Experience Description But clearly, this experience changed my life completely. I always, as a child, drew Jesus all the time while I was in Sunday school. And now the reason I believe He visited me at that time. I was born with congenital hepatitis from my mother (biological) and the doctors had only given me one year to live due to the disease (at the time there was No cure in my country against this disease) and God housed it in a part of my liver leaving it numb in my body. (My parents gave me all kinds of vaccines to try to stop the disease from progressing, but as I said above, it was not a cure, just a treatment). After a few years, when I was 16 years old, I went to an upper room (a large meeting that was held annually for healings to be performed for people who believed) that day I felt in the region of my liver that something had been burned inside of me. I was certain that it was Hepatitis that had been eradicated from my body and finally cleansed of all the congenital diseases I had within me. Because God had Purified my soul and spirit and just lodged hepatitis in a part of my liver and left it dormant. Because if He had eliminated the disease along with something that I will explain in the next paragraph in detail, I would attribute this cure to the vaccines taken during my childhood. When I turned 26 it was revealed to me that I was an adopted child of my parents. My biological mother was a street prostitute who was conceived by a man who had committed adultery against his wife. In other words, I had been conceived with a terrible and deadly curse, the curse of the bastard child conceived in adultery and acquired a curse on my soul and body. I got my biological mother's hepatitis and my parent's adultery in my soul. For as long as I can remember before I was visited by Jesus, I was tormented by demons in my dreams due to this misfortune within me. That's why Jesus came to me. Because my "real parents" chose to adopt me, God decided to alter my fate (to die at just one year of age from hepatitis) by cleansing my soul of this curse and inactivating the disease in my liver for when I would be able to understand the miracle that He did in me and so, He destroyed hepatitis in me. I owe my existence totally to God and my adoptive parents' choice to adopt me. I know that I have other brothers and half-siblings due to my biological mother's "profession" and I have faith that their fates were also like mine and they are fine. For this reason, I am sure of the Existence of God and that His love is immeasurable for his children. May Peace be with you all!
