When I trusted God, I was healed
I was on a service trip abroad in Costa Rica, where I was spending my time helping turtles. I did a lot of swimming my first week and didn’t think much about it, but one day I felt pain in my ear. I thought it was because of all the time I had spent in the water. That day I avoided activities that involved swimming and anything else that I thought would make the condition worse. Because I wanted to be able to enjoy my trip, I just tried to pretend that the problem didn’t exist.
The next day, though, as I touched my ear, I found that the pain was more intense. I was worried that something bad was going to happen to my ear if I didn’t do anything about it. So I took a moment to sit down and pray. I knew I could to turn to God because I’ve had other healings in the past when I’ve prayed.
