The English story below is translated from the approved Japanese readable testimony. The original recording is in Japanese.
Singing and listening to stories at church
I would like to introduce myself. I loved singing and listening to stories at church. I have been guided by my wonderful, beloved Jesus, and each day I live with gratitude.
But this year, I felt that the Lord was testing the strength of my faith.
Pain in my foot, and troubles in my family
It began with severe pain in my foot. Even when I took medicine or tried massage and acupuncture, the pain kept getting worse.
Then my family faced serious illnesses and surgeries. Within about six months, all four of us went through circumstances that put our lives at risk.
Even in the darkest depths, I prayed
As I had always done, I entrusted the situation to the Lord, shared my feelings with Him, and prayed.
I prayed that my younger brother and sister would not leave this world before me. It was the darkest time I had ever experienced.
Our family survived, and my sister did not have to have her leg amputated. I believe the Lord heard my prayers and the prayers of those around me.
Treatment continues, and I ask you to keep praying
My sister is gradually recovering, and her leg did not have to be amputated. But she is still receiving treatment, and we cannot relax our vigilance yet.
Please continue to pray that she can stand on her own feet and sing on stage once again.
