In May this year, I was diagnosed with diabetes when my hemoglobin A1c level reached 7. Hemoglobin A1c refers to hemoglobin combined with sugar in red blood cells, and when blood sugar remains high, this level also rises.

Three years ago, I had a miscarriage in which the placenta remained in me for a while. Once a pregnant woman experiences such a miscarriage, she has increased chance of future miscarriage or difficulty becoming pregnant. At that time, I was in a very difficult situation to have a baby. I was under physical and mental stress from my work place and I was experiencing back pain. So, I decided to commit everything to God. On November 28th 2008, I went to Senior Pastor Dr. Jaerock Lee to receive prayer because I wanted to become pregnant. Senior Pastor said, "It is hard to conceive when either husband or wife has something physically wrong with the body." Since I had seen many couples in the church become pregnant by the power of God, I sincerely prayed that God would make my body proper to have a baby. For about 100 days following the prayer, I passed urine that looked like the milky-colored water left over from washing rice. I rejoiced with an assurance that God was changing my body. I tried to find things that were pleasing to God and quit my job to fulfill my God-given duty as a cell leader. My husband also supported me in my decisions. I shook hands with senior pastor with a faith that I would surely receive an answer and glorified God. I was as happy as a cloud floating in the air and waited for God's answer with confident expectations. One day in April I felt something strange in my body. I went to the hospital with a hopeful heart for checkup and knew that I had become pregnant. Hallelujah! We give thanks for the grace of God who gave me the blessing of pregnancy.
