“I was really in despair. Total despair. I’d been humiliated. I’d been rejected. I believe I would have been a suicide victim if not for Cross Connections. It saved my life. It just saved my life.

“I learned that I’m not in control and I don’t have to be in control. That I can trust the Lord to handle it and I think I needed to learn that, even in a deeper way. We all say we trust the Lord but when push comes to shove sometimes we think that he’s busy and we’ll take care of it. And it doesn’t work like that. He’s blessed me all the way through this mess in huge ways. Not just details but in big, big ways. Saying, ‘I love you, I hear you, I see you and you can let me have it.'”
