I woke up on a Tuesday morning with a headache and a temperature. But I didn't want to miss school that day, because we had something happening in the afternoon that I had worked very hard on, and it was also picture day.
My mom came into my room and I told her my problem. We immediately started to pray. We prayed to see me as God's perfect child, not subject to sickness. A Bible passage that I prayed with was "Trust in the Lord with all thine heart; and lean not unto thine own understanding. In all thy ways acknowledge him, and he shall direct thy paths" (Prov. 3:5, 6). I knew that God is perfect and can't be sick. And since I am God's reflection, I couldn't be sick either.
