"He who did not spare His own Son, but gave Him up for us all - how will He not also, along with Him, graciously give us all things?" (Romans 8:32)
During a two year period when we lived in the U.S.A. we went on holiday to Rhode Island. We found a lot of Christian activity there so took advantage, seeing as I didn't have to go to work every day.
One night as we were preparing to go out Trish had a really rotten headache. We battled through and got the kids ready and we were nearly out the door when Trish said that her headache was so bad there was no point going. I was a typical husband. Now? She tells me now? We are all set to go! I said I would ask Jesus to heal her head. I had no faith but was going through the motions, I don't even know why. So I laid my hand on her head, my memory is that we were standing in a doorway upstairs. I prayed quickly. Then I dashed off to do the next thing.
Within minutes we were in the car and heading out. I asked Trish how her head was. Fine. Completely fine. Jesus healed her despite the lack of faith, despite the casual approach, despite the rush. And, as Trish has said, this was really not a very important thing. But He did it. A gift. Because He chose to. He even gives parking places! Jesus our King.
Hallelujah!
