Fw: 148-I have been healed of pulmonary tuberculosis by faith!

I have been healed of pulmonary tuberculosis by faith!

~ Sun-Kyo Park (Daejeon Manmin Church; 12th Grade Mission) In April 2007, all the students at my school took a medical checkup and I was advised to undergo a more thorough exam at a hospital as I could possibly have pulmonary tuberculosis. A CT scan on Friday, May 4 revealed that although I did have pulmonary tuberculosis, as it could not ascertain whether or not the tuberculosis was active, doctors told me to give it some time to observe the progress. About a month later on Saturday, June 9, I was diagnosed with active pulmonary tuberculosis and told to undergo drug treatment for the following 6 months. As I wanted to be healed not by drugs but by faith alone, I came up to Seoul on Friday, June 29 and received Senior Pastor Rev. Dr. Jaerock Lee's prayer. As I had seen countless people receive God's healing of all sorts of diseases, I thought all I needed to be healed was prayer. I had a surprise waiting for me, however. A CT scan on July 7 revealed that tuberculosis lesion had actually progressed further. 'Uh-oh¡¦this is not right. What happened? Why haven't I been healed after receiving prayer?' I was seized by fear. Coughs and occasional chest pains tormented me but the greater pain was in my heart. I began looking back at myself to figure out what was wrong. This is when I remembered having seen the things I should have not seen, done the things I should not have done, and gone to places from which I should have stayed away. Every chance I had, I saw violent movies about martial arts or organized crime, went to karaoke bars and computer gaming centers, and behaved inappropriately. There had even been times when I skipped Students' Services to hang out with friends. I participated in "The Nationwide Students' Summer Retreat" and "The Meeting for the Sick" held at Manmin Prayer Center during the fourth week of July and the first week of August. After thoroughly repenting of all that I had done in God's sight, I became certain that I would be healed upon receiving the Senior Pastor's prayer. After receiving his prayer again on Friday, August 3, another CT scan on August 16 revealed that the tuberculosis lesion had been markedly reduced. Following an exam during a visit to the hospital on Saturday, January 12, 2008, I was told that I had been completely healed of pulmonary tuberculosis. Hallelujah! 1. Before healing (creation of pulmonary nodules leads to active pulmonary tuberculosis) 2. After healing (disappearance of pulmonary nodules)

