A WeUsed2bu Woman's Testimony: Melissa's Story
My New Year's Resolution was for me to do whatever it took to be closer to God this year. The other day I went from searching different websites to being saved last night. For some reason God brought me to your website and gave me the strength to take me out of my comfort zone and contact you. I am so blessed that he did.
I am truly blessed and grateful for you (Lisa) walking up there with me and sharing that moment with me. I admire the both of you and what you guys are doing. I was raised in a Catholic home. Although, I never understood his word I always believed in God. He has truly been my Savior throughout the years.
At 18 my father shot and killed my mother and then pulled the gun on himself. At 19 I was in an abusive relationship with a drug addict. I was beat pretty much every other day. I used to cry to God and ask why was He putting me in this type of a situation when I had lost my parents? I felt hopeless. I went from having everything to losing everything, to losing everything including my dignity.
What I didn't realize is that I had him. God was always there. For some reason I had to go thru what I went thru to become the strong woman I am today. God didn't make my life easier He made me stronger! He gave me the strength to leave that relationship in the middle of the night with 2 bags to my name and never look back. It wasn't easy having no one to turn to but Him.
I went from living house to house and having my closet in the trunk of my car. I saved up enough money and purchased my first home at the age of 21. I worked all day and went to school every night. He gave me the strength to get up every morning and accomplish everything I have. I have everything because of Him. I am truly blessed that I had Him there every step of the way. He never left me. He was next to me the whole entire time. I could have strayed but He kept me moving forward.
With everything He has given me I hadn't thanked Him until yesterday. I know in my heart I was destined to meet you guys. I want to thank you so much Lisa for giving me that courage to walk up there last night and be saved and to finally say thank you from the bottom of my heart to God. For I have everything now. I am grateful that Jesus has brought you to me. If this website was to touch one woman, well then the job has been accomplished. Thank you so much ladies! I hope we stay in contact. Keep up the good work! May God bless the both of and your families.
Love Always,
Your new sister

Melissa, your story truly touched my heart. Lisa is my sister and I am so proud of what she is doing. She is so dedicated to making a difference in everyone's life in such a wonderful way. It is amazing to me how she herself has so much going on and yet always finds the time to search for those in need. To help them. To guide them. To show them the word of God. Melissa, I wish you and your family the best and God Bless. Lisa, I Love you with all my heart. I read your articles and I think, WOW...that's my sister! Look at what she is doing, that is just Awesome!
Hallelujiah, an awesome testimony and another new creation...
To Melissa i say congrats and may God give you the strength to continue perservering and relying soley on his Word, draw close each day and he will never let you down, remember we are more than conquerers!!
To Lisa is say, THANK YOU for continuing to edify us with your blogs and advise, your words are annointed with the Holy Spirit and you have a awesome impact to those who are seeking, i remember when we went to Calvary and i got saved.. Dec 19,2007!!!
keep doing what u do!!
Praise the Lord! Welcome to the family.
I love the imagery of angels partying in heaven over one saved soul.
When someone is the complete opposite to what you are or would talk to or hang around with, just remember, Jesus wants to throw a party over that soul.
9th Jan is my anniversary of entering the Kingdom of Heaven, yesterday was my 15th year of walking with Jesus...of an eternal life!
Praise the Lord.
Thank you so much Vicky for posting this comment. You know better than anyone what God can do with someone who is a mess and lost in trouble, because you saw how I was without Jesus.
My hearts desire is forever else to know that we are not alone. We have a loving God who just wants us to trust Him with our lives. Once we realize that we are sinners in need of a Savior then our whole lives change. That's what happened to me.
So..I will spend the rest of my days helping others find their way to the cross and encouraging those who are saved to walk in the freedom and power that Christ has given us, as well as to be living testimonies of Christ love.
I love you soooo much.
A New Me (Bro Mike)
Thanks for your comment..
You have no idea how humbled I am to be apart of watching you, Melissa, and others come to know the Lord. When I see it happen right before my eyes I know for sure that I am doing what I was born to do, win souls for the kingdom of heaven. I know that generational curses are being broken and entire generations are being changed forever. Glory be to God who divinely appoints these moments. Praise Jesus...
