Devil tried to take me out..God said no

Oct 30 2006.around 9:30 pm I was crossing a busy highway on foot I was struck by an ford f150 at 60mph and I was thrown 105'. Left side of my head was crushed dislocated stomach behind my lung ruptured diaphragm they were going to amputate my right arm. I had 5 brain contusions and they shaved my head to drill it. They said I wouldn't make it through the night. My Father said NO .. It's not this knuckle heads time yet! Lol.. 6 months later and 8 or 9 surgeries later I'm walking , full use of my right arm .. A little throwed off( jus kiddin) this is just a small example of what my Father God has brought me through ..yet I still act like a knuckle head at times

What a great testimony! Praise the Lord for your healing haha sometimes I wonder if we act like a knuckle head just to get a little extra attention from God...but it may not always be the attention we asked for when we do so mischievously eh...when we could seek his face earnestly...That cracked me up what your Dad said....God Bless you for sharing this.

Amen! Who says that supernatural miracles do not occur today? You are living proof...and you can reach others effectively with your testimony....Let GOD open doors for you and keep this fire going!

I've a verse to share!

Amanda...I have read some of your posts tonight!
I'm proud of you young lady!
You have the Holy Spirit leading you tonight!
Hallelujah!
And I remember when you first joined you was so shy and nervous.
You have come a long way...in a short time.
God bless you sweetheart!



There's that dog! Lol

I am glad that you enjoy my way to be unique!

I am still praying for you.
God bless you

The fact that you are alive today telling us of this testimony is just another example of how graceful our God is. I will be praying for you so that you may be fully healed if you are not already. God bless not just to you but all of his children.

One thing that I've never understood is when someone has an horrible tragedy happen and then they come out of it or their body is healed and they attribute the healing to God. Ok, I understand the person saying that they believe God "healed" them. However, what baffles me is the fact that they DID HAVE an awful tragedy happen in the first place, and there is no mention of God concerning this part. You wouldn't need healing at all, had God simply intervened and just prevented the accident all together.
This is not meant to insult or purposefully offend anyone. But, I think as humans we often "notice the hits, and ignore the misses". Or, in this case, notice the recovery and ignore the fact that the accident was "allowed" to happen in the first place.
People DO recover from ailments and injuries ALL THE TIME! So why are we so quick to attribute "supernatural intervention" to a person's body healing, when we know that the human body is phenomenal at healing itself?
Just something to think about and ponder...

Praise GOD for your survival and thank you for the testimony

Trust me I've thought about it a LOT. I had a horrible motorcycle wreak that took the function out of my right arm. It's never coming back, and to be honest I was thankful in the hospital to God that I lived at all. That didn't last too long though because see in my younger days I was a scrapper, and that attitude never left my thinking. I didn't fight once I got older and the consequences became more than I wanted to deal with, but I kept the thinking. Example- I am somewhere and hear a guy just running his mouth being rude, in my head I would be like "he's being a fool, but I could whoop him if I wanted to and shut him up", and that would be enough to mentally allow me to ignore it. Well I was now missing my knock out punch, so I wasn't whooping anyone anymore. It slowly donned on me I was never getting my arm back, on top of that I was not going to get any monetary compensation for losing my arm. Just one thing after the other stacked up to the point I just wanted to die, period. I didn't want to live at all. Every 2 minutes for 2 strait years I thought about killing myself, but I had 2 sons here and I just couldn't leave them. First because I knew that no one would love them or take care of them like their father would. Second I didn't want to give them the "my dad killed himself" to think about the rest of their lives, so I was basically stuck here in constant pain and misery. I "thought" myself Christian before the wreak as well, but thought being a Christian was more a lifestyle than an actually real thing. I can promise you I wasn't praising God when going through all this. Well the day came when I had enough and alone in my room I didn't call out for the Christian God I thought I already had, no. I wasn't sure I even wanted to believe there was a God at this point, but I hit my knees and just gave up. I just realized that I was nothing and could do NOTHING to help myself out of the situation I was in. I woke up the next day new, I was halfway through the day before I realized I hadn't contemplated suicide all day long at all. It took couple more days before I figured out what happen to me that had changed everything so much, then about 2 month after that to pick my jaw back up off the floor after realizing all this God/Jesus stuff was so literally true. So I wasn't thanking God like you're mocking him and others for, no my accident broke me totally, but through that God saved me and I thank Him every day for the accident that took my arm and led me to truth. So your little "proof" there is no God comment holds NO water with me man, and I think you'd be wise to reevaluate your view on who and what God really is.

What a powerful testimony! All glory and praise be to God forever and ever.

Amen nothing to big for God

Thank you for sharing your beautiful testimony! If it wasn't for Christ I'd probably be without a soul right now. Praise God!

Thanks for sharing your message of hope. I think at times I too am tested and when I hear story like yours it gives so much hope. I thank God so much xx
