One day in January 2024, I woke up in the morning and felt pain in my neck. I could feel a small lump. As time passed, the lump grew bigger and bigger to turn into a bump, and the affected area became swollen. It was easily visible, so I turned up my collar or covered it with a scarf. ...
"Despite the water having broken I delivered a healthy boy by powerful prayer"
I was pregnant and I felt some fluid running down from my body on the evening of April 2 in 2014. Surprised, I went to hospital the next morning. The doctor told me that it was preterm premature rupture of membranes. He said the water had broken and there was nothing he could do—"Talk to your husband."
Amniotic fluid is the protective thick liquid contained by the amniotic sac of a pregnant female. It is essential that fluid be breathed into the lungs in order for a fetus to develop normally. But my fluid leaked at only the 19th week of gestation and it seemed impossible for me to keep the fetus in my womb. Nothing, however, worried me because I had received Senior Pastor Dr. Jaerock Lee's prayer at the 10th week. I just deliberated on what caused it and believed God's works would be fulfilled. I talked about it to Pastor Heejin Lee, Performing Arts Committee's Chairperson. She advised me, my husband, and both families to check if we had given whole tithes and kept the whole Sabbath.
My parent-in-laws bought us a house when we got married. I thought I would give a tithe for it later, not having enough money then. It had slipped my mind for the last three years but now came back. I repented and gave the tithe and a peace offering to God. It was just the right time; we had quite a bit of money we had saved for moving. I repented of having been stingy about thanks offerings. Our family members also repented examining their tithes and Sabbath days.
I talked to Dr. Lee who was back from mountain prayer at the 21st week. He prayed for the water filling again and my baby growing up well with no abnormality. I also received his prayer at the 22nd and the 23rd weeks. Then the waters filled the sac little by little and reached the minimum level around my baby's lips. I stayed in the observation unit in hospital from the 23rd to 29th week. My doctor had theretofore suggested inducing labor, saying my hindwater was too low and my fetus was in danger. But after the prayer my baby grew up well and moved actively. The doctors said that it was considered curious and amazing.
Deaconess Hyunjung Lee, who had delivered a healthy baby through the prayer after water leakage at the 19th week, came by with her daughter and encouraged me saying, "You are sure to deliver a healthy baby like I did. I wish you will overcome it with faith and joy."
On July 9, at the 33rd week, I delivered a healthy boy with no difficulty. We named him Seongeum which is a Korean abbreviation of 'the heart of the Holy Spirit'. My son and I are very good with no problem at all.
I was renewed feeling God's love during the around 100 days from water leakage to safe delivery. I worship and pray with a new heart. I feel more of God's love on the course of my believing life. I give all thanks and glory to God who caused all things to work together for good.
