Long story short, I was jumped in an alley and suffered multiple sub arachnoid brain hemorrhages. I was hit with a pipe 15 times in the face and head. Up to that day in our dating relationship we had debated over and over about the bible. She had church elders calling me and even convinced me to go to a service to check it out. I went and slipped into and high priest meeting or some big shindig with old men only. About 60 total I guess.
The guy said that "God told Elijah to kill the prophets of Baal. I raised my hand and they were so upset. That I would interrupt but I was a new convert I had guts and knew he was wrong. So I said "The bible doesn't say that" he was disgusted and said sure it does, and preceded to read it in front of everybody and stopped in mid verse and said with a tomato red face. "Oh it doesn't say that, you are right" I said thanks and told them that I just prayed before walking in there " God if this church is right then show me and if its wrong show me."
So I grabbed my bible and walked out!
The debate with my girl friend continued on and on. For about 6 months. I was in the wrong place at the wrong time doing the wrong thing. and got caught up in an alley with some old Ganstr. and he turned on me and surprised me and tried to out me. With a pipe.
(This is my wife's story of what happened.)
That night I was rushed to the hospital and on life support. Revived several times throughout the night. My girl friend was contacted while at work and she stood at the side of the only thing she had in life. Mangled and bleeding, cut and bruised.
The doctors said I wont make it through the night. They asked my scared shaking crying girl friend to leave because we weren't married and weren't fam. Her family disowned her because of their family tradition and culture and her Boyfriend was Mexican. With a long pony tail. LOL
(I think the pony tail was the straw breaker.)
(This is my wife's story of what happened.)
Seriously, She left broken knowing only that I was in a coma. They said if I was to recover I'd be a vegetable all my life. She got to the apartment, knelt at her beside, and had an "all night prayer meeting." She plead with God to Bring me back to life. She said Jesus I believe what my boyfriend has been telling me about you, I believe you are 1. If you would save his life I will give you my life, and she completely surrendered to him that night. God gave a scripture John 14:14 - If ye shall ask any thing in my name, I will do it.
She arrive at the Hospital the next morning feeling different. She went to the ICU to see me. She came to the nurses desk and asked for me and asked my condition. They told her that I came out of my coma a couple hours earlier. My wife said how/ and they said we cant explain it, some man walked into you boyfriends room and he sat up in his bed and began to talk to the man as if he knew him. They prayed and the man left, your boyfriend laid down and he is resting but in stable condition!
The next several months as a quadriplegic was intense. I had to learn how to eat, use my hands my toes my arms everything. They kept saying Id never lift my head , then Id lift my head. They'd say Ill never count again, then Id count. They said Ill never walk then I ran. The doctors said it was a complete miracle to have that much blood in my brain and to have recovered.
(That is my wife's story)
The only thing I remember was witnessing to everyone about what God had done for me.
(That is my wife's story)
I taught bible studies from my hospital bed, when I didn't know my name I knew who Jesus Was!
To this day we have no idea who that man was that prayed for my in my room that morning. At the time my pastor was out of the country and I was 700 miles away from home.
That was 18 yrs ago, To God Be the Glory!!
So the end is My EX-Mormon wife is a Godly Apostolic mother in Zion, that prays for her kids, husbands ministry and the city God has burdened our hearts for.
