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. ...
Our only child collided with a large SUV but she walked out of the accident scene unscathed.

"Screeeeeech~ Bang!" "Ju-eun, noooooooo!"
On our way to a market on Wednesday, January 11, 2006, my family was involved in a car accident. Our five-year-old daughter Ju-eun had let go of her father's hand, run ahead of us and onto the road, and was struck by a speeding SUV on the crosswalk. For a moment I couldn't see anything but I soon composed myself. My husband and I began looking for Ju-eun, who miraculously walked out from underneath the car. All she did was to drop onto the ground and began crying.
"Are you okay, Ju-eun? Are you hurt?"
We looked here and there for any scrapes or wounds but except for her clothes having been dirtied, Ju-eun was completely fine. One of her pink sneakers that had apparently come off her foot and flown behind the SUV was the only witness to the incredible event that had just taken place.
Ju-eun walked out from underneath the car and began crying
At the urging of the dumbfounded driver of the SUV and the speechless bystanders, we took Ju-eun to a nearby hospital for MRI and CT scans but the doctor couldn't find anything wrong with her. After reviewing the scan results, he thought the accident had been a minor collision. When he heard of what had really happened, the doctor couldn't believe what he was seeing and could only say, "The gods must've been with this little girl." I guess he wanted to express that some force beyond the might of man had been watching over our daughter. He also advised that Ju-eun might wake up in the middle of the night with convulsions. So I put Ju-eun to sleep after having her receive Senior Pastor Rev. Dr. Jaerock Lee's "Prayer for the Sick" recorded on the automated telephone message. Ju-eun was fast asleep as if nothing had happened to her earlier that day.
"God has saved the daughter He has given us!"
For my family was well aware of the birth of Ju-eun, we could only magnify God and rejoice in Him.
Ju-eun born five years into the marriage after receiving the prayer of blessing
I married my husband in 1997 but as I was suffering from the sequela of intestinal tuberculosis at the time, I was unable to conceive. After receiving Senior Pastor Rev. Dr. Jaerock Lee's prayer by faith on the television screen, however, I gave birth to Ju-eun in May 2002, five years after our wedding. Through Ju-eun's accident, I repented of having failed to live by the Word, become lax in my prayer life, and grumbled against and not having served my husband (Deacon Tae-wan Kim) faithfully on account of my having been ill. The accident served as a precious opportunity by which we became a peaceful family. I give all thanks and glory to God for giving us such a beautiful daughter and protecting her every moment, and also give my heartfelt thanks to Senior Pastor Rev. Dr. Jaerock Lee for harboring our family in his prayer.
