We were told by my daughter’s head coach that my daughter would never be able to compete in a swimming competition at the national level because she was too weak. This was a major setback to her as she devoted much of her time to swimming after school.

We have been listening to Pastor Prince’s messages for a number of years. When we heard his message on God’s restoration, we chose to believe that our daughter is a champion and victor in Christ because He had purchased her victory at the cross.

We prayed and fed on the Word and God opened new doors for our daughter. She met new coaches who gave her a second chance and she managed to compete in her first-ever national-level meet and scored seventy-nine marks.

Today she is happy and has gone back to being the confident and sociable child that she is. It is a pleasure to see her feed on the Word and grow in faith at just eleven years of age. She is even encouraging her friends when they feel defeated.

Our daughter is a light and we believe that she reflects the glory of God around her. We are very thankful toward our Father for the gospel of grace and for all the pastors He gives to His church to preach the gospel of grace. The gospel truly lifts us up when we fall down.
