Healed of injuries from accident

Bill Nisbet

I’d like to express gratitude for a healing I had while working as the property manager at a camp for Christian Scientists. A week prior to Memorial Day 2009, work was in full swing as we prepared for the arrival of our first guests at camp. The grass on the grounds was growing at an amazing rate, and our primary mower was in need of a blade change. This is not an ordinary mower; it boasts an 84-inch cut, possesses five blades, and weighs in excess of one ton.

In order to raise the mower enough to allow me clearance to change the blades, I backed it onto a set of car ramps with the aid of a co-worker. As I was preparing to replace blade No. 4, I looked up and, to my disbelief, saw the mower inching forward off the ramps. I immediately rolled onto my stomach and attempted to slide out but was pinned under the machine as its full weight fell on me. 

With the weight of the mower on my back I feebly shouted for my co-worker to help. He rushed to my aid and after what seemed like an eternity, but was only a few moments, he lifted the deck enough for me to slide out. As I sat on shaky knees, he immediately began prayerful support for me.
