Healing Through Hope

Dee Dee Graham began having epileptic seizures when she was five years old, and from that moment, her life was different from those around her. Tests, specialists, and medications became the order of the day for her, and as she grew, she watched her friends enjoy the life that she couldn’t have, such as driving licenses and full days of school uninterrupted by seizures, and jobs where you wouldn’t be fired for having another seizure. Doctors tried it all, including telling her it was all in her mind, but as she cried out to the Great Physician, His news was the best of all:

Then the Lord said to me, ‘Write my answer plainly on tablets, so that a runner can carry the correct message to others. This vision is for a future time. It describes the end, and it will be fulfilled. If it seems slow in coming, wait patiently, for it will surely take place. It will not be delayed.’

That passage from the Bible in Habakkuk chapter two became Dee Dee’s foundation on which to stand. In her story, you will find what she found–that through God’s faithfulness to His own promises, He alone can bring us healing through hope.
