When Airenada first started attending classes, she was battling depression and often struggled just to show up. She didn’t believe she could grow or learn in the state she was in. Now she sees that God used her time in our classes to lead her back to Texas and back to Him. Week by week, she learned that her doubts and lack of faith were lies the enemy had written on the walls of her heart. She was reminded daily of God’s goodness, and today she confidently believes that God loves her. Even though she cannot yet see or imagine His plans, she knows He has a purpose for her life.
