"Yes, today is Share Your Experience day. I believe God would touch the hearts of people as we share our experience" biodunrin said
"Amen" her friends replied
Getting to the church, Mama T the vice president was leading the opening prayer. After the prayers, she asked those who want to share their experience to come out. (Biodunrin and her friends come out). “I want you all to listen and learn from their experience" She said and handed the microphone to them
“Today, I am going to tell a horrific events of my life. I was a young adult of 18 years when I was abused by my father. I have been through so much that I became so vulnerable for anything. I left home to live with a man 3 times my age, my dad brother. I was with him for what seemed like forever but it was only for 2 months. I ran away because I was tired of being raped everyday and night. I was physically and sexually abused my whole life but I made a decision, I told myself I need help and I am now in a shelter, getting my life back to normal. God is good " Deborah said.
“I was going through a lot since 17 years but now, I am 25 years old. I have had a lot of negative people and judgemental people in my life, friends do come and go. It looks as if I was alone in this life, fighting my battles. I have changed my environment several times but nothing is changing and sometimes, I guessed I was destined to be like that but now, here I am learning to always be positive, having faith in God and letting go of negative and judgemental people. I am surrended with people who love and want the best for me . I am a product of God's love and miracle ” Imole said.
“A happy home, turned a shattered home since the day my dad died. Families and friends said they would always be there for us but what a pity, their help lasted for a week and they turned their backs toward us. Few week later, families came to claim my dad's properties, leaving us with nothing. No where to go or run to. I was bittered, pained, depressed and sad. It was hard fighting alone until I knew someone who loves and cares about me. God loves me. Don't fight whatever you are going through alone. It is always hard and miserable. You cannot win" Esther said. She gave Mama T the microphone.
As she raised her face up, she saw the tears, sad faces and she knew a lot of people are going through things they can't say. She prayed to God to grant her words as she said “ Friends might come and go. You might lose the ones you love. People might leave you to fight alone and you put on a fake smile to hide all pain. Struggles might meet you in the face to watch you slip up yet through it all, you would not change a thing. Through it all, you wouldn't trade your life for freedom or fame because someone who watches over you and also loves you is waiting for you. His name is Jesus ”.
Through it all. In whatever you are facing or still going to face this year, I want you to know that God still loves you and He wants the best for you. Nothing can separate Him from loving you so as, nothing should separate you from loving Him this year.
You need to accept Him into your life, into that challenges. You need His help, you can't fight it alone. Last year, you have been doing it yourself but year, run to Him. He is waiting for you.
God bless you!
