No one is giving me any information and I felt fear and I felt faith kind of coming up,

0:15.0

coming up the two seconds there. And I knew I had to choose one of them.

Listening to this testimony has a way of strengthening my faith and trust in God, and I now have the mindset that God is never tired of working miracles. He will send help to anyone who dares to believe in him. Enjoy today's episode.
