I have a black eye! Long story short, I jumped onto a 10ft, toppled, snow man, everyone jumped on top of me and in the process I either got compacted snow or a foot in the eye. At the time I wasn't really aware what had happened - I'm like a 'cat in the wind' when there is snow and fun to be had - so adrenaline played a huge part. Within a few minutes it had swollen up and was turning blue, over the next few days blue changed to purple and I was colour co-ordinating my wardrobe and makeup to match. A week on the swelling has gone and the purple is slowly changing to lovely autumnal yellows and greens. Needless to say I'd kind of like it to go now, loads of people have prayed for healing and I have noticed some change, I'm a HIP - Healing In Progress.
So last night I popped into Winco (supermarket) with my friend and in the queue got chatting to 1 of 3 Bethel students, as we were leaving they approached us saying they were on a Treasure Hunt and that 2 of them had felt a sensation under their eyes, they said that I was their treasure!!! and prayed for me, I felt warmth in the brusing but there was no obvious change. They then preceded to give me a few words of knowledge and thoroughly blessed my socks off. Adding to the coolness (if that's a word) was that in the morning I had been sat in He Brews (Bethel's coffee shop) watching a Treasure Hunt team getting ready to go out and I said to God "Someday I'd like to be the Treasure".
Now it was my friends turn, straight away they asked how her finances were, she explained how she had recently had a large unplanned expense and they all preceded to give her money saying that God had told them to get money out ready to give away, both of us left feeling totally blessed, humbled and loved by God.
So this morning I checked my eye and where the warmth had been the night before, a large chunk of bruising has dissipated!!!!
For all of you who are chanting "SHOW US THE EYE, SHOW US THE EYE" here is a 2nd day photo and a Today photo. The bruising that has gone was actually on and to the right of the tear duct but without - real time - photography its hard to show...
