became very difficult. Though we had many
friends, relatives and family around us, they
were not even the least bothered about our
critical condition. The meagre amount we
received from my father's pension was not
sufficient for our survival. Sometimes there was
not even enough food to eat in our house.
Another problem that caused untold pain in our
hearts was my elder sister's family life. She had
been married seven years ago, but her family life
was not at all happy. Her husband was a hard
man who beat her every day. One day he sent her
back to us and told us he was thinking of
divorcing her and marrying another. I earnestly
prayed for my sister and her husband, and asked
some godly people to do the same.
As if we didn't have enough problems, our debts
kept on increasing. We just could not manage to
repay them, and this worried us. My brother,
being a small boy, could not help our family in
any way possible. Not knowing what to do, I just
decided to end my life. I attempted suicide many
times, but somehow at the last moment I could
not bring myself to perform this horrible deed.
In deep despair, one day I tuned my radio to your
programme. As I began to listen to the
broadcast, I felt the Lord speaking to me
personally, reminding me that there is a solution
for every problem in Jesus Christ, and that true
peace comes only to those who fully trust in Him.
As the radio broadcaster prayed, I joined him in
prayer and asked the Lord Jesus to forgive my
sins and make me whole. That very moment, I
was filled with the peace of God. From then on
my heart was constantly filled with joy and
happiness, knowing that Jesus has saved me
from my sins. I also received hope and
assurance from knowing that the Lord would
surely take care of my family also.
I am so thankful to you for broadcasting this
radio programme through which my life has
been changed. Please pray for my family. Thank
you.
Ajuli will be forever grateful that she tuned in to a
GFA Radio broadcast on that fateful day.
