Maia’s testimony is how God radically saved her. 🥺 This past #ressurectionsunday was different. She was away from home, but also right at home in another way. She was asked to share her testimony at her college church, @hc3.life 🥰 “And they have defeated him by the blood of the Lamb and by their testimony. And they did not love their lives so much that they were afraid to die.” – ‭‭Revelation‬ ‭12‬:‭11‬ At twenty-five, she reflects on her journey with the Lord, which began when she gave her life to Christ at nine. Growing up as a pastor and church planter’s kid, she was seen as the “perfect kid,” but inwardly she battled pride, shame, and sin. For years, she believed the enemy’s lies, thinking her secret struggles made her unworthy of grace. But God met her with love, not condemnation, and brought healing and freedom when she confessed her sins to her parents, just as James 5:16 says: “Confess your sins to each other and pray for each other so that you may be healed.” This #Thanksgiving, she wants anyone feeling lost or hopeless to know that there is nothing they have done, public or private, that can separate them from God’s love (Romans 8:38-39). His arms are open wide, and His grace is sufficient even in weakness. Accepting His love means never walking alone again. She also wants to honor and thank her parents, her future husband, and her community for loving her despite where she fell short and for being a safe space for her to grow higher in Christ. She wants to honor @jameshobsonofficial for asking her to share and for leading her spiritually since she was 18 years old. She was afraid and challenged to share, but God used him to call her higher. She also honors @sarahjayhobson for being her accountability partner and discipler. She loves them dearly and is grateful to have them as family 🫶🏾 “Three different times I begged the Lord to take it away. Each time he said, ‘My grace is all you need. My power works best in weakness.’ So now she is glad to boast about her weaknesses, so that the power of Christ can work through her.” (2 Corinthians 12:8-9) – addiction,salvation
