Hi Nick, how are you? I hope this message finds you well. l just wanted to start by thanking our Savior Jesus Christ who died for me.
I lost my father on December 15th, 2022. It was a lot for me to take in and deal with. At the time of his passing l was not on good terms with him and it had been a long time since l had seen him, about 5 years. When l was growing up around the age of 14 my mother talked me into hating my father, and my father’s side of the family. She would tell me bad things about my father just for me to hate him and not support him. l hated him so much that l would tell people that l didn’t have a father.
So, when he died, l found out that my mother manipulated me into hating that side of my family and my father. l found out a lot of things that she was lying about all that time. A few weeks after my father’s passing l was harassed by my brother-in-law, and l thank God, He did not rape me. In 2023 l had a fallout with my mother and she started saying horrible things to me, she just wanted to manipulate me again, but l give thanks to God, Who opened my eyes to see right through her lies. But, I then became depressed and developed anxiety, thinking that my father’s death was caused by me.
Cuando crecí, nunca tuve el amor de una madre. Aunque tenía una madre, me odiaba sin motivo. Anhelaba que mi madre me quisiera, pero llegué a comprender que, hiciera lo que hiciera, nunca sería lo bastante bueno para ella.
Pero te estoy agradecido Nick, Dios te usó para ayudarme. Recuerdo haber visto tus vídeos sobre la depresión y la ansiedad, y sobre cómo Dios nos ama y está dispuesto a ayudarnos con nuestros problemas de salud mental.
So, l wrote a message about two times and the second time l gave my life to Christ. You sent your videos of inspiration, and in my new walk with Christ for 7 days you encouraged me to read my Bible, pray and find a local church to attend.
Since that day my life in Christ changed, from not believing that God can help me, to making me want to forgive my mother and those who did me wrong.
I believe that Jesus Christ the Son of God died for me, for my healing and to not to live in guilt.
So, thank you so much, you changed my life, l went from not being able to pray for at least 10 minutes, and right now l can pray for 1 to 2 hours and read the Bible. l now want to go out there and tell people about the goodness of God and His love.
Thank you so much, may God bless, my story is longer, but l shortened it. Thank you again, I thank the heavens for Your love for me.
