From Unbearable Pain to Unshakable Purpose
A Life on the Brink of Despair
On the brink of ending his life, Rick’s* only thought was for his cat—who would care for her? Little did he know, a miraculous event was about to change everything.
A Bold Step Toward Faith and Healing
Rick’s journey toward healing began when a stranger approached him with a bold message: give your heart to Jesus, or you will die. For the first time, Rick stepped into a church and asked God to come into his life. Days later, still battling relentless pain and with little hope from his doctor, Rick called the prayer line at 8:00 p.m. A Prayer Partner listened and prayed over him, asking for God’s healing touch. Filled with faith, Rick believed that something was about to change.
Miraculous Healing
By 9:30 p.m. that same evening, the pain that had dominated Rick’s life for months was completely gone—and it has never returned. God didn’t just heal Rick’s physical pain; He saved his life and gave him a renewed purpose. “God saved my life, and it is my purpose to share the good news with everyone I meet,” Rick shared. What once felt like the end of his story became the start of a new chapter filled with hope, healing, and faith.
