prayer. Sometimes its not right away, and sometimes it is. His timing is always perfect and He is the only one that can see the bigger picture. So my back is feeling better and my faith was boosted. I serve an amazing loving father!!
