MY Hubby is A "Walking Talking Breathing" Miracle of God!!!!

My Hubby is a Walking Talking Miracle!!!

My hubby got saved back in 1993, but, he just never could seem to give up his life of partying with his buddies!!! He was being really chastised by the Lord!!! He would go out drinking and end up talking about the Lord, and end up crying and feeling sooo guilty for continuing to live that type of life style.

I do have to say that he lost a lot of his partying buddies, since, a lot of them didn’t even want to hear God’s name mentioned sober, little alone drinking or drunk!!!

It was in the fall of the year 1994 when he received his rude awakening!!!
He had gone camping with a few of his buddies when he had the strangest experience.

They all went to the Red River Falls, which are just a hop and a skip from here!!!
It was getting dark, so, they placed a lantern on a tree branch, and were having a grand old time!!! It was during this time that my hubby saw something ordinary folks do not see, and they hadn’t begun partying, as of yet!!!

He looked up towards a tall rock and saw Jesus hovering above the rock. He said that Jesus was looking downward at him and He had wings which were folded behind Him!!!
He also said that he could see the crown of thorns as plain as day upon Jesus’ head, and he described the blood that was trickling down Jesus’ face, as water looks like when it is trickling down a window pane; with the exception, of the red blood!!!

My hubby was terrified and told one of his friends who were standing nearby, not to look…He told him that Jesus was looking down upon them!!!

He decided to move the lantern, and see if that would cause Jesus to disappear. He moved the lantern to another location, but, when he looked back, Jesus was still hovering and looking downward at him!!! On the fourth look, he had vanished!!!

My hubby was scared out of his wits!!! He could barely wait to get out of there….
He came home and told me all that had happened…I told him that I felt this was Jesus warning him that he needed to obey him, and stop the sinful way of life which he was living at the time!!!

Sometime around the middle of the next week, my hubby had another strange experience. He was awakened by an angel standing beside his bed. This angel was dressed in white!!! He was terrified, once again!!!
He said chills went from the top of his head to the bottom of his toes, and he never received a wink of sleep that night, either!!! I told him once again, that I believed these were warnings to straighten him up, and that he needed to get into the House of God!!!

My hubby was kind of stubborn back in those days. Friday night had rolled around again, and he was determined to go to a pig roast, and spend the weekend drinking and partying with his friends!!!
I never will forget the night of October 9th, 1994…This was on a Saturday night of the week, in which, he saw the angel, and the week after he saw Jesus!!!

My hubby had gone to the pig roast, and it was getting pretty late, so, I decided to retire for the night. Our 10 year old son begged me to let him sleep with me, which, was very odd because he never-ever wanted to sleep with me…So, finally I gave in and told him he could!!!

I was awakened around 4AM in the morning by someone standing over me. It was a lady, and she was shaking me and telling me that my hubby had been in a horrible accident. At first, I thought I was having some horrible nightmare, and could not figure out why this lady was standing beside my bed and telling me these things. I soon found out that this was not a nightmare at all, but reality!!! She said that I needed to get to my local hospital as soon as possible…She said that my hubby was in horrible condition, and that I needed to hurry!!!

I never will forget the drive down to the hospital. I had to drive pass the truck which my hubby had wrecked and it was completely totaled!!!! I can remember our 10 year old son saying, “Mommy if Daddy was going to die, I think I would know it, don’t you?”
I can remember trying my best to reassure our little boy, but, knowing in my heart that it was a possibility!!!

I arrived about 20 minutes later, and they were still trying to stabilize my hubby!!! His face and head had taken the entire pact of the steering wheel when hitting the tree head-on!!! He also had terrible brasions on his face, and he was in some type of seizure or something…I don’t want to go into the gory details about his face, but, it sure didn’t look good for him!!!

I remember the doctors saying that they had to resuscitate him!!! I had never been sooo scared in all the days of my life…I walked outside the hospital, knelt down and begged God to spare my hubby’s life and not to allow him to have any brain damage!!! I had a cousin, who didn’t look nearly this bad, who had wrecked his car, and he suffered some pretty severe brain damage…To this day, he cannot walk!!!

I didn’t care who saw or heard me…None of that mattered…All that mattered was that God heard me, and nothing else!!! All pride factors were gone…Period…

They tried to get a helicopter from UK hospital, but, they were in the Red River Gorge Area rescuing someone who had fallen over a cliff…They tried to get a helicopter from West Virginia, but, when they had headed out, and the weather was sooo rainy, foggy and bad, that, they had to turn around and go back…You have to understand my hubby was sooo mangled, that our local hospital weren’t equipped to take care of him!!!

My hubby still had not been stabilized an hour later…The doctors were still working on him…That is what they told me…
I can remember the paramedics actually running to get him inside an ambulance to get him to the UK hospital in Lexington, Ky. They would not allow me to ride…They said he was too critical!!!

I remember me praying all the way to the UK hospital!!! I have never prayed sooo hard for someone in my entire lifetime...

