A Lady Cured, Who Had Been Rejected from an Asylum

“Madam M, the mother of twelve children, had been

quite shattered in mind by the death of her husband, and had been actually sent away uncured from an asylum. She came to Dorothea’s home, was blessed in remembrance in her prayers, and ajter seven weeks went away perfectly cured. She acknowledged the Lord was indeed her helper, and she has remained well to this day.”

The Soul Cured as well as the Body.

On many occasions she experienced wonderful help from God, who, while performing marvels for the body, which is the least important part, accomplishes what is far greater, even the salvation of souls.

“Among others, one named B. T, went to her, who had

been su:ffering for six months from a disease of his bones, and had been for a lengthened period in a Swiss hospital, under medical treatment. At length he. by the advice of Christian friends, sought for relief from his malady at Dorothea’s house. His cure began in the first week of his visit, and in a few weeks he was completely recovered.”

On one occasion a young artisan came, in whom cancer had made such progress as to render any approach to him almost unbearable.

“At the Bible lessons, this once frivolous man, now an earnest inquirer, learned where the improvement must begin; and from the day that he confessed his sins against God and man, the disease abated Some time afterwards he acknowledged one sin he had hitherto concealed, and then he speedily recovered his bodily health, and returned to his home cured in spirit also.”

“A lady in S had so injured her knee by a fall, that

for weeks she lay in the greatest agony. The doctors declared that dropsy would supervene; but the Heavenly Physician fulfilled those promises which will abide until the end of the world; and by prayer, and the laying on of Dorothea’s hand, the knee was cured in twenty-four hours, and the swelling vanished.’’
