Praise Him for Healing

I remember once when I was in the Army Band in Japan and playing on the unit's basketball team that I was blinded after having had someone stick their finger in my eye. I couldn't see any light or anything. I prayed about it that night and went to bed. The next morning I could see clearly as though nothing had happened. Since there was obvious evidence that something had happened (a bruised eye that was very red and a scab on my eyelid) I went for medical exam & treatment. The doctor who treated me said he didn't believe in healing after I told them I had prayed and he referred me out to a retinal specialist. When I was cleared by the specialist & sent back to the first doctor & was tested again, my vision in the previously blinded eye had continued to improve! Though he said that the eye is an amazing thing that could get better after injury, he wasn't willing to say that it was normal to have such improved vision after having been blinded. The retinal specialist however did believe I had been healed and said he had seen similar things when others had reported they had prayed in the past.
