Miracle Cure?

It has been some time that I have posted anything here, but I am proud to say that I've been keeping up with my prayer life. An alarm set on my mobile phoone will remind me of the Divine hour , 3 pm everyday , and if possible , I will say a short prayer, typically thanking God for his Infinite and Divine Mercy , as well as to remember people who asked me to pray for them .
 
One thing that I asked in my prayers, I would say has been granted , through his Divine Mercy .I sprained my thumb a week ago , no idea how. Doctor's weren't sure on it, and I was ready to see a hand specialist. My GP prescribed an anti inflamatory drug, which I was suppose to take twice a day. It was also an analgelsic i.e. a pain killer. However the pain continue to escalate , and using my thumb was painful to the point, that I couldn't even write properly. I decided that I will also ask God for his help.
 
In about a day after that, while driving down to Singapore, the pain started reducing. Although I was on medication for about 1 day, it was not working at all, and in fact it was getting more painful. I had forgotten to take my 2nd dose for the day , before I started my journey to Singapore. However as I drove down the highway, I noticed that my pain was getting less and less. By the time I reached Singapore, the pain was negligible and I had full use of my hand again.
 
I cannot attribute the recovery to the medication, and I doubt it healed itself, as the pain was very intense, hence a conclusion that it was through divine intervention. A small miracle, but nevertheless a miracle, which I shall attribute to Him.
 
As my circle of friends in church grows, I have been getting prayer request. For the sake of their privacy , I shall refrain from using their names. Some of them are
 
1. A friend who was going to have surgery this week, and next month.
2. A friend who is looking for a good job.
3. Choice Weekends in KL, Kuching and Penang.
 
I too have my personal prayer request, and that is for Unity, Understanding and reconciliation in my family. A family feud has driven 3 of my sisters to the point where they are not able to speak to one another. A sad event, for my family, especially when my father raised us to put family first. Please pray for reconciliation in my family. The breaking down of barriers of anger, hate, resentment, pride and self pity.
