On Saturday, March 15, 2025, I went to a spa as usual. After coming back home, something unexpected happened to me. I felt strange and a little dizzy. With the passing of time, it went worse and worse, and I had difficulty keeping my balance. At first, I considered it as a temporary thing due to fatigue and didn’t pay attention to it. The symptoms worsened quickly and I couldn’t move properly including sitting up or standing up. It felt like my body was not mine, and I couldn’t move my body properly. Next day, on Sunday, March 16, the things were even worse. Even with a little moving of my head, I felt like the world was whirling around and suffered from severe nausea. I lost my balance and seemed to fall down immediately. It was so much serious that I felt like I was riding on a merry-go-round. I became increasingly dull and scared. Finally, I called 119 and was sent to the hospital on an ambulance. I received various tests including X-ray, MRI, and blood test, but didn’t gain a clear diagnosis. They said I would have to visit the hospital again on the coming Monday because my doctor was absent. I returned home and was reminded of the late pastor Jaerock Lee’s prayer for the sick recorded on ARS (Automated Response System). I barely played my smartphone and prayed for 30 minutes receiving his prayer from it. I looked back on my past days and tearfully repented of my lukewarm faith since the year of 2006 when I joined in Manmin Central Church. Then, I felt like the late pastor Lee came to me and laid his hand on my head in prayer. I could manage to attend Sunday morning service via GCN TV. I was so much touched at Pastor Soojin Lee’s message and when she prayed for the sick, I received it with a longing for the healing. At that very hour, peace overshadowed my whole body, and wind and wave calmed down in my heart. Dizziness began to subside. Next morning, to my surprise, I got up in a normal condition. I was able to keep my balance and had a clear head. I was recovered that much enough to go to my work. After that I went to the ENT clinic and got a complete medical checkup. The doctor diagnosed me with BPPV. The doctor said that BPPV happens when calcium crystals move away and enter semicircular canals that help keep one’s balance. And he said that the aggravation of the symptoms may cause them to fall down or to injure their body. The doctor gave me a medication I had to take for a week. But I didn’t take it at all because I was convinced that God had already healed me. God saw my faith and worked for me, so I was completely restored on Tuesday and able to go to my work normally. When I entered the office that morning my fellow workers were amazed and said, “You were so much sick, but how can you come to the office so healthy?” I glorified God, saying to them, “God healed me!” Hallelujah! I give all thanks and glory to God who healed me.
