The Parting of the "Veils"



Hello readers,

                I wanted to share my testimony with all of you today. The following story is completely true. ry wThank you.

                 
Signed,

Kayla


                A new life. That was what I received that night. A friend of mine invited me to her grandmother’s church to listen to special guest speakers. At the end of the service, everyone in the room was asked if they were truly saved. I had such a mental struggle, that I could not handle it anymore. Everyday, I wanted to drop dead because I was tortured by the way others saw me in a past forgotten by everyone by myself. Enough was enough. I renewed my faith that evening, and my friend was saved as well.            
                On the way home, I saw something spectacular. I saw a group of stars organized into the shape of a cross. It may have been the Southern Cross, but I am not certain if it was. The luminescent image was between to perfectly parted clouds, the “veils” that separated me from Him. The cloudy skies of suicide, and overall sin, prevented me from seeing Jesus. No longer was I separated from the One who loves me.
                I had hope that night. I am glad that I attended that service. This shows that God will not give up on me. After all, he did not leave me when I was hurt. He wanted me to be with Him forever, and the only way I could do that was through Jesus. Granted, the darkness of self-harm still lurks around me. It lurks around many people. However, I now know that I am not alone, and that Jesus’s Light shines forever.
