I’m Alex Thomas from Bangalore. I attended a 5-day retreat at El Ruha from December 29 to January 3. For the past 20 years, I've suffered from severe headaches. I can't skip or delay my meals because it leads to intense pain. I always rely on strong painkillers to get relief. As soon as I arrived at El Ruha, my headache started, and I took my usual painkiller. On Monday, Father spoke about the importance of confession, and I began preparing myself for it. On Tuesday morning, I woke up with a terrible headache that made it hard to sit or concentrate. Despite taking two painkillers, I felt no relief. I decided to go ahead with my confession and rest. The more I tried to prepare for confession, the worse the pain became. But when I knelt down to confess, the pain disappeared instantly. I couldn’t believe it! That same day, during adoration, Father called out that someone had confessed, and their headache was healed. The next day, I was able to fast without any issues. Thank you, Lord!
