Rev. D. Hathaway and Adrian – and after healing
AFTER 30 YEARS – A MIRACLE
Katie Morris and David Hathaway
Adrian stood in front of David with a twisted face and body. A speech impediment made it hard to understand what his problem was, but we could see that his hip and right leg were badly crippled.
In the name of Jesus, by the power of faith in His name, Adrian’s face and body literally ‘untwisted’. Suddenly he could speak clearly. He bent down and took the calliper off his leg. His face shone!
Afterwards he sat with us in the church café and we pieced together his story. When he was a boy, his father was attached to the British Embassy in Bulgaria. He was 9 years old when, in 1969 he went sledging down a ski slope in the mountains outside Sofia. Faster and faster he hurtled down a slope which, he said, was as sheer as York Minster spire! Then the accident happened and he was in a coma for over 3 weeks. When he came out of the coma it was with severe head and body injuries, and the mental age of a 2 year old.
Now his face was alight with the miracle of healing! He and his mother-in-law were laughing because he had just called his wife from the café filled with noisy, happy Christians. “Where are you?” she had snapped. “You’re in a pub, you’re drunk!” She only believed his story when her own mother confirmed it was true!
One week later Adrian called our office. “I couldn’t have talked to you like this one week ago!” he said, referring to his former speech impediment. Although he had made good enough recovery from his accident to be able to work and even to marry, lately his condition had seriously deteriorated – as he said, “My injuries caught up with me!” He could only drag his right foot and, lying down, he could only raise his leg 3 inches. When he got home that night he demonstrated his healing to his wife – now he can lift his crippled leg as high as the good one!
Oh yes, and of course, he accepted Jesus into his life!
