--
and another of life's challenges. Confronted with
the evidence of a Grade IV malignant brain tumor,
my experience of life soon changed. Surgery,
radiation, and a shortened chemotherapy regimen
left me physically and emotionally exhausted.
Against my doctor's wishes, I stopped taking
chemotherapy in January 1996. There is no medical
"cure" for brain cancer so I set forth
seeking a miracle and an opportunity to serve a
God that might graciously heal me. Throughout my
life I had often wondered about God -- His
existence, nature, and purpose for us.
Unfortunately, I had never comfortably resolved
these questions. This was soon to change.
In
February 1996 my wife and I attended our first
Christian healing class led by Hal Weeks. Just
hearing about such a class affected me profoundly.
Very shortly we witnessed the power of God's
Spirit in our lives. We began to immerse ourselves
in the literature and practice of "hands-on
healing", intercessory prayer, etc. The
manifestations of God's love and power brought
great comfort to us. Despite a reoccurrence of the
tumor (Grade II) in March 1996, my faith and
thankfulness continued to grow as God used me to
help others. For one year the recurrent tumor
remained. In March 1997, the area in which the
tumor had appeared was clear -- and remains so to
this day. Thankful for the steadfast prayers of
many and the power of God's Holy Spirit invoked
through the name of Jesus, this testimony is in
service to God so that others might seek a
personal relationship with His Son Jesus and
receive this blessing.
Note:
Frank is a living example of the truth of the
Hunter's teaching that any sincere believer can
learn how to heal the sick. As first a recipient
and now as a giver, the power of God's healing
power is being regularly manifested through him
and his wife Michelle.
