1 Peter 5:7 Casting all your care upon him; for he careth for you.
There were so many victories in my son Noah’s life, but I just want to tell you about 2 of them today.
When Noah was about 6 years old he still could not ride a two-wheel bike because of his disability so he had one with training wheels. Training wheels were meant for small children so he looked odd to other kids in the neighborhood and some made fun of him. His brother Joshua always defended his little brother though. Noah starting asking to have his training wheels removed and I explained to him that he had a disability and it was unsafe for him to ride a bike without the training wheels.
But Noah kept asking me over and over again for many weeks until one day I gave in. I told him his brother could take the training wheels off but he could only ride the bike in the back yard on the grass with the helmet of course. Well weeks went by and that boy was out there every day trying to ride that bike! I could see him out of my kitchen window riding and falling over and over again and sometimes he would lay on the ground for a minute gather himself up and he would get right back up on that bike. Of course I would be praying he didn’t hurt himself.
Then one day while I was in the kitchen I heard him scream really loud and I was scared out of my wits. I dropped what I was doing and ran to the back door just to see Noah riding that bike with a big kool aid smile on his face!!!I stood in that doorway with tears pouring down my face to see such a miracle. My eyes are welling up with tears right now as I get very emotional when I tell this story. Even after 19 years since this happen… I tremble at the power of God and what He has done for me and my son Noah. All praises belongs to God! Halleluiah!!!! Glory to His name!!!
The next story I want to share with you is about his moving up day. This was a graduation to Junior high school award ceremony. Even though Noah had gotten his braces off he still had somewhat of an off gait and you could tell by his walk that he had cerebral palsy, but he could still walk very good despite this thanks to so much early intervention and the healing power of God. No wheel chair, no braces and no assistance needed. When the music started and all the children marched in… my son was right there in that line and his father and I were so happy to see this miracle walk past us.
There were many awards of achievement for academic excellence in many subjects Noah received that day but when it came to the gym award we knew he wasn’t getting that one. The two awards for gym were given out and the gym teacher said he usually only gives out two awards but this year he said…I have a very special award for a special person. He said…this kid is my hero because I’ve never seen him give up.
[Side note – At field day every year Noah would always participate and do the race and all the kids would pass Noah and finish the race and the whole school would be chanting “Noah,Noah” until he got to the finish line no matter how long it took him.]
The gym teacher ( a man) was crying…the principal, teachers, my husband and I were all crying. I was crying so bad I couldn’t even operate my video camera and other parent around us were patting my husband and I on our backs to console us.
The teacher called my son up to get his award and the whole place just erupted in loud cheering and clapping. What and awesome day of seeing the power of Gods miracle in my son’s life!!!! Oh my Lord…God is so good!!! Oh taste and see that the Lord is good! His mercies never fail! Trust in the Lord all His people…trust in the Lord!!!
Today Noah has a good job and is living on His own. He is a blessing to everyone he comes in contact with and is so loving and kind. He loves the Lord and gives all the praise to the Lord for what He has done in His life.
If any of you reading this story today are going through any kind of situation in your life…I can tell you for a fact that God can and does answer prayer. I know this for 2 reasons….God promises that He will be there for us in His Holy Word the Bible and I know this because He has answered my prayers when I needed Him to heal my son as well as my other 5 other children who all had medical issues.
Oh Most Powerful and Awesome Father God,
I come before you today with so much love… and a thankful heart. Your care and concern for me blows me away! Your power to heal fills me with so much awe! Your abilities amaze me! I’m many times speechless when I see your supernatural intervention in action. I’m so glad you are my Father and I’m so grateful for your Son Jesus and for the awesome power of your Holy Spirit.
Lord…there are so many people who will read this blog and are going through things in their lives that need your help. Father…I ask you to please bless them. Those that need healing…Please heal. Those that need help with their children…please help….Those that need jobs….please provide employment and all the other needs to numerous to mention…but I know you know what they need.
Lord…I thank you for all the blessings and answered prayers that will come from people reading this story today and becoming so encouraged in their own faith in you…that they will receive from you the miracle in their life they need. I ask this in Jesus name….Amen.
1 Peter 5:7 Casting all your care upon him; for he careth for you.

First….I am sooooo sorry that your precious daughter is afflicted with CP. Some children have it better and some have very difficult effects from it. Every child has the right to live the best life they can despite their situation. We parents have to pray and get the best help for our child. Their bodies may not be the best but I tell you there spirit inside of them is 100% perfect. One day when they get to heaven they will get a new body. While they are here with us…we need to nurture them and do our best to make their lives happy in Jesus. Once you get through the shock and hurt from knowing your child is different…then you will go into super caretaker and advocate for your child.
When you give this over to God….He Will HELP YOU!!!! Not everyone will get the same miracle I got…only God knows…but I know God will help. Things like what happened to our children just happen. We don’t understand it all but as long as we know God will help us through it …is very important for us. Don’t hold on to the hurt…give it over to Him. Dig through you hurt…your tears…your pain…your questions…your disappointment and seek Him in your heart. You and your husband…support each other through this.
I will keep you in prayer. I wish your family all the best!! God bless you!

Dearest Camary and Noah,
What an Awesome God we serve! Thank you so much for sharing this wonderful story of God’s love and healing. We do not know why God allows such terrible diseases, but we do know that He can and does use them for our benefit and for His glory. What an assurance Noah has that God truly loves him and a testimony to others for His goodness. It is how we overcome the enemy.
Revelation 12: 10, 11: “Then I heard a loud voice in heaven, proclaiming, “Now have come the salvation and the power and the kingdom of our God and the authority of his Messiah, for the accuser of our comrades has been thrown down, who accused them day and night before our God. But they have conquered him by the blood of the Lamb and by the word of their testimony, for they did not cling to life even in the face of death.”
What God has done for us will stand forever!
Love and hugs,
Gramma Velta

How amazing, how wonderful, how Loving is our Awesome God, yes indeed Camary I believe in Miracles I have experienced them in my own life my illnessesm, some which were life threatening all are medically documented but the Doctors don’t know how they disappeared, 5 of them maybe one more still not sure about this one if it was something else . I’m still disabled from a generic defect since birth which is progressing, but I believe God knows how much we can cope with and He strengthens us for the rest and also uses natural means and Doctors to help and heal, they are all gifts from Him. I have also experienced signs and wonders that have been witnessed by others, yes I do indeed believe in Miracles. Has I was reading about Noah I could hardly contain myself, I wanted to shout out… Oh God How Great Thou Art… thank you Camary so much for sharing Noah’s Story and for your beautiful uplifting prayer.
Christian Love Anne
