Alice was an old Lady who lived alone that I used to visit regularly. She told me this story on the 6th April 1998. She really believed this to be true.
I Woke up
I woke up and looked at the clock. I was wide awake. The curtains on the side window are not closed at night and I could see out. The clock said that it was about three in the morning and as I said I felt wide awake but I couldn't move of my arms and it was as if my arms were paralyzed. As you know I have been ill recently and been in considerable pain but then this was different. I had not found my arms paralyzed before .
A figure in my room
There as clear as anything was a figure standing at the bottom of my bed. I knew it was Jesus. I'll not bother to describe him but he was as clear as that picture is on the wall in front of me. And then he spoke. As you know I am very deaf and being the middle of the night I was not wearing my hearing aid. But I heard him speak as clearly as anything and these are the words that he said to me "I will never leave you or forsake you." I really believe that it happened.
The after effects
I lay awake for the rest of the night and a course was in a state in the morning especially as my arms were paralyzed. The physiotherapist called the doctor and he sent two nurses who gave me an emergency enema. But from that time I started getting better and was soon able to come downstairs again and regained almost all of the previous use of my body. I have lost about two stone in weight through my recent illness but now have got my appetite back. My faith is now much stronger than it ever used today. I will never forget what happened that night even if some people do not believe that it really happened. That was the most important night of my life.
