No More Rash!

   Years ago, probably during my second pregnancy, I was in for a doctor's appointment. As he was examining me, he was startled and made some kind of remark about a rash that covered most of my body. I looked like a giraffe! That did it. I asked God to heal me of my rash.
   My rash problems began when I was around 13 or 14. My girlfriend and I spent a lot of time in different lakes around town. Her dad used to drive us to them and we would swim in some of them. That is where I believe the rash originally came from.
  Over the next couple of years, the rash continued to be on my skin. Most of it was hidden under my clothing though, but some of it you could see on my arms.
  After I got married, the rash was still there. It would be more obvious whenever I was sweating. I went to the doctor, and he gave me a prescription ointment that worked. I was happy, but the tube was very small, and didn't go very far. It was also expensive, so I could not continue using it, as effective as it was.
  Of course, the rash came back in full force, and it was very noticeable when I was pregnant with my second child. Even the doctor noticed it, although he didn't know what kind of rash it was, plus, even if he did, I would not have been able to use any medications on it until I was through with the pregnancy. So, I prayed for God to take the rash away.
   Actually, I forgot about my prayer and even the rash, but months later I did remember and noticed that the rash was no longer there. That was back in the mid 80s, and the rash has never been back on my body since that time. Thank God for answering that prayer and healing my body from whatever that rash was!
