My story, as told by me…

 

I want to thank my parents for being such a blessing to me and always loving me through the mess. They have been my support system and have encouraged me especially with the walking through of the trauma of the abuse I experienced. I also want to thank every single person God has placed in my life to walk through the process of healing. I am forever grateful for each and every one of you.

This video is a testimony of God’s goodness and faithfulness over my life. I can’t lie to you and say that this was not difficult to post because it was. To be honest, I did not want to do this video but I wholeheartedly felt the Lord tugging on my heart to do this.

I want forgiveness and God’s faithfulness to be the message here. There are many persons who can relate to my story. I want you to know that there is redemption, there is restoration, and that God is able to heal your deepest wounds and use it for His glory. Know that there is beauty in forgiveness, there is beauty in the journey of discovering the Father’s nature, character and heart. I know that Jesus has plans to use the things in your lives that are your best-kept secrets, the things that have made you a prisoner to fear, shame and guilt. Beloved, my prayer for you is that the Lord breathes on this testimony and gives you the courage and confidence to walk in the fullness of who He has called you to be… I pray that you choose to explore the depths of His heart and invite Him to do the same with you.
