| A divine healer in a Kerala church called out, "Anyone with special needs who wants to be prayed for, come forward to the front." Hearing that, Kunjappan, got in line and when it was his turn the Pastor asked, "Kunjappan, what do you want me to pray for you?" Kunjappan replied, "Pastor, I need you to pray for help with my hearing." The Pastor put one finger of one hand on Kunjappan's ear, placed his other hand on top of Kunjappan's head, and then prayed and prayed and the whole congregation joined in with much enthusiasm. After a few minutes, the Pastor removed his hands, stood back and asked, "Kunjappan, how is your hearing now?" Kunjappan answered, "I don't know. My hearing is actually next Thursday at the Ernakulam High Court!!!" |