Fw: 147-A Copy of Manmin News: Mighty Force That Has Transformed Me

A Copy of Manmin News: Mighty Force That Has Transformed Me

~ Deacon Dong-Ho Kang (Manager, IBM Korea; President, 1-1 Mission) After graduating from college, I began working at International Business Machines (IBM), a world-renowned computer and software company. My life, which I expected to be a smooth sailing from that point on, was becoming increasingly tangled up. Fear, anxiety, loss of will... completely incapable of exerting any control over my life... "Why don't you handle the presentation of this project?" 'How in the world am I going to do that in front of scores of clients?' My heart sank the moment I heard my boss entrusting me with the upcoming presentation of a newly developed project. Always an introvert, I even suffered from stage fright. I had been afraid even before I began working here. Ability to give persuasive presentations in front of a large audience was the key to surviving in a fiercely competitive working environment. For me, however, it was more than a burden; it was a source of tremendous pressure. I could barely calm myself when I took some sedatives 30 minutes prior to each presentation I gave. I realized things would get even more difficult if I relied on medication but I had no other choice. In these repetitions of life, I became extremely sensitive and was held captive by constant restlessness, and there was no way for me to relieve the stress. My heart would beat irregularly and I found it difficult to concentrate. It was difficult to pay attention to the conversations I was having with others and oftentimes, I felt as though my head was filled with a fog and I really couldn't think of anything. I went to see a specialist in neuropsychiatry for treatments but they were not helpful. I even followed the teachings of the Dahn Yoga Center and performed exorcism. My symptoms only seemed to worsen, however, and at those times I felt as though I had chained myself to a huge rock and was jumping into the ocean. On top of all this was a constant ringing sound in my ears that tormented me except when I was asleep. There was never a moment of peace in my life. "I think I need to take some time off work." By this time, I was unable to do my work, much less live a normal life. When I told my boss my intention after much deliberation, he tried to stop me at all costs. "What are you talking about? Don't you know that you'll be at a huge disadvantage if you took time off now? So I lived day after day, desperately trying to press down my despair. My mind and body were reaching their limits. Things didn't improve. Unable to tell whether all this was the reality in which I was living or a dream I was having, I could not see an end to it. "Dong-Ho, what are you up doing to these days? A few of our classmates are getting together this Saturday. Do you want to..." "I think I'll pass. Sorry. I'm really busy." I gradually severed all my relationships. Then one day, a friend recommended that I attend church. Desperate, I visited many a church but that, too, turned out to be a vain attempt. I even thought of ending my life. A copy of Manmin News stuck at my neighbor's mailbox One day in April 2002, I was trudging along my neighborhood when I caught something in the corner of my eye. It was a copy of Manmin News stuck in one of my neighbors' mailbox. My heart began to beat. I put the newspaper in my pocket, returned home, and began reading it down. "Muan Sweet Water... works of healing..." I immediately felt this church was different. A few days later, I was to go to Singapore on business. I could not, however, get myself together to fly for many hours in an enclosed space. I became so nervous that I was unable to board the plane. I shed tears in disbelief at how feeble I was. Poor in spirit, I called the number for Manmin's Gang-dong Local Sanctuary on the Manmin News. After a few rings, someone picked up and Pastor Keum-Ok Choe, with whom I spoke for a few moments, visited me at home and we worshipped together. I was so grateful for this. A little later, Pastor Myung Sook Kim, 1-3 Canaan Mission Guidance Teacher advised me to join Manmin Central Church, and I followed it. I think it was Sunday, May 5 – Children's Day. Filled with grace and joy from listening to messages A week later, I attended "The 10th Special Two-week Revival Meeting with Rev. Dr. Jaerock Lee" and desperately clung to God. I didn't even know how to pray. When I confessed and expressed my distressed heart in tears, I was at peace. There were so many people receiving healing that I couldn't believe what I was seeing. As I watched countless people testifying, my anxiety on which my very existence heavily depended seemed and felt incredibly small. While listening to Dr. Lee's messages, I felt like I had met a counselor. I was dissected and given a hope for the future. As I listened to the Senior Pastor's message tapes again and again, I strove to live by the Word. Then one day, boldness began to grow within me and anxiety was no longer an issue. I felt gratitude and joy, neither of which I ever expected to experience in my life. Smile never left my face and when I was walking down the street my eyes, which had been affixed to the ground, now looked up to the sky. Flowing in my heart were the warmth of the hope for heaven and the love of our Lord. A bold Christian trusting only in God I can now comfortably carry on conversations with people. A consultant analyzes a variety of internal problems within companies and provides them with suggestions for improvement. Fresh ideas and good health are a must. There are many meetings to attend and presentations to give in front of large crowds. Had I not met God, it would have been impossible for me to stay in this industry. In the heart of someone who was constantly worrying and anxious about everything and anything, God has planted boldness and peace. I did my work with the heart and the attitude to serve others. As a result, I was recognized for my dedicated work and promoted to the position of manager. I couldn't even dream of such things in the past. Prayer has become a source of joy. From three to four months at a time, I work with different companies usually within Seoul. Therefore, whenever I begin working on a new project with a new company, the first thing I do is to look for a church at which I can pray. When I pray for half hour during lunchtime, I become immediately filled with the Spirit. God then also blesses me with new ideas and leads me to meet with good clients. God is the only One who could transform me and joy overwhelms me as I feel His delicate touch in my life day in and day out. I give all thanks and glory to the living God.

Fw: 146-My hair's growing again after I began spraying the Muan Sweet Water on my head!

My hair's growing again after I began spraying the Muan Sweet Water on my head!

