Sister Hyunjoo Baek
(3rd grade of a middle school, Daejeon Manmin Church )

When I was in the 4th grade of elementary school, I took an eye test at school. It turned out that I could hardly see with my left eye. I was startled and visited the hospital with my parents. After an examination, the doctor diagnosed me with disuse amblyopia. He felt so sorry, because if this had been discovered in its early stages, I could have been cured through eye-training programs, special eye lotion, or wearing glasses. But it was too late now. Disuse amblyopia arises as a result of long periods of eye inactivity from wearing eye bandages or patches, blindness of the eyes during the toddler or infant years, or eye diseases which include cataracts and ptosis (drooping eyelid).

The doctor said that my eyesight would be no better than 0.2 even after surgery. My parents decided to pass up the surgery and instead had me wear special glasses. But even after three years, my sight didn't get any better. Even the vision in my right eye, which was relatively better, fell to 0.6. Not only did I have trouble concentrating on my studies, but I suffered from a lot of stress from only being able to see things with one eye. People sometimes misunderstood and thought I was constantly frowning. I couldn't pay attention during class. So I tried to overcome my sad situation by relieving stress through watching dramas, shopping online, and buying nice clothes. It was fortunate that I had an optimistic personality; otherwise I probably would have fallen into depression.

After receiving prayer from Pastor Heesun Lee with the handkerchief on which Dr. Jaerock Lee prayed, the vision of both eyes became 1.2.

My family members, who led their spiritual lives at Daejeon Manmin Church, took care of me with great love, and especially my mother did it. They attended worship service together in spirit and in truth and helped me return to God. I began to receive grace through the sermons and began to change. I could study well and came to hope for heaven more.

On the 28th of October of this year, Pastor Heesun Lee came to Daejeon Manmin Church and held the Fullness of Holy Spirit Prayer Meeting, for which I prepared with a longing heart and repented for chasing after worldly pleasures and hanging out with friends. Finally, my turn came, and Pastor Heesun Lee prayed for me with the handkerchief (Acts 19:11-12). At that moment, I felt the wounds of my heart being healed through tears. And I felt that ill feelings that I had, like loneliness, stress, and anger disappeared.

After the prayer, I covered my right eye and opened my left eye. At that moment, I could clearly see the letters on the event banner. I was overwhelmed with joy, so I dropped down on the very spot I was standing and cried. All the things that burdened my heart went away in a single moment.

Last November 7, I visited an ophthalmological hospital which I used to go to five years ago when I was the 4th grade. At the eye examination, the sight of both of my eyes were 1.2. The doctor said, "It is medically impossible to recover eyesight. This is a miracle." On the 13th, I was so happy that I went to Seoul to give my testimony to the Senior Pastor. After hearing the testimony, Senior Pastor prayed for me. And an amazing thing happened again. The headaches from amblyopia were also healed. Hallelujah!
