A man who sank deep into major depression met me on the street of life. It was a dark day with no hope on the horizon; He thought everything was lost; no job, no car, no place to live, and no one to love. His children are not with him. He felt lied to, cheated by someone who he thought loved him for who he is; she was after his money. He felt angry at God, cursed at God and at life. Looking sad and down.
An accident left him with a back injury. Surgery may not fix the problem; he was scare and fearful. With easy money came, easily it went out of his life fast. Nothing much is going for him. He did not know where else to turn. A wrong thought ended him up in a ditch of life filled with drugs, alcohol, woman and wild living. Nothing matters much any more. Everything left him empty, stressed out and homeless.
Growing up he was molested and abused; people he thought he could trust turned out to be his predators. He felt stuck and trapped in. In his desperation, he turned to a psychic woman who cheated him out of a lot of money by telling him more lies; he bought into her lies and lost more of his faith in God. Every time something went wrong he ran back to her for more counsel and more lies.
Then when the timing is right, God broke into his soul, revived his spirit and set him on the right path. He surrendered himself to Jesus, found God and Jesus Christ, the Healer and Deliverer. He gave his heart and his life to Christ right on the spot. God has entered his life and changed everything. Jesus even touched and healed his back injury after prayers.
Following up with him again, he showed no sign of pain in the back at all. He left me that morning with a big smile thanking God for what He has done for him.
God is great. He is good all the time. He is good to us, His children. Trust Him and obey His voice.
