Hours later, I was still not feeling any better. I stopped "praying", which at that point was really just me doing a lot of talking to myself, and I became still. "What should I do?", I asked. I sat still and silent for a few moments and just listened. Then a thought came to me: "Maybe you can't change how your body feels, but nothing can stop you from rejoicing and loving God".
So, I put on some music, some songs that praised God. I sat on the floor and sang along. At first I was just singing softly, but gradually, I raised my voice to it's loudest volume and just belted out the words. I felt my heart lift in inspiration...something in me started to glow... a warm surge of joy came over me... and then suddenly, without any warning, I sneezed so hard that I fell over backwards!
I sat upright again and thought, "Wow, where did that come from?" Then I realized that the headache was gone. I felt perfect... and the headache never returned!
"It is a good thing to give thanks unto the Lord, and to sing praises unto thy name, O most High:" Psalms 92
