Padma’s Miracle: A Testament of Unshakable Faith

 

My wife was working at the church reception one day when Sister Padma approached her with a heavy heart. Padma shared a harrowing experience she had just gone through. The previous night, she had fallen seriously ill, experiencing continuous bleeding that lasted until morning. Alarmed, she visited her doctor the next day to find out what was wrong.

After examining her, the doctor was stunned. He told her, “You cannot be alive.” A tumor in her womb had ruptured, causing the severe bleeding. The situation was critical, and the doctor immediately scheduled her for an urgent operation.

My wife, deeply concerned, prayed for Padma and encouraged her to proceed with the surgery as soon as possible. But Padma’s response left everyone speechless. With unwavering faith, she said, “If God could heal my son Pathum from being crippled, why wouldn’t He heal me too? I will wait on the Lord for my healing.”

Her faith was not just a fleeting hope; it was a firm conviction. She had seen God’s power at work in her son’s life, and she believed He would do the same for her.

A few days later, Padma returned to the doctor with updated medical reports. The results were nothing short of miraculous. The doctor, utterly astonished, confirmed that she was completely healed. There was no trace of the tumor, no explanation for her recovery—just the undeniable evidence of God’s hand at work.

A Faith That Marvels Jesus

This incredible story reminds me of the words of Jesus in Luke 7:9:
“When Jesus heard these things, He marveled at him, and turned around and said to the crowd that followed Him, ‘I say to you, I have not found such great faith, not even in Israel!’”

Jesus was speaking about the centurion whose faith amazed Him. The centurion believed that Jesus didn’t even need to be physically present to heal his servant—just a word from Him would be enough. Similarly, Padma’s faith was so strong that she refused to rely on human solutions alone. She trusted in God’s power to heal her, even when the situation seemed impossible.

Who Will Surprise Jesus Today?

Padma’s story challenges us to examine our own faith. How often do we face challenges and immediately turn to human solutions, forgetting the power of God? How often do we let fear and doubt overshadow our trust in Him?

Jesus is still looking for faith that moves mountains, faith that surprises Him. Who among us will rise up with such boldness and trust in His promises? Who will declare, like Padma, “I will wait on the Lord for my healing”?

The Power of Unshakable Faith

Padma’s miracle is a powerful reminder that:

1. God is Still in the Miracle Business: What seems impossible to us is possible with God (Matthew 19:26).
2. Faith Moves God’s Hand: When we trust Him completely, He responds in ways that leave us in awe.
3. Our Testimonies Inspire Others: Padma’s story didn’t just bless her—it strengthened the faith of everyone who heard it.
