God is so crazy fun!

Last night Dave and I went to Samuel's Mantle, an amazing prophetic-training course (http://www.samuelsmantle.com), and had such a good time! I always enjoy it there... truth is taught so simply and straight-forwardly... I always come away feeling such easy access to God and hearing him.

Well, last night, a cool little thing happened. We were all split up into pairs, everyone with someone they didn't know. I sat down with a woman named Carol. We were told to write out a prayer for each other, before asking any questions about eachother's lives... a great little way to realize how much you hear from God...

So I sat there writing, words and pictures easily flowing out of the Spirit for Carol... just general encouragement. Halfway through, I suddenly sensed that there was something wrong in her body... her right leg. I just kept on seeing it highlighted, and heard the words, "right leg, right leg, right leg." I thought maybe it was a symbol for something, but it seemed too clear to be anything other than her right leg being 'unwell'... not injured, but something was wrong in it. Anyways, I wrote down that God wanted to heal her in her right side... with lots of question marks and maybe's beside it.

When we had to read the prayers out to each other afterward, I went along, the general encouragement being well-received, and then I paused at the right leg thing... yikes... God, do I HAVE TO? These things are so RISKY to say! But I said it tentatively anyway... "and... I think... God wants to heal your right leg??"

Carol's eyes widened, and she exclaimed, "OH BLESS YOU!"

That's good, right? Is this relevant, I asked? She explained that about 9 years ago, she had a stroke that left her right side of her body with a lot of damage and loss of feeling. She was blind in her right eye and couldn't drive because of it, and had problems with her right leg, too.

It was so amazing that God spoke that. I couldn't believe that I actually heard it. I was so excited. God is so cool! I know that, but he always surprises me even more.
