Hello everybody, I am not so active lately but I cannot forget you all. I keep on reading your posts but had not have the time to compose a blog. I was so touched with these sharing that I asked the author's permission to post his article here:

GOD’S WAY OF HEALING
By: Mar M. Enabore

This article is my testimony regarding my experience with the Lord recently and is intended to share and spread His word of HOPE, FAITH, LOVE and CHARITY especially to those who are suffering from any bondage which is not from HIM. I hope that this will touch you and give you freedom in one way or another and feel the presence of the Lord that each one of us will realize that He does leave us and is always with us in whatever situation we are into. I am neither an eloquent speaker nor a prolific writer but only want to express in all sincerity the enormous peace I am experiencing right now after that encounter and here it goes.

Last Thursday (September 14, 2006) I consider myself lucky, lucky because I was fortunate to attend the healing mass conducted by Father Fernando Suarez (a Toronto based priest) that was held in Tent City situated at Rockwell compound.

I admit I have not known Father Suarez before not even his healing ministry and the many that he had healed every time he goes around the world. Until such time that my boss invited me to attend and came along with her because she knows that I am suffering from multiple illnesses such as cardiovascular atherosclerotic disease (CAD), hypertension, arthritis, esophagitis and doudenitis to name just a few...and all of these are really taking its toll on me now.....My God! The various medicines I am taking every day that sometimes difficult for me to swallow because of my esophagitis and the financial constraint to go with it are strong contributors in leading me to depression. But because of my strong faith with the Lord I lift them all up to Him and my strength really comes from Him that I survived my daily activities. I do not complain yet I submit and surrender myself to Him completely in order to get away from my anxieties and worries which I should not entertain in the first place because I always allow the Holy Spirit to dwell in me.

Going back to Father Suarez, the moment we entered the tent it was already full of people but was orderly seated (thanks for the organizers) I suddenly felt a warm air gushed at me at the entrance (but the place was fully air conditioned) then I acknowledge immediately the presence of the Lord by way of thanking and praising Him and holding back my tears as we were lead to our seats. While seated as we wait for the mass to start I was praying, thanking and praising the Lord for bringing me to the right place and all my doubts and negative thoughts were all banished. I felt secure and peace in my heart and was completely healed right there and then and all my body aches subsided and were gone without me noticing it.

At 3:30 PM the mass started and I saw Father Suarez, his charisma was really a charisma from the Lord, people were reaching for him for a blessing. The moment I saw him a vision occurred while he was walking to bless the people reaching his hand along the way towards the back for the processional together with the co celebrators he was radiantly shining, then as he walk down the aisle to the altar there was a bright light shining through from above all the way to the altar. I was looking up to see the bright light that was leading them.

I did not ask for a sign to convince me to stay yet I saw this vision and what that vision was only God knows. We participated during the mass and the healing started right after, you could see sick people on wheelchairs and stretchers and I could just imagine the sufferings they were into because I was seated behind them. Those in wheelchairs and stretchers were the first to be attended by Father Suarez in his healing.

While waiting for my turn I was praying for all who are suffering from all illnesses just like me especially the poor brothers and sisters to be healed also and did not have the opportunity to witness the healing mass live. I firmly believed that God heals everyone and everywhere if only we will give Him a place in our hearts. My boss who was seated in front signaled me to join their group so we will be the next after the sick people on wheelchairs who by the way were rejoicing and everyone there were clapping their hands seeing this people who were in wheelchairs before the healing now walking and some running. Finally it was our turn, while we were standing I closed my eyes and was intently praying for the intercession of the Holy Spirit and I saw a bright light in front of me and a hand touched lightly on my left chest then I fell down and was lying straight on my back on the floor with the bright vision still there. When I opened my eyes a lady was stretching her arm to assist me get up, I did not know how much time it took me to lie on the floor, then I walk to the bench nearby and sit there for a while and I was really shaking and was teary eyed what it was I really do not know, all I remember then was I was in a euphoric mood and kept praising and thanking the Lord for sending us a man to conduct this healing in His name especially in this generation. Then I had my confession afterwards and told the priest that I was healed completely right there and then with my encounter with the Lord and the priest praised the Lord and later gave me penance and absolution for all my sins confessed.

Afterwards we went out of the tent to give way for others who were waiting outside the tent patiently waiting to be touched and healed by Father Suarez who was scheduled to fly to California that evening for a five day conference. For the first time in the evening I was able to sleep well and was in great peace that my aura was noticeable and I felt once again according to my officemates and negative thoughts, anxieties and worries were no longer in me. I wish that everyone will have the opportunity to attend and be healed next time Father Suarez comes around. Just have your Faith.

I would like to take this opportunity to express my gratitude and to thank the people who in one way or another included me in their prayers and shows concern over my health. To my wife Beth and children because of their tremendous patience and understanding with me every time I have tantrums and to my bosses Ma’am Laarni, Ma’am Jackie and Mr. C. Da Silva for all the selfless support they have shared with me, you are so invaluable and will never forget you for the rest of my life and may you have more graces from the Lord. You are all the realization of my favorite song “Amazing Grace” which I often sang at home when praising and acknowledging the great works and wonders of the Lord. Because of my being healed from these illnesses that almost destroyed me I wish to redeem myself by way of proclaiming the goodness of the Lord and share His love especially to those who are in need most.

MAY GOD BE WITH YOU AND BLESS YOU ALWAYS.
