Sister Yerim Kim, age 19, 12th grader, Manmin Central Church
When I went to elementary school, atopic dermatitis intermittently occurred to the rear part of my calves. But I was healed through Senior Pastor Dr. Jaerock Lee's prayer. But it reoccurred when I was a 9th grader, and it rapidly worsened.
As I got a smartphone, I listened to worldly popular songs, watched some videos that could be harmful to my spirit, and got into smartphone games. I had no interest in study or a believing life since I was in love with the worldly pleasure. Finally, I came to suffer from serious dermatitis on my hands and feet. I felt itchy on my hands, and it spread to my soles, so I walked lame. When I went to hospital, I was diagnosed with atopic dermatitis and they gave me medication.
I took the medicine and put on ointment, but it was of no use. Although Senior Pastor has always told us to love God foremost of all, I was full of attachment to the world. I could not even think about going to him. When I saw myself returning to the worldly things after I stopped for a while, I thought, 'Am I a human? Do I lack conscience?'
In late July 2018, when Manmin Summer Retreat was drawing near, I thought I could not live like that any longer. I went to Daniel Prayer Meeting and saw many church members pray earnestly. When I saw them, I came to think I wanted to be renewed. I deleted all games and more than 200 pop songs on my smartphone. Afterwards, as I prayed more, I felt more comfortable and joyful as if a new heart were beating in me.
I also decided to join in the tug-of-war match as a member of the first Great Grand Parish during the summer retreat. To cast away changing mind, I went to the practice every day. In the meantime, the atopic dermatitis that affected my hands and feet improved quickly. Any medicine had not worked before, but it noticeably improved while I was being renewed. I was healed of it even before the retreat.
In the past, I had to wear socks even in summer, but now I don't have to. I tried to have my hands not seen by anybody due to the affected parts, but now I don't any longer. Hallelujah!
In early August, I participated in Manmin Summer Retreat and experienced amazing power of God. I shed many tears feeling the love of God, the Lord, and the shepherd. I was blessed so much. These days, I feel so refreshed and want to renew myself and serve my parents more. I give all thanks and glory to the living God who is good.
