She was
raised in South Korea as a Buddhist. We met about 20 years ago and began to
have deep spiritual conversations. We understood what each other was saying; we
just put it in different words. When I explained to her about God creating us
in His own image, she got it and applied it. But still she felt religion was
basically foolish…. until something happened a year and a half ago that changed
everything.
“I felt something
was going on, so I told the storekeeper next door I was going home. She came by
the house later because she was worried about me. I told her I felt odd and
could she help me to the bathroom. She did and the next thing I knew I was on
the floor and had no feeling in my body.
My mind was
perfectly okay but I couldn’t move my hands or arms or legs. I felt I was
having a stroke. My husband passed away eight years ago and I didn’t have any
kids so I was ready to go. I asked my friend to pull me into the other room by
the fireplace and I told her I didn’t want her to take me to the hospital
because if it was my time to go I wanted to experience it. She said okay, but
she’d have to go home and print out a form to sign so she wouldn’t be in
trouble over this decision. I laid in front of the fireplace and started to
close my eyes to slip away. I said, ‘If there’s anything more, I want it.’ Then
it happened.
I heard a
strong male voice command, ‘Mi Sun, Get up and walk!’ Like a child I did just
that. I started to move, got up and walked around in the house. Then I went
outside and kept walking. That’s when my friend came back and saw me. She was
shocked. ‘Okay, now take me to the hospital. I want to find out if there is any
medical explanation for what happened.’”
They kept Mi
Sun overnight and did all sorts of tests and found nothing wrong. She knew it
was a miracle and that the God I’d told her about was for real. She told me
that since that day everything is different. And even in the time I visited her
in her shop, she mentioned God several times in our conversation and with
others who came in also.
All the many
years of Christmas conversations, and this was the best of all—to find out that
the Lord personally visited my friend and got her born again.
Love,
Carolyn
