I had a wonderful conversation with Ida about faith and Christian living. She shared her story so that all of us may know that God has good works in-store. It is remarkable to see how God takes the bad and ugly things in our lives and use them as powerful testimonies to shape us into faithful leaders. Regardless of what we have endured and the ugliness of it, surrender yourself to God and watch Him turn it into a platform to communicate to others. Within all of us is a story that relates to another person in need of encouragement. Allow God to use you and become that beacon of light that reveals the truth of Him and ourselves within Him.
