The Mercy of God in a Difficult Hour

The Story of Mariam Chokheli · Georgia

During an examination, two cystic formations were discovered in my breast.

The doctor recommended surgery.

During this difficult period, I began praying to the Lord every day and asking Saint Gabriel Urgebadze for his prayerful intercession.

I reverently used oil blessed at his resting place.

A later examination showed that both formations had disappeared.

With all my heart, I thank the Lord for His mercy and Saint Gabriel for his prayers.

“May the Lord be glorified for ever!”

Glory to God for all things!

From the testimony of Mariam Chokheli.
