Primary message - Your Legs Are Not What You Are!

I had been inattentive to my type 2 diabetes for many years, while still in the service. It became very noticeable shortly before retirement. Still, I did not totally arrest it, with the exception of medicating pills. Then about a year ago, I began to experience prolonged periods of gout resulting from the diabetes. In the Fall of 2016, the two became very active in my feet and lower legs.

Shortly after Christmas 2016, they flared up beyond control, so I sought medical consultation. By mid-August both lower limbs were in serious trouble, and it became advisable to amputate below the knees.

I am relieved to tell you that the surgical, recovery and healing processes were much less traumatic than I expected, as evidenced by less pain and discomfort than is common by report.

What I did not expect, is the ‘real story’ in this experience. Let me explain:

Between August and October 2017, I received four (4) messages from God and two (2) from my long deceased mother in heaven. My mother alerted me to what God was going to do in my time of major medical experience. God made me fully aware of what He was doing in my life from birth, all along my eighty (80) years on this earth, and throughout my hospitalization. He went on to prepare me for future experiences as well.

The messages all came in written form, just as clear and as precise as could be presented.

Note: a Comforter had been provided to me, and it is through her that my messages were directed. Allow me to provide a few extracts from those messages, to more assure you that they were for real.

First message, following first amputation -

a. to my humbled child (humbled indeed)

b. referred to my conversion and baptism in 1985

c. my mother’s joy in heaven for my submission

d. my conscious change to righteous living

e. life-long reference from birth to death

f. assurance “I am with You!”

Second message - after both surgeries -

a. review of miracles I had experienced while in hospital....most unaware

b. identified all family members who were present at my “coming out of hospital” for first time (between surgeries) which He had arranged.

c. His trust was anchored in me (imagine)

d. I am “God’s property” - in good hands

e. He’ll bless me if I bless others

f. He is my New Commander

Third message: during rehab

a. I am a NEW man

b. “it had nothing to do with the legs”

c. an “arrogant man changed to a “humbled man”

d. my experience like a similar biblical story which occurred on the Damascus Road

Fourth message - restoring and healing at home

a. pain, suffering, struggle and persecution all reap reward

b. rewards include: perfection, stability, strength and settling.

c. I am never alone

d. my deceased mother in heaven was crying with joy

e. I must count my experience....All Joy!

As I indicated at the onset, this is an abbreviated and paraphrastic account of the four(4) messages from God. To anyone who wishes to learn the complete and exact original messages, I am more than willing to provide a 36 page, 5" x 8" pamphlet containing colour photos and additional poems relating to this account. I will need postal address, etc.

Well there you have it, just as I experienced it. You will decide for yourself what you think of it all. I frankly was overwhelmed and remain still.

I thank God and pray that you, my PERI/PERO brothers and sisters, are happy learn of my very good fortune. Thanks!

Footnote: Allow me to extend my sincere apology to any reader who feels in any way offended by this bold expression of Christian faith. I, in no way, wish to disrespect any religion or non-religion; but to simply share my experience, while encountering major surgery. As well, I claim no personal credit regarding the experience I’ve related, for I was but a passive recipient of what I believe to be a miracle.

I tell you truthfully, I can’t justify my good fortune, but I am more than elated to have been part of a most remarkable occurrence. GB
