I wasn’t really excited about the idea, but then, this is where I earn my living. The journey was pretty smooth all the way. I cleared through immigrations, collected my luggage, walked to a custom officer, who checked my baggage. He was about to let me go, when he pointed to my handbag and said, "Give me that". After thoroughly checking the contents, he took out a big brown envelope, and said, "What’s this?" I said, "It was given to me at the airport for someone out here." He opened it, laughed and said, "Do you usually carry drugs for people?" I began to panic! There is no need to explain in detail what I went through at the airport. If only I could have seen it then, that through my weakness, Satan was having the time of his life. But then, Satan’s other name is ‘camouflage’. As strange as this may sound, most people, when they get into difficulties, the last thing they think of doing is to pray! And this is exactly what happened to me. Like most of the people, I was mentally, physically and spiritually worn out by fear. I let fear flood my soul. Whatever faith I had in me, I let fear destroy it. I allowed Satan to say to me, "Your life is over now and there’s nothing you can do about it." There was so much fear inside of me, that I completely forgot that I had the Lord on my side. I was totally controlled by fear. Slowly it dawned on me, and I cried out to the Lord, "Oh Lord, I’m scared. I want to go home. Please, I beg of you, take me home." And the next thing I saw was a familiar face. It was the face of a friend, my brother’s friend. Of course, I wasn’t allowed to talk to him because the officers wouldn’t allow me to. But the Lord allowed me and I said, "Ahmed, please tell my brother to call my lawyer, his number is in my brown wallet in my drawer." All I had to do was, put my trust in God and to resist the devil. It says in James 4:7 "Submit to God. Resist the devil and he will flee from you." Ofcourse, I didn’t know this then, but I know it now. I couldn’t close my eyes and pretend that the devil wasn’t there and that from then on, things would be perfect. No! I was detained at the airport for several hours. So many officers interrogated me. I began to get anxious and here’s another thing I didn’t know - the Bible clearly tells us in Matthew 6:34 "Don’t be anxious." I realised that my anxious behaviour did nothing to help me. All it did was make me feel God was far away. And finally after almost 7 hours of pure hell, the CID officers took me to the Criminal Jail. When we reached the jail, I was pushed into a 3x4 room that had 2 bathrooms in it, no window, just an exhaust on one side of the wall, and a huge black iron door. There were 12 other women in there too. Once again I let fear take control of my life. I just couldn’t believe what was happening to me. I was so frightened that I wanted the ground to open up and swallow me. I moved towards the extreme corner of the wall behind the door. I made a ball of myself, held on to my knees and then, in hardly a few seconds after I was locked in, my eyes read the words, "JESUS LOVES YOU AND ME" inscribed on that black iron door! The Lord knew that I was frightened and it was His way of reassuring me that He too was there with me. It clearly states in the Bible in Hebrews 13:5 "I will never fail you nor forsake you." As amazing as it may sound, it was the only way Jesus could tell me that He loves me and that He was there with me in that small cell! I felt in my heart that no matter what happened from then on, Jesus too was with me, holding my hand and He wouldn’t let go. I kept saying to myself, "Jesus loves me… Jesus loves me… Jesus loves me!" Although I didn’t have any reason to be happy, I was happy! But let me be very honest here. Even those words couldn’t take away the funny feeling I had in the pit of my stomach. Why? Because, I still let Satan control me with ‘fear’. I won’t deny it, I was still afraid! I didn’t know what was happening on the outside. If only I could have put all my trust in the Lord and believed in my heart that everything was going to be all right. But sad to say, I didn’t do that, at that moment. Fear had taken hold of me. I kept asking...

Forty years I walked in a wilderness of sin before I saw the light. I was living in Hawaii, and my wife, long a born-again Christian herself, encouraged me to attend Easter Sunrise services at a local church. While there, I heard several testimonies, had some fellowship with other church goers, etc. I almost left, in fact was gathering my two kids in making ready to leave, when I was approached by a late- middle aged couple, who began to share the gospel with me, in such a way that the truth finally dawned on me. I gave my life to Christ with my mouth on that day, but, didn't with my heart till several days later. I would study the new testament, and I would actually see the words float up off the pages and enter into my mouth. During prayer, I would sense a strong presence at my side, and knew it was Him, Jesus Christ. In the four years since He found me, He has blessed me beyond belief. He sent me to a one year intensive bible school, providing for me and my family each step of the way. He sent me on a mission trip to Fiji. Gifted me with ministries in hospitals, given me a home, a very good job. My children are saved. My son graduated from the same bible school and has a heart for missions. I have just been totally blessed, and, even though I yet sin, His grace and mercy forever forgives my transgressions. back to top Deborah Dunn EMail: creativeresources@coastalnet.com Hi....I am 47 years old and when I was in my mid-thirties the Lord reached down and answered my prayers to restore my life and my almost broken marriage and I rededicated my life to him. Later, when my 26 year old brother committed suicide he kept me from going insane and to comfort me blessed me with the dual talents of sculpting and songwriting...both of which I am now able to do professionally even though I have no formal training in either. I share my testimony in many places and many people have been encouraged by the victory I have because of Christ. I have now been married 27 years to the same wonderful man, have two great children, and I counsel people who are in crisis when led by God to do so. I have written many songs that have been recorded and have been told that my songs kept them from suicide or substance abuse. My sculpture is all over the U.S. I have written a Broadway-style musical that is being considered for production in a large Christian theatre, to be seen by thousands. All this happened after the age of forty. Can Jesus restore lives.... you betcha....may all the Glory be His!!!!! back to top
