Before ill health and several medical conditions marred life and happiness for Teresa Gorys from Canada, she was a thriving businesswoman, a dutiful wife, and an amazing mother.
In 2007, she saw the first sign of trouble. Symptoms like headaches and breathing difficulties prompted a visit to the doctor who diagnosed her with hypertension. “A manageable diagnosis,” she thought, hence she adjusted her schedule, followed the prescriptions, and kept going.
But three years later, a car accident left Teresa incapacitated. The injuries sustained affected her legs and she was assigned a walker to aid her mobility. Despite intensive therapies and treatments for over a decade, the recurrent pain in her lower back and left leg persisted.
By 2021, Teresa’s health nosedived as weight loss, blurry vision, nausea, and stomach aches made life increasingly difficult. A thorough medical investigation revealed a series of crushing diagnoses: diabetes, severe arthritis, and liver cirrhosis. Each condition compounded the other, leaving her fatigued and in a relentless cycle of pain.
Subjected to daily insulin injections for diabetes, constant pain from arthritis, and incessant fatigue from liver disease, the lifestyle changes and restrictions Teresa had endured since 2007 multiplied.
Her business stopped, and she became reliant on her family for daily necessities and even the simplest tasks. Her calendar, once filled with deals and designs, now overflowed with medical appointments.
“Being so sick affected me tremendously,” Teresa laments. “I couldn’t do anything for myself. I couldn’t walk up the stairs or attend to my everyday needs. I was dependent on my family for everything, even using the washroom. I had to get a walker to move around. I couldn’t sleep.”
“It was such a dark stage in my life. It affected me mentally, and I needed therapy to adapt to my condition. I was once a very strong woman. I was fit for anything. But at this time, I was unable to even stand. My family helped and supported me in the best ways but it was hard on them,” she recalls.
Toward the end of 2022, Teresa’s specialist informed her that she needed a liver transplant and stated the possibility that she may not survive long enough to find a donor. The weight of it all became too overwhelming. Teresa yearned for the days when her life was simple and pain-free.
The fulfillment of Teresa’s deepest desire came in February 2023 when someone introduced her to the Healing Streams. The news was a breath of fresh air, and she registered for the online Healing School classes to prepare for the program.
On the day of the healing service, Teresa was set for an unforgettable encounter with God’s divine power. She had spent time in prayer and meditation, readying herself for her moment of transformation.
She says, “The testimonies I heard ignited strong faith in me for my healing. The teachings helped me even further. I was convinced of my miracle, so I repeatedly said to myself, ‘I will be healed. I will walk again and I won’t need a walker anymore.’
“I participated in the Healing Streams and I knew it was the day for my healing. Pastor Chris called out to me, saying, ‘Teresa from Canada, from the crown of your head to the tips of your toes, you are healed.’
“As he ministered, a heat sensation ran through my body so strongly, and I knew I had received my miracle. I got up, needing no walker or assistance, and I walked up the stairs!” Teresa gushes.
Joy flooded Teresa’s heart! She had been healed by the power of God and would never be the same again. The pain and limitations that had plagued her for 16 years were gone in an instant. Her prayers and faith culminated in a refreshing renewal of her spirit, soul, and body. She was a brand-new person, poised to live in absolute peace, joy, and divine health.
Months later, she returned to the hospital for a checkup. After all tests and examinations were concluded, her bewildered specialist announced, “Your liver is normal – no more cirrhosis.”
It has been over a year since God changed Teresa’s life at the Live Healing Services, and she testifies: “Since my healing, I’ve not used the walker again and I’ve stopped all medications. I am stronger and able to walk up the stairs, run, and drive myself. I’ve returned to my business. I’ve got a new life, a new beginning, and I’m so glad and thankful.”
Teresa is now actively involved in her local church, and she eagerly shares the good news of God’s saving power. “I go around winning souls and bringing them to church with my testimony. God is using me for ministry and it has been amazing!” she says.
For anyone who attends the Healing Streams in search of a miracle, she encourages, “Always believe! Never give up! Listen to Pastor Chris. He will do the praying, you will do the believing, and God will do the healing.”
Filled with gratitude, Teresa concludes her story: “Pastor Chris, you have touched my life. I am grateful for the gift of you. Thank God for the opportunity to be healed. I am also grateful to the Healing School and its partners.”
