A quick, decisive healing
Original in Spanish
One Saturday morning I was playing soccer, and while I was defending the ball, I jumped and twisted my foot and fell down.
The coach picked me up, and I was taken to the hospital. They took X-rays. I was praying and knowing that pain and sickness were no part of how God made me. The doctor put a splint on my leg and told me that I shouldn't take it off for 30 days, that I should sleep with it on, and not play soccer or even bend my leg.
I cried a lot because very soon we were going to a competition in a city called Jalapa, and according to the doctor, I wouldn't be able to play. Two hours later, my mom came and she prayed with me. She told me not to worry. She said that I was a perfect idea of God and nothing could harm me.
