“Hi. My name is Jennifer Crow. And I
wanted to share with you today about how I have received healing in my
body, in my spirit, in my soul. And much of it is due to Alex Loyd’s
Healing [Generator], which I’ve encountered. I want to tell you my story
and tell you what’s happened to me.
I’m 44 years old, I’m a mother of five children. My husband and I pastor
an 8,000 member church and I’ve always been a happy, wonderful, blessed
person. About four years ago I started having health problems. First it
was small things like chronic hoarseness, though that was large to me
because I’m a singer. And I began to not be able to sing and lead worship
at my church without having to warm up for thirty minutes. I went to
specialists. Throughout three or four years, one thing after another –
every time I went to a doctor or a new doctor, there was something else
wrong with me and I received a new diagnosis.
All in all, these are some of the diagnosis I’ve received (reads from a
list): Hashimoto’s thyroiditis, gallbladder full of gall stones, chronic
fatigue syndrome, Epstein-Barr virus, adenomyosis, fibroid tumors of the
uterus, laryngeal pharyngeal reflux disease, low iron, low B-12, vitamin
deficiencies in all aspects. I did take a questionnaire that also showed I
was depressed. I think anyone would be depressed if you had all these
physical problems!
What happened was these things just gradually began to snowball until
August of 2003 I came to a point in my life where I could not function and
I could not go on with life. My husband and my children – we were packing
for vacation – and I stood in front of the suitcase and I just began to
cry. I said, “I can’t do it. I can’t pack my suitcase.” And I know that
sounds silly, but that was how much I could not function.
So at that point I began a journey. For three years before that I’d tried
nutrition, I’d completely changed the way I ate. I cut out all sugar, I’d
taken multiple vitamin supplements and all the green powders and the
oils…I’d tried everything. I’d seen ten different doctors throughout that
three year period and I would seem to get better and the next time I went
to see the doctor I would receive a new diagnosis. So it got the point
where I had to take a three month sabbatical from my work at our church.
I’m one of our worship leaders and I do also preach. And I had to take
three months off.
Let me go back to the story when we were packing the suitcase. I told my
husband, “You and the kids go without me. I’m going to stay here for a
week and try to determine what to do.” I cried out to God and I said,
“Lord, there is somebody in this world…I know…;” I’d tried everything –
I’d read forty books by this time on health and nutrition and different
nutrition. I said, “There has to be somebody in this world who can help
me.” And I cried every day during that week. I went to see three different
doctors during that week.
It was just a few days later that my brother called me and told me to
listen to someone that was on a radio talk show. He said, “Jennifer,
they’re talking about your situation, it sounds like there’s somebody who
can help you.” And I ran to the radio and turned on the radio and it was
Dr. Alex Loyd and Dr. Ben Johnson. I only heard five minutes of the
program because it was almost over. I got on their website and I called
their phone number and I asked them, “Have you ever been able to help
anyone with chronic fatigue syndrome?” The person on the other end of the
line said, “It’s not easy, but we can help you.” I gave them my credit
card, paid my money, and I began to have personal coaching sessions with
one of their representatives.
What they did was they taught me some mediation, prayer exercises I could
do. They told me to do these three to five times a day for five minutes at
a time. At this point I’d tried everything, so I was willing to do
whatever. From the first moment I began to do one of the exercises they
gave me, I immediately at that first moment began to feel a peace come
into my life.
Through a process of several weeks, my symptoms did not improve, buy my
heart began to feel hope, began to feel love, began to feel peace, began
to feel joy. After about three weeks of just doing these simple exercises
three to five times a day, I got to a point where I felt so much joy in my
heart that I began to say to myself, “Even if I never get healed of my
physical problems, I could be happy this way for the rest of my life.”
Because the joy that I felt connecting with God through these exercises
was so much more than what I had experienced in the years prior.
The joy that I felt began to heal my heart and after about six weeks of
doing these prayer-meditation exercises, I lay down in bed one night after
doing one of the exercises. At that point in my life I could only sleep
for five hours a night. I would wake up in the middle of the night and
just have thoughts rolling and rolling around in my bed for hours and
hours and couldn’t sleep or go back to sleep. At that point I was also
taking two to three naps a day. All the people at church had volunteered
to bring food to our family because I could not perform any of the normal
household duties I needed to perform.
So at that point, after doing six weeks of The Healing [Generator]
exercises, I lay down at night. As I lay down, I felt a warm feeling,
starting at the top of my head, going all the way down through what felt
like my veins, going all the way through my arms, my fingers, down into my
body. When it was about waist high, I fell sound asleep. Just as I was
drifting off to sleep I said to myself, “Wow. This feels so good.” I fell
asleep. I woke up the next morning feeling better physically when I woke
up that I’d felt four months prior to that. I woke up and I thought, “Wow,
I’m getting better, I’m feeling better.” That night, I slept six hours
straight. The following night, I slept seven hours straight. And after
that point it just stabilized. After the third day, I began to realize
that I was completely free of the fatigue symptoms; the headache that
started at the back, the fatigue that had gone all the way down my neck
and shoulders. Completely free. I had been so fatigued that I could not
lift my hands. And I realized at that point that I was free of that.
That was October of 2003. I’m currently making this video in August of
2004. Since that time I have continued doing The Healing [Generator]
exercises at least twice a day every day and I try to do three if I can.
And since that point I have been completely healed of fibroid tumors of
the uterus, which were confirmed by ultrasound two years in a row. Prior
to that was confirmed adenomyosis.
Well, what happened to me was that when I felt this healing warmth flowing
through my body, I also began to bleed. And I began to bleed for thirty
days. I was concerned. I was thinking, “Wow, I’m feeling so much better.
I’m being healed, but yet I’m bleeding.” I went back to the doctor and the
ultrasound confirmed that my uterus was completely normal and totally free
of all fibroid tumors. I’d been on thyroid medication for low thyroid. I’m
currently not on any thyroid medication and my thyroid blood levels T3 and
T4 are completely within normal range. The chronic hoarseness is
completely gone and I have no more problem with that.
I’m still battling the gallbladder thing, though I supposedly have
gallstones for two years now and have never had my gallbladder removed. I
eat a normal diet and live a normal life. Ever so often it flares up, but
I feel like I have the tools now to attack that gallbladder problem and I
feel like I’m going to be completely healed.
What I didn’t realize that I realize now was that there was major stress
in my life. Not just the five kids, the 8,000 member church, the active
lifestyle, but what I realized was that there was fear that I was allowing
to infiltrate my heart and my mind every day of my life. Fears of not
being good enough. Fears of not measuring up. Fears that something bad was
going to happen to me. That my husband was going to die and that I was
going to have to pastor the church. These fears were constant companions
to me during this three year period where I had health problems.
I thought my problems were health related. Now I see my problems were
heart related. What has happened is through these Healing [Generator]
exercises is my heart has been healed through the power of God and my body
has begun to heal itself and is still healing itself.
I give glory to God and I thank God for bringing Alex Loyd into my life.
God bless you.”
