God is still in the business- Zoe's healing

Matthew 16:18-19 On this rock I will build my church and the gates of hell will not prevail against it! I will give you the keys to the kingdom of heaven and whatever you bind on earth will be bound in heaven, and whatever you loose on earth will be loosed in heaven!!
I thought it would be beneficial for me to put this online, and let the world know what happened last night. I pray for forgiveness for doubting what happened, and waiting until now to post this, but I am only human. It started a little while ago, Zoe was complaining that she was hurting, as we soon figured out, she had some sort of bladder infection, or something like it. We were wanting to take her to the doctor, but because of the money, or lack thereof, we decided to wait until we got home where she could go to TISA and therefor be way more affordable. Well, she kept complaining about it, and then last night it came to a head. She was awake most of the night complaining about it. We decided that we would take her in on Monday, irregardless of what it cost, and we would figure out how to pay for it later. It went from a nuisance, to bad in literally a day's time. I was sitting up with her and just rubbing her back in the middle of the night last night, and began to pray. I told God that He needed to take care of them, because there is nothing that I can do! I don't remember everything other than I was really sincere! I began to pray for healing for Zoe as she sat there and whimpered. This is quite possibly the worlds worst feeling, knowing that there is nothing that you can do for your child!! I poured out my heart to God, and kept asking Him to just touch her. Then I began praying for His peace, and comfort to fall on her. I noticed that as I was praying she first began to cry, then within 5 minutes she fell fast asleep. I prayed a while longer then stumbled back to my bed and fell asleep. Zoe slept in this morning and I just waited to see how she felt. She got up all chipper and I asked her if she was still hurting and she laughed at me and said no. I was shocked, this was the first time she had said no since all this started!! Then as the day went on I asked her a bunch of times about it, and she just kept telling me that she was fine!! No pain!!! Thank God, He healed her when there was literally nothing that we could do for her!! We serve a big God, that cares enough to comfort us no matter what we are going through. That is the reason that we are doing what we are doing, waiting for His return, with eternity on our mind!!! We do not serve a god made of feathers, or a rock that just sits there, or a god that might strike us down with fire at any moment, we serve a loving, kind God that is always there for us no matter what!!! AMEN
