God’s timely intervention

One day, I faced a sudden dental problem that caused me a lot of pain and worry. One of my dental crowns chipped off, leaving a gap in my tooth. The discomfort was sharp and persistent, making it hard to focus on anything else. When I visited my dentist, I was told I might need a new crown, which could cost $1,500 or more. That was a heavy financial burden to consider.

Seeking affordable care

Knowing the cost was high, I asked my dentist for a referral to a restructured hospital where I could receive subsidised care. I was prepared to wait, as I had heard that appointments at such hospitals often take several months. The thought of enduring the pain for that long was discouraging. I felt stuck between the need for urgent care and the reality of long waiting times.

A prayer answered quickly

I decided to pray, asking God to help me avoid the long wait and the ongoing pain. To my surprise and relief, I was given an appointment to see the specialist just two days after the referral! I couldn't be any more grateful! Truly, God is good.
