SLW Testimony: “I Don’t Have To Be Afraid”

“Because of my past, I somehow connect ‘having a crush on someone’ as a shameful thing.  So I always feel punished and confused, and I feel like I have to hide.  When my team prayed with me [at Single Life Workshop], I felt dark clouds above me.  Then God showed me His umbrella is so big that He can cover me.  I saw that I can have fun under His umbrella.  My family can be there, too. (God will take care of my family.). My friends can be under the umbrella.  And an attractive man can be under God’s umbrella, too.  Our group helped me break off lies and go through forgiveness.  Then I physically felt a ray of sunshine on my back, shining on me.  The grey cloud was gone.  A group member asked a good question, ‘What will you do if the dark cloud comes back again?’ And I know God told me, and I answered, ‘I’ll go dance in the rain and play in the puddles.  I don’t have to be afraid.’  I am so much lighter since day two of the workshop, and even when scary things came up, I was excited to have fun with God.  P.S. The ray of sunshine is still on me.” – SLW Participant
