How The Candle Got Lit

We received the following testimony from a Canadian sister who recognized the call of the Lord when her husband presented it to her. She is referring to the Good News article published on March 30, 2012.

My testimony is similar to Sister Linda, only it was my husband and his church praying for me. I grew up in church with a saintly aunt but got away from it in my teens. The seed was planted though.

I remember visiting a lot of denominations with friends but the pants and other things didn’t seem right to me. I have always had this conviction in my heart, that when I start serving the Lord, I will do it 100% with all my heart.

My husband was a gangster and I was a worldly street girl. We fought constantly with no peace in our lives. My husband was in and out of jail for a period of seven years. We sought solace in different denominational churches, but it did not help.

I left him and moved to a different city, and decided to file divorce.

He had a visit from the Lord his last time in jail and also receive a Message book. He tried telling me about it and even sent me some pamphlets of Brother Branham. I put them in the garbage. I thought he was pretending to be a Christian so we could get back together. I didn’t want anything to do with him. Then he got baptized, and after a few months, he spoke to me again and sent me three messages. One of them was Marriage And Divorce. I read it and my eagle eyes came open. All the filthy clothes, makeup, drinking, smoking, and partying went right away. I came back to my husband and got baptized in 1997, December 19, on my birthday.

I never thirst for the things of the world anymore. I am redeemed by His grace.
