He Healed My Feet

Jenny Payne (Palmetto, FL)

This is my testimony of healing from God through my 4yr old son.  First let me share a bit of the history prior to my healing.

For the last 8 years I have walked in pain, I've had as many as 16 sores on the bottom of my feet. For the first 5 or so years I put up with the pain, waiting for the sores to go away. Finally one day I couldn’t take it anymore. I made an appointment to see my doctor. He immediately referred me to a foot doctor. The foot doctor was un-sure of what these sores could be. He took cultures and sent them off to the lab for testing. The test came back as “Unknown”. Weekly I would see the doctor; he would trim the sores and apply an acid type medicine. After a few months with no change he referred me to his colleague. This doctors approach was much more aggressive. She preformed Cryro Surgery (freezing of the skin) on me weekly. This was having little or no effect. She decided that surgery would be the only way to get deep enough to rid whatever this was. So, I chose to have the surgery.

Surgery was scheduled the week before Christmas. I wanted this over no matter what the cost. Little did I know my wounds would take forever to heal. The pain from recovery was far worse than I ever imagined. I couldn’t truly walk for 2 months.

After a few months, my surgery wounds had healed and most of my sores were gone. I couldn’t believe that after all that, I still had these things on the bottom of my feet. I continued to see the doctor weekly. I then decided that maybe I was seeing the wrong type of doctor. So, I made an appointment with a dermatologist. At this time there was probably 8 or so sores left that the surgery didn’t take care of.

The dermatologists approach was similar to the prior doctors but with even more aggression. Weekly she would cut each sore as deep as I could bare, then she froze each one following with an application of an acid type medicine. This went on for a year.

Finally one day I had enough. I called the receptionist, told her that I needed to cancel my standing weekly appointment because I was putting my feet in Gods hands.  So I did. I prayed like crazy. Other people prayed for me also. I stopped all the medicine; I stopped all the crazy remedies like putting duct tape on my feet. I completely stopped obsessing over these sores. I truly just let it go.

Now, my four year old son has been with me threw all this, his whole life. The weekly appointments, the wheelchair, the bandages, the medicines. He has seen it all. He took care of me after my surgery.

A couple of months ago I asked him to pray with me for healing. He laid his hands on my feet. (something I would never let him come close to) The compassion of this child was so beautiful. We began to pray. The moment was amazing. When we were finished praying, he told me that I would be all better now because God took care of it. Wow, what faith! He declared it; there was absolutely no doubt in his mind he knew God healed his mommy.

He was right within weeks I could see the healing take place. Chunks of skin that I used to have cut, burned, froze, peeled off was now falling off on its own. Right before my eyes! God took it all away! Just like that! Our God is so wonderful! He deserves all the glory! All we need to do is trust Him He never fails!

I look back at the changes in my life that has happened through this. And I understand. God is so Wonderful, so Amazing, so Beautiful, and so Glorious!  I am so thankful that I know Him.
