To me nowadays, everything looks beautiful and everyone is precious. This is because, until not too long ago, I was at the doorstep of death but am now leading a renewed life after having been healed by God's power.
No Hope of Recovery after Collapsing from Cerebral Hemorrhage
On April 19, 2005, the back of my head began hurting and it was nearly impossible to keep my head up while preparing breakfast. Then all of a sudden everything in my sight became dim and began spinning. I did all I could to keep steady but ended up losing consciousness.
I later found out that my mother-in-law and younger son Young-min had called for an ambulance and I was carried to an intensive care unit at Daelim Saint Mary's Hospital in Daelim-dong, Young-deung-po District, where I was diagnosed with cerebral hemorrhage.
"She has no chance of recovery," said a doctor after evaluating my condition. Even if she does recover, she'll lose her speech and be paralyzed on one side of her body."
Just as the doctor predicted, I remained on the hospital bed unconscious with my arms and legs paralyzed, pretty much like a log.
Upon hearing the news, my mother, two sisters, and sister-in-law began clinging to God in repentance on my behalf and rending their own hearts in repentance as well. For they had seen time and again the countless works of healing manifested through Rev. Dr. Jaerock Lee, my family believed that God would heal me.

Regaining Consciousness by Prayer
With the aid of my family on Friday, April 22, I was carried to Senior Pastor Rev. Dr. Jaerock Lee by ambulance and received his prayer. "God, work in her so that she'll regain consciousness!"
I learned later that after finishing his prayer, the Senior Pastor said to me, "Wake up right away," and in firm conviction of God's answer and my recovery, my family immediately took all necessary steps for me to be discharged from the hospital. Upon returning home, I realized that I had somehow regained consciousness, and two days later I could feel that I had enough strength to lift my fingers.
On the morning of Sunday, April 24, I received another prayer from the Senior Pastor, who was even more brokenhearted at my suffering than ever before. After earnestly imploring to God for my recovery, he said to me, "Wake up soon." The very next morning, I began lifting my fingers, none of which I could even move until the day before, and I was given strength to stand up on my own the following day.
Rending My Heart in Repentance
By the consolation and prayer of Grand Parish Pastor Joong-won Lee, Parish Pastor Jeon-hwan Cha, and members of my district, I discovered I had relied on people and worldly methods more than God and such untruths were in me as a sense of attachment for others, greed, tendency to become hot-tempered, and anger.
When Elder Ik-sun Yoo told me to "Get up and walk," after worshipping together with him and when I obeyed, I was given strength in the legs and could begin taking steps. Yet, I developed thrombus in my left leg and learned after another evaluation that the vessels in my chest and legs were clogged.
Committing everything to God, I began looking for the sins I had committed from my heart and my thought. I also searched my heart to see whether or not I had sinned when one of Korea's broadcasting companies made a distorting and biased report against Manmin back in 1999.
I thoroughly rent my heart in repentance for merely having been an onlooker and not aided the church and the senior pastor even though I was a church worker, for having disappointed God as I doubted and asked myself, 'Why are such things happening to our church?' And finally I realized that all that was an expression of God's love that seeks to lead me to New Jerusalem.

By His Power, I am Whole Again!
On April 30, 2005, all my family prepared ourselves with fasting and offering, and received the Senior Pastor's prayer for the third time.
"Strengthen all organs in the body, and strength all the brain cells and nerves. May God's light dwell on her!"
I felt a strong flame of fire striking my body at the time of the prayer. I realized that on the way home, the pain in my left leg had disappeared and that I could straighten it and walk comfortably. Hallelujah!
My older son Young-doo couldn't contain himself from amazement. "The Senior Pastor's power is truly astonishing. I saw with my own eyes and experienced firsthand what I had only heard about!" As I repented each time I was reminded of my sins after my healing, God strengthened me more and more and I could soon resume my God-given duty as district leader.
This past January, I underwent a CT and MRI to give glory to God with accurate medical data, and their results revealed that I have been made whole again. The driver of the ambulance that took me to the hospital when I collapsed could only confess, "It's unbelievable that you're well again only after receiving a pastor's prayer. What a wonderful mystery!" The doctor who had diagnosed me with cerebral hemorrhage could only be dumbfounded.
I give all thanks and glory to my Father the living God who causes all things to work together for good, and also give heartfelt thanks to Senior Pastor Rev. Dr. Jaerock Lee for praying for me in his love.
