“I lost my husband two years ago because of cancer. I live with my four children and have some properties as a business woman. I hated Christians as a conservative Muslim.
“One night I heard a voice calling me saying, ‘Jesus loves you, come and share’. I got up but there was no one around, not even my children. I thought it was a bad dream so I laid on my bed again. But I could not sleep, the voice disturbed me.
The next day, at the time of early morning prayer, Jesus appeared to me and said, ‘I am your hope, I will take you to the place of true peace if you just believe in me. Go and talk to *Abdul, he will teach you the right way and you will be my child.’ So I went and talked to *Abdul secretly, he directed me what to do and I accepted Jesus. Now I know I have a protector, who cares for and guides me.
If my husband was alive, it would have been a challenge for me to live for Christ. But I can share and give testimony of my spiritual experience to my children, little by little, to let them know about Jesus. Though still I go to the mosque, my prayer is to Jesus.
My life is full of joy. I started using Come Follow Me, it is eye opening. I read the book every night, after all my family members go to bed. I am confidentially reaching out to some customers who come to my shop and cafeteria. Some are interested to hear more about Jesus. So far two of the waitresses have received Jesus and I am introducing some of the topics you taught me. I will prepare a space inside my shop and cafeteria, so that new believers can find space for prayers and bible study. “
