A client named “Naomi” reached out to us in despair. She lost custody of her child and was yearning for a positive change in her life. She was feeling lost and uncertain about her future, so we offered her resources and kept her in our prayers, hoping for her guidance and healing.
To our surprise, just an hour later, Naomi called us back. “Prayers do get answered! It’s incredible,” she exclaimed with joy. She had been struggling with the high costs of recovery facilities and the lack of insurance, which had initially seemed like insurmountable obstacles. But her faith in God kept her going.
With the help of a compassionate individual, Naomi managed to enroll in OHP (Oregon Health Plan) over the phone. This newfound support led her to a detox facility and a few months later, she received custody of her child again.
Naomi’s story beautifully illustrates the power of compassion, prayer, and unshakable faith in God. It also reminds us of Hebrews 11:1, which says, “Now faith is confidence in what we hope for and assurance about what we do not see.”Faith can indeed move mountains.
