Cured Of Catarrh.


"I have been afflicted with catarrh for over twenty years. I had

consulted many physicians and used many remedies--all failed to help me.

In the Spring of 1874, I grew so much worse that life became a burden; I

suffered from dizziness and great prostration; I was urged to go to you

for faith cure. This was no new thing to me; I believed in it, yet found

it difficult to exercise faith for myself.



"My daugh
er went to see you, as I was then unable to go. I looked to

God, and believed from that very moment. My whole soul and body seemed

thrilled, and I began to gain strength immediately.



"In a few days I was able to go to your _Home_. You prayed simply that

God would take all disease from me. I have been entirely well from that

time; not only cured of catarrh, but tumors on my limbs were entirely

removed. I desire to give God the praise; I bless him that He does

forgive our transgressions and heal our diseases."



These instances are only a very few out of many, that have occurred, too

numerous for repetition here. It must be admitted, that God has most

signally blessed the faith of the inmates of the Consumptive's Home,

answered their prayer for others. In nearly all the cases of healing

which have occurred, the sufferers have failed in all other means, and

in their extremity have depended wholly in faith in God.



In speaking of them, Doctor Cullis says: "We do not give these instances

of the healing of the body, dear friends of Jesus, as in any degree

paramount to the healing of the soul; but that as the dear children of

God, we may claim all our privileges, and enjoy the knowledge of our

fullness of possession in Him who declares" _all things are, yours_."

Shall we in any manner, of smallest or largest import, limit the love

and power of God, who deigneth out of the highest heaven to declare,"

_The Lord thinketh upon me_." As an earthly parent separates no part of

the well-being of his child from his watchful care, so doth our Heavenly

Father not only "_forgive all our iniquities_," but "_healeth all our

diseases." Let us not confine faith operation to the saving of the soul,

while God's word is full of previous promise for the saving, keeping,

and healing of the body_.



"_For I will restore health unto thee, and I will heal thee of thy

wounds, saith the Lord_."
