[TESTIMONY]

There was a point in my life where I felt completely overwhelmed.

I was in college, away from home, struggling with bad grades, feeling alone, stressed, and fighting battles that nobody else could see. I found myself falling into the same sins over and over again, trying to find comfort in things that could never truly satisfy me.

I reached a point where I felt like I couldn't keep going.

I remember taking the medication, falling to the floor, and feeling like I had finally reached the end. I had tried carrying everything on my own for so long, and in that moment I realized I had nothing left.

But then I heard Him.

I heard the voice of God reminding me that if I went to sleep, I wouldn't wake up — and that I wouldn't be able to get up unless I trusted Him.

I tried to push myself up in my own strength and I couldn't.

And what makes it even more crazy is that I was going to the gym every day. I was doing pushups every morning and every night. But in that moment, I couldn't even lift myself an inch off the ground.

Then I surrendered.

I confessed with my mouth that Jesus Christ is Lord. I trusted Him. I truly believed and accepted Him.

And in that moment, I got up.

Not because of my own strength — but because of His.

That moment was not the end of my story. It was the beginning of a new one.

That was a year ago.

Now, the same room where I felt like I had no hope has become a place where Bible studies happen. A place where people come together. A place where conversations about God happen. A place where I get to share what Jesus has taught me and encourage others through videos and conversations.

The same place where I felt lost became a place where God's message was shared.

That is what Jesus does.

He takes broken places and creates something beautiful. He takes people who feel like they are too far gone and reminds them they were never too far for His love.
