TESTIMONY TIME!

Before coming to the Asia Pacific Nazarene Youth Conference (APNYC), I was carrying so much pain in my heart. I was struggling mentally, emotionally, and spiritually. There were so many things happening in my life that I slowly lost my trust in people. I became tired, hurt, and discouraged.

There was even a time when I wanted to stop serving God. I kept asking myself, "If people will judge me anyway, then why should I continue? Sometimes I couldn't even see the difference between some Christians and non-Christians." Those thoughts made me question my purpose and my desire to keep serving.

But praise God, the enemy did not win.
As the conference was getting closer, I felt like the enemy was doing everything possible to stop me from attending. There were many challenges, but God made a way. He provided through the kindness and generosity of many people. I am deeply thankful to everyone God used to help me be part of APNYC. You became part of God's answer to my prayers.

On the very first night in Tagaytay, God spoke directly to my heart. He reminded me that before He could use me, I needed to surrender everything to Him. The theme of the conference was Holy Surrender, and that was exactly what my heart needed.

That night, I cried before God and surrendered everything I had been hiding inside. My pride, my hurt, my anger, my doubts, my fears, my disappointments, and every burden I had been carrying for so long. I stopped pretending that I was okay and simply let God heal me.

I prayed, "Lord, I want to be a blessing to the people around me. Use my life for Your glory. I surrender everything that is not pleasing to You. My plans, my dreams, my pain, and even my future belong to You."

God met me in that moment.

Throughout the conference, God slowly changed my heart. He taught me to understand people instead of judging them. He taught me to love people the way He loves them. He reminded me that forgiveness brings freedom and that surrender is not losing something it is trusting God with everything.

APNYC was more than just a conference for me. It became the place where God restored my heart, renewed my faith, and reminded me of my calling. It was my breakthrough.

My circumstances may not be perfect, but my heart is no longer the same. I choose to trust God again. I choose to keep serving Him. I choose to surrender my dreams, my future, and my whole life to Him.

My prayer is that this will not be the end of what God has started in me. I pray that He will continue to humble me, shape me, and use me for His glory. May my life always point people to Jesus, because everything I am and everything I have belongs to Him alone.

To God be all the glory.

It's Testimony Time! ☺️

"I thank God for giving me the opportunity to attend this important event that empowers and uplifts women in leadership. As someone who has only recently stepped into a leadership role, I honestly did not know where to begin or how to lead effectively. That is why deciding to attend this leadership conference meant so much to me. I came hoping to gain ideas, principles, and guidance on how to become a better woman leader.

However, what I experienced at the conference was far beyond learning strategies or gaining knowledge. My heart was opened, and my mind was renewed. I realized that leadership is not just about ideas, skills, or knowing what to do. It is about who you are and your relationship with God and with others. It is about having the right mindset and spirit.

For me, the conference became a moment of revival and reconciliation in my relationship with the Lord. I am praying that the lessons and experiences I received will remain rooted in my heart and continue to guide me as I lead.

Thank you for giving me the space to reflect, learn, unlearn, and gain clearer direction in leadership."

"Great things happen when people connect with purpose and collaborate with vision."

Our recently concluded NYI Meeting with the Young Professionals was a meaningful time of collaboration, connection, and shared responsibility.

With our theme, "Collab and Connect," we gathered to strengthen relationships, align our goals, and discuss matters that contribute to the growth of our ministry. One of the key highlights of the meeting was the presentation of financial report and the discussion of our commitments and obligations, fostering transparency, accountability, and stewardship among our young professionals.

We are grateful for everyone who participated, shared insights, and contributed to the discussions. As we continue to connect and collaborate, may we remain united in purpose and committed to serving God and His church with excellence.
