This is how Christ came into my life. At the age of 18 God called me to accept Jesus into my heart. I started reading the bible. It was lead by the Spirit of God for the first time in my entire life. Everything made sense to me and was more than just words, it was alive! During this time God revealed Himself to me through my prayers and everything. I started to become very sick mentally. I couldn't sleep for months and I could not eat, and I went from being 180 pounds to 120 pounds. I was very paranoid and hearing evil things. My hair on my entire body started to fall out because of my malnutrition. I wanted to eat but never hungered for food. I wanted to eat to stay alive but, when I ate, I began to vomit. I was in constant torture. I lost the ability to care for myself like taking showers, brushing my teeth, normal things, basic thinking, etc. My gums in my mouth receded so much from my health that I could easily fit floss between each of my teeth without see-sawing. I decided to give up and die because it was absolutely unbearable. Holding my mom's hand in the rental car in L.A. I said my good-bye's to her and told her that I am going to die. At this time my mom took me to the emergency room. They took one look at me and sent for a psycharitrist. He put me into the mental hospital. This was the worst experience I have ever had. Patients in this place in LA threatened to kill me, so I had to sleep with one eye open. I cried out to God for help and one day a bird flew up into the barred window I was looking out of. That I will never forget. Never will God leave you, never will God forsake you. They diagnosed me as being schizophrenic and told me I would never be able to work or go to school. They said I would be on disability all my life, but God proved them wrong! I went from being in there two weeks to a day program where I live now. I went to church one night and at the end of service they had prayer for the congregation. I walked up on my own and told the elder couple that I had schizophrenia and that I wanted to be healed. Peggy starting crying and told me that it was an attack of the devil. They prayed for me and gradually three months later I was going to College and working for the Lexus dealership. God has begun a great work in me and is healing me of this mental disease. Not only that but God has also healed me of a pituitary tumor in my brain that was 8mm big. I had handled it the same way and received prayer and the next MRI scan they took proved that it was completely gone! What a miracle!!! The MRI scans I had before proved no change until I received prayer and God healed me. I repented of the witchcraft I dabbled in years before, tarot cards, spells, ouiji boards, etc. I really believe from experience that the mental illness was almost completely demonic. I really feel for all those who are mentally ill and demon possessed. These include those who are in the mental hospitals and people all over the world. I pray to God that He would heal and deliver all of them just like Jesus did 2000 years ago. I am proof that God still does heal in every way He did 2000 years ago. Not only that but He heals people through laying on of hands. I wouldn't wish my experience on anybody! I am a very strong believer in God's healing power and nothing is impossible for God. Your problems are nothing to God. Matthew 11:28-30 "Come to Me, all you who labor and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest. Take My yoke upon you and learn from Me, for I am gentle and lowly in heart, and you will find rest for your souls. For My yoke is easy and My burden is light" God has put more than five mentally ill people in my life to minister healing and salvation to lately. 2 Cor 3-4 Thank you for letting me share my testimony, Christian Manning lucent-@msn.com P.S.
