It happened in 2020. One day it looked like a thorn got stuck in the right middle toe and I looked into it closely. But nothing was found there. The pain got worse with the passing of time and later I couldn’t bear whenever my toes touched anything. ...
Shohei Nakano (the first year of middle school, Osaka Manmin Church, Japan)
In February of 2007, when I was in the fifth year of elementary school, my mental stress reached its peak due to extra schooling and many assignments. As a result, the symptoms of atopic dermatitis that I normally had got even more serious. From constant scratching, my entire body was covered with blood and oozing pus. With itchiness around the eyes, I scratched to the point that I lost all my eyebrows. This lasted 2 years and 3 months. I became ashamed of my appearance and even avoided meeting people. While in elementary school, I could hide my forehead with long bangs. But things were different when I entered middle school, because as a dress code, I had to have short hair. Pastor Marco Kim (Osaka Manmin Church) and his wife, Pastor Changmi Lee, were well aware of my problem. So they earnestly prayed for the healing of my atopic dermatitis. And they kept telling me about other members' healing testimonies and planted faith in my heart. It was one day this June. Someone next to my class ridiculed me about my eyebrow. I came home heartbroken. As my mother saw me depressed, she asked. "Did something happen in school?" "Someone ridiculed me at school about not having any eyebrows." My mom said that we should give thanks and pray together, since God said, "Give thanks in all circumstances." Even though I couldn't accept this from my heart, I obeyed and made a confession of faith. I said "Thank you", and then again I said in a louder voice, "I am thankful for the boy who teased me." After 2 weeks, the itchiness went away, and one third of my left eyebrow grew back. Pastor Changmi Lee prayed for me with the handkerchief of power (Acts 19:11-12) as often as she could. As time passed, the right eyebrow began to grow back as well. In 3 weeks, so much hair grew back that my eyebrows were dark with hair! This experience gave me big faith, and now I am leading an earnest life of faith thanks to the love of God.
