Toothache healed

Chris Martinus

I had a tooth coming in, and one day after sports it started to hurt very badly. When I went home, I told my mom. We wanted to call my Sunday School teacher for help through prayer, but since the phone lines were down, I could not phone him. I ended up taking some painkillers, but they didn't really help.

In the morning my tooth was still hurting. The phones were finally fixed, and so I phoned my Sunday School teacher and told him the problem. He told me that God made everything right and that He made no such thing as a bad tooth. My teacher also said that if you took the sun into a cave in order to show how dark it was inside, there wouldn't be any darkness because the sun would fill all that darkness with light. In the same way, since God is everywhere, there isn't any room for anything bad. His love is the light that gets rid of that darkness called "pain."

These thoughts comforted me and made me understand how God is present wherever I am, and so powerful. My teacher said that he would pray for me.
