A most common miracle

Growing up I saw many many miracles.. Some I have described here. But one particular miracle of instant healing happens regularly, often, monthly and sometimes weekly.

It was simple... Back pain. Anyone complaining of back pain would receive this approach. I do not know where my dad saw or came up with this idea. But it worked 99% of the time.

He would have them sit straight in a hard chair. Like a folding chair. Tell then to relax. He would pick up both feet, holding then together, lightly pressing on the heels. Invariably the length of the legs would be of by an inch or more, one leg obviously longer. Then he would pray without moving. As he prayed, the short leg would instantly grow to the length of the other and within seconds be exactly the same. The person could then stand and find zero pain in their back.

Sometimes this was dramatic. Like a limp or a cripple healed instantly. Sometimes just s sore back. But it always worked, even to skeptics. Some tried to prove it was a scam, but were  ultimately healed against their expectations.

Scam? No. I personally watched this hundreds of times. I analyzed it as a skeptic, but no trickery here. Was it just relaxing muscles in the back that lengthened the leg? Probably... Was that a miracle? Definitely.  In the later years he didn't even pray, just pick up their feet, watch them grow to match, then thank Jesus for healing. He said as his own faith grew, god honored that in this way.

Simple, common, miraculous. Good care s about the little things!