Once we arrived at the hospital, my brother was the first to go into the emergency room and see my hubby…They had to pack him out…It was that horrible of a sight!!!

The first time that I really looked at him was in the emergency room…They gave me a suction thing, and asked if I would help keep the blood suctioned from his mouth…I will not go into any further detail, here, since, this is really just too gory…

My hubby’s diagnosis was…Every bone in his face was crushed at least once!!! Of course, there were other injuries, but, these were the ones which concerned the doctors the most!!!

I can remember them telling me that they didn’t have much hope for him…At this time, I still had no idea if he had suffered any brain damage…The doctors were sooo focused on just keeping him alive…Of course he had tubes up in nose, was on a ventilator, and had a trachea in his neck!!!!

Without sounding too gory, here…I would have to say that his head face and head was as large, if not larger than a basketball!!!

The doctors waited a couple of days before doing the surgery on his face…That was the longest 171/2 hours that I have ever lived through!!! No, I did not mistype it, it was that long…They had to reconstruct his entire face…The surgeon explained it like placing pieces of a puzzle together, even the fragments…

The moral of the story is....The tissues of my hubby’s brain had not even been touched by the impact…So no brain damage at all!!! An answer to my prayers!!!

Although he was far from out of the woods when he was released on October 22, 2004; I will have to say that God took excellent care of him!!! His face healed really well, and after a year of running to and fro for his check-ups, he was finally released from their care!!!

You would never know my hubby had been into an automobile accident, if I didn’t tell you!!! His face looks just as normal as yours and mine, with the exception of one scar, which, he nor I, are in the least concerned about…People who don’t know us, would never dream that he had suffered in a horrible accident!!!

His nurse in ICU came up and went to church with us, as promised!!! Every doctor, nurse, and staff member in that hospital said that he was a miracle!!!
He should not have even lived…He should have at least suffered some type of brain damage…His face should never have healed back to normal…The list just goes on and on and on…

We used to watch that TV show called “It’s A Miracle” and we talked many times about going on there with our story, but, we never did!!!

My hubby has attended church every since that day…No more partying and laying out with his buddies…He saw where God brought him from, and where he could have easily been…He serves the Lord faithfully now, and gives Him all the glory, honor, and praise!!!

BTW…I forgot to mention how I made it through that 171/2 hour reconstructive surgery…A lady called me and told me she saw my hubby in a vision in her living room while praying for him, and she said, “He is going to be fine!” I still get chills over this one!!! I clung to her vision and all the prayers which had gone up to Heaven…That is exactly how I made it through this horrible time in my life!!!

God is good!!! No doubt about that one!!! He is in the miracle working business today, just as He was yesterday!!! His power never changes!!! He is full of love and compassion for His children…He hears and He answers our prayers!!!

I pray that this story motivates at least one person on the forum!!!! It really was difficult typing this entire story out, and reliving those horrible images in my mind…I did it because I wanted God to receive all the glory, honor, and praise for He Is Worthy!!!

I also did it for those of you who feel forsaken and alone….God is there for you, and will always be there for you…He takes excellent care of His very own!!!

May God Richly Bless Each of You is My Prayer!!!

BTW...I forgot to mention how my hubby received help the morning he wrecked...He didn't even have a horn in his truck, yet, the neighbor who found him lying in the next door neighbor's yard, said that the sound of the horn is what awakened him!!! The horn just kept blowing, until, he finally went out to check what was going on, and found my hubby lying in the other neighbor's yard nearly gone!!!

We serve an Awesome God!!! God knows that this old beaten banged up truck never did have a horn, since, we owned it!!!!

Who but an angel of the Lord could have blown this horn????

All praise glory and honor goes to the King of Kings, and the Lord of Lords...Jesus Christ of Nazareth!!!!

Ms T what an incredible story and an awesome testimony to the miraculous work of our Lord and Savior. Thank you so much for sharing, it must have been hard to relive this!

Shifrah.... I can not begin to tell how difficult it was typing all of this out!!! I can still see these imagines in my mind...I refrained from all the gory details, since, it would probably make some people sick, and this is not my attention!!!

My attention is to tell others...It is amazing what a prayer can do!!! And to let others know how much God loves each and every one of us...When we think things are going terribly for us...All we have to do is look around us, and see how Blessed we truly are!!!

Hi Ms. T,

Praise God! Alleluia!!! Jesus, Yeshua= God Saves! I am so glad that your husband repented. He must have a special calling, He may not know it but the Holy Spirit will prepare him for whatever purpose the Lord has for him.

(((Hugs)))

I don't know how I missed this story last June.
But I did.
I read it the first time today. My vision is dim today but I got all the way through it.

God sure is good!!! That is such an eccouraging message.

It was at this time in June that I wasn't dong so well and my brother was fading also. He died June 27th. I guess that is why I missed this.

Thank you, Ms T, for sharing.
MJ