~ Rev. Doo-Chun Shin (Chinese Great Parish Pastor) Beginning in January 2006, I began losing hair considerably; when I washed my hair, handfuls of hair just fell out. I went to get a haircut one day and the stylist suggested that I wear a partial wig. I tried one on and, satisfied with the way I looked, started wearing a wig from that day onward. The joy, however, did not last long; the maintenance of a wig was not easy. I had to adjust it so often and on windy or rainy days, it was just plain uncomfortable to be wearing a wig. To make matters worse, I lost even more hair after I began wearing the wig. As a reward for the revival of the Chinese Great Parish, I went on a pilgrimage to the Holy Land in May 2006. Because of the wig, however, I could not go to a swimming pool once and when we went to the top of the Eiffel Tower in Paris, I could not even get a picture taken because I was so afraid that my wig would fly away. At that moment, I felt so pathetic. Many other Manmin members testified to God's healing they had experienced but here I was, a servant of the Lord, concentrating every ounce of my energy to hold on to my wig. It was just embarrassing. I repented thoroughly for not having shown God my faith and began to commit everything to Him. Every night before I went to bed, I washed my hair, combed it, and began spraying the Muan Sweet Water on my head. A month passed without much progress but I wasn't disappointed. "God is strengthening my scalp," I told myself in greater humility and marched onward in faith. In the second month, hair began to grow back! I was so, so happy and the growth of my hair became faster day after day. On September 7, 2007, I took off my wig, testified to Senior Pastor Dr. Jaerock Lee that my hair had begun to grow back, and received his prayer by faith. He prayed for me, saying, "Let lots of hair grow on his head and let none fall off." After that, my hair grew back even faster and fell off considerably less. Today, my hair has grown back so much and so well that I no longer worry about losing it. It is extraordinary to hear the testimonies of people who have done the same by faith after hearing my own testimony. 1. September 3, 2007 / 2. October 29, 2007 / 3. January 13, 2007 What is the Muan Sweet Water? After it moved onto an island surrounded by seawater in 1999, Muan Manmin Church began suffering from the lack of a reliable supply of drinking water. The pastor in charge and church members desired in earnest to witness the same works of God who turned the bitter water at Marah into sweet, potable water (Exodus 15), and by faith requested prayer from Senior Pastor Dr. Jaerock Lee. In March 2000, God transformed the bitter seawater at Muan into sweet, potable water by the faith of Muan Manmin members and the prayer of Rev. Dr. Lee. Moreover, people who drink the Sweet Water and apply it by faith experience the restoration of health both in spirit and in flesh and receive God's answers and healing.

Fw: 145-[Unceasing Joy in Christ] Boo-Sam Kim & Sang-Mi Lee: "We have been blessed with our first child!"

[Unceasing Joy in Christ] Boo-Sam Kim & Sang-Mi Lee: "We have been blessed with our first child!"

