Praise the Lord! My name is Richard, and I am a teacher by profession. I want to thank God for delivering me from a season of complete brokenness.
Toward the end of my college years, I began to suffer from a constant, agonizing headache that eventually led to a total loss of my senses. I found myself tearing up my precious books, destroying my mattresses, and wandering the streets in a state of confusion. Though I was an educated man, I lost everything—even my clothes. I remember a kind man in the church gave me clothes to wear, but in my state of mind, I tore them or sold them.
I would drift in and out of the church when I had moments of clarity, but for a long time, I was completely lost. However, I bless the Lord for the faithful people who never stopped praying for me.
Today, I am fully healed and restored to sanity! Not only has my mind been cleared, but God has also restored my career. I am once again working as a teacher, earning a monthly salary, and renting my own home. I want to encourage any parent or relative dealing with a loved one who has 'run mad' or lost their way: Do not give up. Trust the God who healed me. He is a healer, and He will hear your prayers. Amen.
