There was a time when even Jesus prayed twice, because the person's eyes weren't completely healed the first time.
I did not hear her say "I have not felt anything in my legs in twenty two years".
I heard a preacher say something like she "normally has no feeling, but she can feel our hands on her legs..."
Quite honestly I take statements like that as a grain of salt - means little or nothing. Additionally, I have heard ministers preach emphatically that those wanting full healing should/must confess that which is not as though it were. The resulting factor (for me) has been a complete lack of credibility for those who confess and teach this. We simply no longer know what is truth and what is wishfulness disguised as "faith".
I so hope this woman is healed miraculously or otherwise.

The woman who leads the women's prayer group in my church and I were talking about 3 weeks ago about what has been happening up there in Alabama-- I believe the church is in the town of Daphne, not too far from Mobile.
One thing I do know, this woman of God who knows how to pray and leads others in prayer told me that she believed that what was happening up there is the "real deal" because of the people involved that she knows personally.
She said some of them may have a Oneness background, but most of them didn't. She also said it didn't matter-- which I found reassuring to hear from such a woman of God as she.

I have to admit to being a skeptic, too. I guess that comes with the territory when you've been raised in church.

I agree. If we could see her work with her PT last week, we could tell. The guy with a huge camera on his shoulder tells me to wonder if this was scheduled.
Timmy, you know better than that! If this was a week later would she have still been wearing the same blouse, suit, earrings, necklace, etc.? You know "church ladies" don't do that!
