One testimony that particularly stands out highlights the transformative power of our efforts. It serves as a powerful reminder of why we do what we do and the incredible impact we can have on individuals facing their darkest moments.
“Hi Anna, Just want to say that I was encouraged and strengthened by yesterday’s final session. I came with an extremely heavy heart because of some conversations that I overheard about me, and I was haunted by my past. I was feeling worthless, and the idea that went into my head was that I’ll never be a good wife to anyone, let alone ever marry. But the last session really spoke to me personally, and at the altar, there was such an intimate moment with God where He dealt with exactly what I had been going through and healed my heart. I am able to leave at the [foot] of the cross something I’ve been carrying for 3 years. All along, no matter what, I’ve found it hard to let go. Three years ago, I was raped by a friend. For the longest time, I was in denial and in shame, though I’ve dealt with it at altar calls many times. But yesterday, God spoke to me directly about how my past does not define me, which my family was doing yesterday… Thank you, Anna, for yesterday. Praise God.”
This heartfelt testimony is a testament to the healing and restoration that can happen when we create spaces for people to encounter God’s love and grace. It is stories like these that fuel our passion and drive to continue our mission.
Through the Joshua Nations x Worldshapers partnership, we have not only equipped churches and graduated leaders but also facilitated moments of deep personal healing and transformation. As we move forward, let us be encouraged by these successes and remain steadfast in our commitment to bring hope, healing, and the message of salvation to all those we encounter.
