We've all heard the saying "God works in mysterious ways", but personally I didn't understand what it meant until I experienced it firsthand. Let me tell you the story (I promise it's not very long)...
I spent a lot of time praying for someone and it didn't seem like it made much of a difference. In fact I almost gave up hope, because the more I prayed, the worse off this person seemed to become. I felt like I had to be the one to step in and save this individual, but then God told me, "Just hold onto Me, and I will take care of them." I didn't really get what God was saying, but I figured it meant that I just needed to focus on my own life and my relationship with God and to place the other person in His hands. I did this in the best way I knew how and it didn't work right away, but I never gave up. I kept praying no matter what and.... IT WORKED!!! This person's life is completely turning around and now they are turning their lives over to God! I'm so happy!!! I was so worried for so long and now I know for sure that everything is going to be okay. You know, I NEVER used to be a very spirtual person until I hit absolute rock bottom and I realized I needed some sort of supernatural help. I cried out to God and he saved me, and now I see him saving people all around me too. Without Him, there is no hope - I am sure of it. Thank you God for answering my prayers and taking care of my loved ones. I pray for all the people who are still hurting or feeling hopeless. I know that if you helped me, you can help them too. Can I get an AMEN?
