The Spirit of the Lord rested upon me as I attempted to speak. Like a shock of electricity I felt it upon my heart, and all pain was instantly removed. I had suffered great pain in the nerves centering in the brain; this also was entirely removed. My irritated throat and sore lungs were relieved. My left arm and hand had become nearly useless in consequence of pain in my heart; but natural feeling was now restored. My mind was clear; my soul was full of the light and love of God. Angels of God seemed to be on every side, like a wall of fire. {LS 227.1}

Herrens ånd hvilede over mig idet jeg prøvede at tale. Det var ligesom et elektricitetsstød i mit hjerte, og al smerte var straks væk. Jeg havde lidt af stor smerte omkring hjernen; dette var også helt væk. Min irriterede strube og ømme lunger var lindret. Min venstre arm og hånd var blevet næsten ubrugelig på grund af mine hjertelidelse; men nu var den naturlige følelse genoprettet. Mit sind var klart; min sjæl var fuld af Guds lys og kærlighed. Det var som om at Guds engle var på begge sider, ligesom en ildmur.
