No Longer Depressed Or Suicidal

A year ago, I was going through a dark time. At that time, my husband was a pastor and I was facing rejection from the church leadership as they were not ready to embrace the changes they’d brought us onboard to bring about. This led to a depression so great, I was suicidal during the Christmas season.

I used to battle with rejection and had sought treatment since becoming a Christian in 1998. I felt such shame for not finding the freedom from rejection that I helped others find. Also, I felt condemned because I struggled with terrible thoughts of taking my own life and thoughts that God could never use me again. I thought that He was finished with me, so life was no longer worth living. I was desperate for freedom!

Then, I started listening to Joseph Prince online, after reading his devotionals on YouVersion’s Bible app. Through the teachings of Joseph Prince, God brought me out of the pit and set my feet on solid grace ground. I now know without a shadow of doubt that I am God’s beloved!

I have been able to forgive myself  and now each day, as I focus on Jesus’ finished work, I see how much He loves me! Now, I no longer obsess on mistakes but rather, I thank God for His love and declare my righteousness in Christ.

God’s blessings on my marriage has taken it to a whole new level and although my husband is no longer in a full-time ministry, he ministers daily in our home and at his new job, which provides three times more than what he was being paid previously. My four children now know the truth and we are raising them under grace and not the law.

Thanks to the grace and truth revealed in your teachings, we are fully equipped to preach the gospel to whomever God puts in our path.

Most of all, I now focus on God’s love for me and I find that instead of me desperately trying to find someone to minister to, they are now looking for me. I know it is God’s grace in and through me that has transformed a broken, bitter heart into a whole one.

Thank you, Joseph Prince, for your obedience to the Holy Spirit. You literally saved my life!
