At the beginning of my third trimester of pregnancy, I developed pain on my left side lower back that often prevented me from walking, standing, and bending down without pain being present. It was terrible. I didn’t know how I was going to make it through the rest of pregnancy while also caring for three toddlers.

About three Sundays ago after service, a few of us were catching up in the lobby and my friend Allison asked me how I was. I mentioned how I had this pain in my lower back left side. She then called her two children along with two other children that were playing in the lobby alongside my middle child and another sister in Christ, Leah. We gathered and we prayed.

I believed in healing but wasn’t sure if it was for me, either way, I trusted and had faith that Jesus could rid me of the pain. A few moments went by and I noticed that I was standing on one side of my body so I felt the need to stand up straight on both my feet. As they were still praying I felt a pop on my back as I stood straight and immediately the Holy Spirit highlighted the scripture where Jesus said "let the little children come to me and do not hinder them for the kingdom of God belongs to such as these."

After they got done praying I had no more pain at all! I have been able to walk without pain for weeks and still to this day I stand completely healed with no pain. Praise Jesus for healing!