Boo-Sam Kim & Sang-Mi Lee "We had been in torment, without child for 6 years, but we give all thanks and glory to God for blessing us with a child!" The birth of a baby girl born to Deacon Boo-Sam Kim (1-6 Parish), Managing Editor and a 14-year veteran National Assembly Correspondent at Sisa News, and his wife, has been causing sensation. By God's grace, they celebrated the birth of their first child after 6 years of marriage. Manmin News recently interviewed Deacon Kim. Q: Congratulations on becoming a father! How did you meet your wife? A: I met my wife Deaconess Sang-Mi Lee in January 2000. Q: When did you collapse from diaphragmatic hernia? A: At around 7 o'clock in the evening on March 13, 2003, about six months after the wedding, I collapsed from an acute abdominal pain and was carried to a hospital on an ambulance. In the emergency room and in an unbearable pain, I cried out to God, "Please, save me!" for a long time and lost consciousness. Then in a vision I saw my wife, standing in rain with one rubber shoe on and the other on her foot, repeatedly and tearfully calling out my name. I felt so terrible for my wife and, vowing to live, I prayed to God again. After being diagnosed with diaphragmatic hernia and undergoing an operation, and while recuperating in the recovery room, I saw a circular rainbow after rain stopped and the mural in the Main Sanctuary of Manmin Central Church. I was at peace. Q: How did you join Manmin? Have you noticed any differences within you before and after joining the church? A: I met with Senior Pastor Dr. Jaerock Lee for the first time in May 2000 for an interview. At the time my family had for generations worshipped idols, so the moment I sat down with the Senior Pastor, I began trembling in tremendous fear and that interview did not go well. Also at the time, I was in love with such worldly things as drinking and smoking. Led by Deacon Moon-Hak Ma shortly afterwards, my wife and I joined Manmin Central Church. I obeyed the Senior Pastor's messages, some of which stressed believers to "Avoid every kind of evil," "Never befriend the world," "Keep the Sabbath holy," and the like. It's been a long while since I quit drinking and smoking altogether, and I am making every effort to obey every bit of God's Word and to enter whole spirit. Q: How did you end up carrying the Senior Pastor's columns on Sisa News? A: The Senior Pastor, who leads all souls around the world to New Jerusalem with messages of life and the power given to him by God Himself, always stresses that he is merely a servant of God, that all power belongs to God, and that God alone is to receive all glory. Moreover, just as we find in the Bible, the Senior Pastor manifests extraordinary miracles and wonders. I was disheartened, however, to see a church, a true servant of the Lord, and the works of God being judged and condemned by some people so I began publishing his columns on Sisa News and emailed it to my closest friends and fellow churchgoers. I first began emailing some 50 people; 3 years later, I send the Senior Pastor's columns via email to more than 1,500 people. Q: What did you and your wife try to have a baby during the first 6 years of marriage? A: I've always loved children and my wife also hoped in earnest to have children. She tried very hard to have a baby. She had all types of dishes that would supposedly help her become pregnant, herbal medicine, and even artificial fertilization while going to a specialized hospital for women for a year. Q: When you bound yourselves to God in prayer for a child, in what way did you and your wife pray to Him? A: When I was stricken with urethral stone, I was not cured completely at the hospital. I repented thoroughly, received the Senior Pastor's prayer by faith, and was healed completely of that. Thinking God to be the only One who could provide for us everything and anything, my wife and I set "the blessing of pregnancy" as a prayer topic of Year 2007, and clung to Him in prayer. On Sunday, January 28, 2008, we received the Senior Pastor's prayer for "the blessing of pregnancy" and afterwards, we prayed from the heart and kept the Lord's Day holy. After that, God sent us a baby! Q: How did you feel when you learned of your wife's pregnancy? A: I'm sure it is the case with every father in the world, but I instantly became speechless and I cannot adequately describe with words to this day the joy and gladness I felt that day. The news of my wife's pregnancy was a tremendous deal for all of us. Q: And even after you heard that the baby could be born with birth defects, you still said, "The child's been given to us by God. We'll go ahead with the labor"? A: At the 12 weeks of the pregnancy, a test was run on zona pellucida to see if the child would be deformed in any way and it was found that the baby's neck measured 2.5 millimeters thick. The doctor told us that if a baby's neck was 2.5 millimeters or thicker, there was a chance that the child could be born with Down syndrome or heart defects. He said that if the results of amnioscopy were normal, that would be good; if not, we would have to try having a baby again. So my wife and I received the Senior Pastor's prayer with peace in our hearts for the child conceived by God's grace. On November 21, 2007, my wife gave birth to a healthy baby girl, weighing 3.5 kilograms (about 7.7 pounds), and 49 centimeters (about 19.2 inches) in height. Q: Do you remember the first time you saw your daughter in the nursery? A: I felt like I was dreaming when I first saw Yoo-Seon. On that day, 18 babies were born but our Yoo-Seon was the prettiest! I was all the more grateful as she joined the Manmin family. I give all thanks and glory to the Lord Jesus Christ and God for blessing our family with a beautiful child! Hallelujah!

Fw: 144-He Who Has Given Me Wings of Sanctification and Helped Me Overcome My Limits

