Testimony: How To Know When It's Time To Go?
A mentally underdeveloped child passed away last night at the age of 26.
There were times she would walk away from home. Every time she left, her brother would run after her and bring her back. Once she walked for over 10kms into the city. Amazing grace, he still managed to spot her among the crowd as he ran all the way. In a time where human trafficking is rife, her brother or mother would always find her safe. Great indeed is the work of grace in our lives.
Her mother would bring her to church every Sunday. She would sit quietly most of the time unless it was too hot in the hall. Post meetings almost everyone would greet her, and it was always lovely to see her smile.
The entire church began to see changes in her over a period of time. Her mother, a mighty woman of faith, always made sure her daughter come into the presence of God.
It's time when HE says it's time
Two days before her death, she desired to meet the church leaders. An uncanny request considering she does not understand much. Also, lockdown. She was relentless, and her mother and brother brought her to church to meet the pastor and team.
She got prayed over, and taken back home. Within a couple of days, she felt some pain in the stomach. Doctors had no clue what it was. A prayer request sent out got all the believers praying for her. She died in peace. It was amazing to see her final request to meet church ministers made possible.
When your last stop is church, we know it's time. Only God gives an expected end. Praise God!
For I know the thoughts that I think toward you, saith the Lord, thoughts of peace, and not of evil, to give you an expected end.
