Ever since then , my fingernail has grown a little crooked, but otherwise has been fine. In the last year or so, it has started acting up, aching and feeling tender at times, and whenever I would bump it on something, it would throb with pain for several minutes. Well, this morning I was getting ready for work and making the bed, and I hit that finger on the back of the bed, and it started throbbing with pain. I asked Jesus if he would touch my finger and take the pain away and the achiness that I&#8217;d been having in the finger. As I was talking to the Lord and looking at my finger, the pain instantly disappeared! It was like the pain just &#8220;popped&#8221; right out of it, and it has felt just fine since then.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color:#000000;\">So then, I came into work and was doing some work in the lab, and when I started unscrewing a cap from a bottle, I remembered that I had also been having some pain in the muscle\/tendon between my left thumb and forefinger (on the same hand as the finger that Jesus had just touched a little earlier). I could feel the pain and the weakness in my thumb that sometimes makes it difficult to grasp things tightly with that hand. So, I started praying again, and I thought, &#8220;Lord, you just touched my finger .  I know you can do the same thing with my thumb if you want to.&#8221; And he did! I started bending my thumb back &amp; forth, and grabbing objects on my bench, and there was no pain or discomfort, and the normal strength in my hand was there.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color:#000000;\">Vince<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color:#000000;\">============<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color:#0000ff;\"><em>Very thankful for the way the Lord is encouraging us lately to believe in his power to heal.\u00a0 He has done so much for us, and he keeps doing it!<\/em><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color:#0000ff;\"><em>jdc<\/em><\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>&nbsp; Good morning John, I had a really neat experience this morning.
