I had my first baby at 12; Jesus transformed my life when I was 19

Your stories of God’s intervention

God grew my leg!

About 14 years ago, I was at our church service in Johannesburg. That evening they were teaching on healing and at the end of the meeting we broke into groups to pray for people who wanted healing. I had been struggling with hip pain for a number of years (played a lot of squash when I was growing up, and at the age of 20 started to experience severe hip pain). I was now in my late 30s, and my mum was also in the last stages of cancer. Because of the stress, I used to sleep with my legs crossed and then wrapped round each other, which I don’t think was helping. I was in terrible pain, especially at night, so I found it very hard to sleep. I was aware that one of my legs was shorter than the other, and I didn’t know if that was part of the problem too.