He Who Has Given Me Wings of Sanctification and Helped Me Overcome My Limits

~ Rev. Seok-Kyu Lee (Assistant Principal, Manmin Sunday School) In May 2003, I was in my seventh of ministry. After seeing time and again how books written on heaven and hell made a profound impact on people, I searched far and wide for published materials on these two spiritual realms. After reading a number of books on heaven and hell, I was shocked to find that countless pastors and church workers could end up in hell. I wanted to investigate further so I searched "heaven" and "hell" on the Internet and came across the website for Manmin Central Church. Listening to messages of sanctification Messages of Dr. Jaerock Lee on the church website gave me a thunderous spiritual shock and moved me deeply. I also came to understand many spiritual matters through "The Lectures on Genesis" and learned specifically about different levels of heaven and the horrific nature of hell. The messages planted seeds of true faith and, by enabling me to sanctify my heart, taught me time and again to come forth as the bride fit to greet the Lord on His return. They also helped me become convinced that Manmin was the congregation that would wake up people everywhere with the gospel of sanctification. I also urged my wife to listen to the messages. After listening to them, my wife, who had been praying for me to meet a spiritual mentor, rejoiced at God's answer to her prayer. Throughout the month of December in 2003, I set aside 40 days for extended fasting while continuing to listen to the messages on Genesis, and was deeply touched by them. Witnessing works of God's power Attending "The 12th Two-week Special Revival Meeting with Dr. Jaerock Lee" in May 2004, I was able to see Dr. Lee up close and meet with the Manmin congregation. There were actually two factors that troubled me in my ministry. One, the transformation of the flock was slow in coming and two, as a pastor my ministry was not based on God's power. Jesus preached the gospel while manifesting powerful works so that people could believe in Him but in our time, it is not easy to find that kind of ministry. Having been healed of empyema while I was in middle school, I had faith in the works of healing recorded in the Bible. For that reason, I wanted to lead a ministry based on God's power just like the apostles in "The Book of Acts," but I was too far detached from the reality. Yet, at Manmin Central Church I saw not only the works of God's power but also the light shining from Manmin members. Transformed by the gospel of sanctification, layman brothers and sisters were trained just as well and thoroughly as pastors and ministers. Healing of my daughter's atopic dermatitis by the Senior Pastor's prayer We began attending Friday All-night Services in March 2006 and experienced firsthand God's power as manifested through the Senior Pastor at "The Churchwide Summer Retreat" in August of that year. Our eldest daughter Ji-Young had been suffering from atopic dermatitis for years. When she was 7 years of age, the disease grew progressively worse and at nighttime, Ji-Young would scratch herself until her body bled and oozed in her sleep. During summer months, my wife and I had to bind her wrists so that Ji-Young wouldn't scratch herself. To the end, Ji-Young said she would be healed by faith. Then the disease, about which we all had been praying, went away completely at "The Churchwide Summer Retreat" when the Senior Pastor prayed for the sick from the stage. As I listened to the gospel of sanctification, I tried to share the messages with others even if they belonged to different denominations and tell them of the true faith. Unlike Manmin members who regularly hear the message of the truth and experience the works of God's power and thus come to possess true faith, there are many believers who profess their faith in God but have no experience of His power or presence and do not possess true faith. On top of that, after becoming certain that only the gospel of sanctification could alert the pastors and ministers in the last days, I wanted to share it with them as well. Assistant principal of Sunday School amidst His Guidance Still, God wanted me to serve Manmin. One night, my wife had a dream in which all my family was waiting to meet with the Senior Pastor and he said to us, "No matter how busy I am, I'll pray for you guys." My wife also saw the Senior Pastor in visions in which he told her, "I will help. Come to me." I also had many dialogues of faith in my dreams with the Senior Pastor. Then on February 25, 2007, my family and I officially joined Manmin Central Church and participated in "The Special Seven-week Prayer meeting" begun in March. As I prayed, I realized that working with the Manmin ministry would more quickly accomplish my vision of telling the world of heaven and hell. In fact, Manmin Central Church has been alerting the souls with messages on heaven and hell for the previous 25 years. I desired with be a part of the Senior Pastor's ministry and in the beginning of September 2007, I received his prayer and transferred to the United Holiness Theological Seminary as a senior. Obtaining priceless information and materials from professors and peers, I experienced the gospel of sanctification in greater depth and prepared myself as a vessel. In November, God assigned me to a precious position of Assistant Principal at Manmin Sunday School. I give all thanks and glory to Father God for leading me to Manmin Central Church that strives to lead even that one last soul to New Jerusalem, the best of all heavenly dwelling places, and for making me realize that only sanctification is His pleasing will. Hallelujah!

Fw: 143-Endless expectations and joyful restlessness! Dr. Jaerock Lee's messages were the source of greatest joy!

Endless expectations and joyful restlessness! Dr. Jaerock Lee's messages were the source of greatest joy!

