The Story Behind Miracle Roses

 

I want to share another incredible miracle that I could have never expected. I was on a cocktail of medications for so many years, which included medication for nerve pain, depression, anxiety, sleep medication, appetite stimulants and blood thinners, including medical marijuana. The doctors told me I would have to stay on all these medications for the rest of my life. I survived two pulmonary embolisms, and I suspected it was caused by the medications.

 

Not only did it cause me two pulmonary embolisms, but it also caused me to have stomach issues, memory problems, weight gain, and severe insomnia. The side effects were becoming really hard to manage.

 

After visiting the Beloved Gallery for the first time at the inauguration in April of 2023 and viewing The Prince of Peace in person for the first time, I asked Him to help me free myself from all these medications. I also asked Him to free me from depression, anxiety, and nerve pain. He truly granted my wish. Soon after, I began weaning myself off all the medications. I decided to trust God to help me come off almost  everything.

 

So far, I have taken myself off 10 medications, including medical marijuana. I am 90%off of pharmaceutical medications. I am hoping one day I will be medication-free. I am no longer suffering from depression. I am no longer suffering from anxiety, and I’m no longer suffering from severe nerve pain, and I lost all the unwanted weight. All of my doctors are completely shocked. They cannot believe what I have accomplished. They couldn’t believe I came off everything by myself and how well I’m doing. Withdrawing was not easy, but I was able to do it with God’s help. I never thought this would ever be possible for me. God truly does the impossible when you start living your life in complete faith.

 

When I went to the Beloved Gallery for the first time for the inauguration on April 7, 2023, I was drawn to a beautiful bouquet of roses. Since white roses are one of my favorite flowers, I decided to photograph them. I took 5 pictures with my phone from 5 different angles. While I was photographing them, someone came up to me and told me that these flowers were sent to Akiane Kramarik. Months later, I’m looking through the photographs and I noticed that three of the photos have this glow, like they’re lit from within. I noticed it because when I tried to send it to my iPad or my computer, or even screenshot it, the glow would completely disappear. I had to work from the photo I took on my phone.

 

After a lot of praying, I decided to try to paint them in acrylics, which is a medium that I have very little experience with, since I specialize more in soft pastels. I wanted the roses to be in paint, not pastels. I painted these flowers while withdrawing from all the medications, and it took me nearly 450 hours to complete. I felt God's presence every time I would paint. A year later, after finishing the painting of the roses, I noticed that the original photo of the roses copied itself seven times on my phone. You can see all seven pictures of the roses glowing. I was so shocked when I noticed it because I only took one shot of that angle, not seven.

 

I decided to name them Miracle Roses. When I was painting these roses, I felt the healing while painting them and felt divinely guided to paint them. Now that I’m off of all these medications, I can do my artwork much easier and continue to discover my potential regardless of all the disabilities and limitations. Miracle Roses is the artwork that I am most proud of creating. It was an incredible healing experience. Words can't describe how incredibly grateful I am to God for His unconditional love, healing, and mercy.