~ Deacon Hang-Yeol Kim (Designer; Las Vegas, Nevada, USA) My family immigrated to Las Vegas, Nevada, USA, on January 4, 2000. Unlike Korea, however, the spiritual environment in our new home city was terrible for my wife, our two sons, and me to live in Christ. I constantly felt empty in the heart and there was nothing with which to fill the void. I listened to the messages of many pastors and served as a praise team leader, a member of the choir, and President of the Men's Mission but as my " inner being" remained unchanged, the emptiness lingered and my spiritual thirst only intensified. So I eagerly wanted to meet with God, a true shepherd. Listening to about 1,000 messages in 9 months In January 2007, I set aside 40 days to devote myself to prayer and remembered Dr. Jaerock Lee out of the blue. Having had prejudice against Manmin Central Church following a distorted and partial report aired by one of Korea's broadcasting companies in 1999, I immediately removed any thoughts related to Manmin. Yet, I kept thinking about Dr. Lee; my consciousness was telling me to stay away but the other side of my mind asked if I should at least check out for myself what was wrong with the ministry. The first messages of Dr. Lee I heard after visiting the Manmin website for the first time was the series " Heaven" and it was a collection of messages I had never heard anywhere before. I could not adequately describe with words the joy and the gratitude I felt at having found the true shepherd at last. The ensuing days were a continuation of endless expectations and joyful restlessness as I listened one by one to Dr. Lee's messages, my source of greatest joy. During the following 9 months, I listened to about 1,000 messages. Joining Manmin over the Internet; Experiencing God's power through handkerchief prayer On Wednesday, August 15, 2007, I joined Manmin Central Church over the Internet and God was extremely delighted with this; the very next day, He showed us a straight rainbow in the sky. Seated in the middle of a vast desert, Las Vegas sees rain only 3-4 times a year. My family, therefore, had never seen a rainbow before and it was very unlikely that we would ever see one in Nevada. My family and I stared at the clear rainbow in the sky in awe and later learned that from time to time God shows a variety of extraordinary rainbows to Manmin members. As I had seen such remarkable rainbows, I could easily acknowledge and understand it. In October 2007, I visited Manmin Central Church along with pastors and ministers from New York Manmin International Church. I had been praying for more than 2 decades for the salvation of my parents and, I asked Rev. Min-Hwan Joo, Pastor at Tongyeong Manmin Church to visit my parents at their home in Goseong, Gyeongsangnam-do. After sharing God's Word with them, Rev. Joo prayed for my parents with the handkerchief on which Senior Pastor Dr. Jaerock Lee had prayed (Acts 19:11-12). Immediately after receiving the prayer, my father threw away the cane he had used from the aftereffects of an operation and began walking on his own; my parents have been attending Tongyeong Manmin Church from the following Sunday. I am grateful and relieved as my parents are healthy and whole today. After such a powerful experience of the handkerchief prayer, I returned to the States with the handkerchief on which the Senior Pastor had prayed. Driving out demons and reviving the dead through handkerchief prayer Following my return to Las Vegas, my family and I saw an enormous circular rainbow in the sky above our house in the morning of Sunday, November 4. While looking up at the rainbow, I gave thanks to God as I remembered His covenant and blessings. Later in the day, I received a call from Kyung-Ho Min, whom I had known well. He told me his wife Brenda was demon-possessed, was in fear and torment, and asked me to come over and pray for her. When I arrived at their home, Brenda was completely suppressed by demons and avoided eye contact with me. I placed the handkerchief on Brenda and began praying boldly for her. She soon said it was too " hot," drove away my hands, and refused prayer. I kept on praying for her by faith with the handkerchief placed on her, and she collapsed, lost consciousness for a few moments, and came to herself soon afterwards. A little more than a week later, I received another urgent call from Kyung-Ho. Brenda had attempted suicide by overdosing on some medication. Having the firsthand experience of the power of the handkerchief prayer, I prayed earnestly to God, asking Him to manifest the power of the shepherd through the handkerchief once more. When I arrived at the hospital, Brenda was in a critical condition, having lost consciousness and with a tube connected into her mouth. The doctor in charge said her recovery was unlikely but I began praying wholeheartedly for Brenda with the handkerchief of God's power. At that very moment, I saw Brenda's hand move and I left the hospital a little later, fully convinced that Brenda would be okay. A few hours later, I received a phone call and learned that Brenda had come to sense. Prior to receiving the handkerchief prayer, the poison level in her body stood at 470; after the prayer, it dropped to 12. Brenda also gave me a call, tearfully thanking me for praying for her. I was so grateful to learn that the handkerchief of God's power was not merely something I just carry around but the power of the shepherd was truly embedded in it. I gave thanks to God again for keeping me within the realm of the shepherd as one of the Manmin flock. I give all thanks and glory to God! ~ Brenda & Kyung-Ho Min In the evening of November 13, 2007, my wife Brenda and I ended up sleeping in separate rooms after a serious argument. Even by the following morning, however, Brenda wouldn't get up from the bed. I tried shaking her but Brenda had already lost consciousness. I was so shocked and thought I was going to pass out. I brought her to a hospital and called Deacon Hang-Yeol Kim. After the quarreling, Brenda consumed the entire bottle of anodyne to commit suicide. The doctor told me that consuming 40 tablets of anodyne was so fatal that they could literally melt away the liver and, as it was more dangerous than rat poison, Brenda had a very little chance of survival. Upon arriving at the hospital after receiving my phone call, Deacon Kim prayed for Brenda with the handkerchief of God's power, and about 4-5 hours later, my wife became completely normal and whole again. She was discharged from the hospital and went back to work soon afterwards. I thank God for saving my wife. Kyung-Ho Min
