serve - monica handyside

My name is Monica, I am a proud Christian and I want to share with you guys my passion for serving and helping people!
I was once reading my Bible and read this verse: "Speak up for those who cannot speak for themselves, for the rights of all who are destitute. Speak up and judge fairly; defend the rights of the poor and needy" (Proverbs 31:8-9).
After I finished reading that verse, I began thinking to myself saying that I wanted to be the person that defends the rights for the poor people and speaks up for those who cannot speak up for themselves.
As time went by, I helped people living in troubled places or that were in troubled stages in life, and brought them to church with me.
Ever since I brought them to church, they have found belief in God Almighty, and have learnt that if God puts us in the situation, he will bring us through it.
That's one of the main reasons why I like to help people in their hard times, it makes them feel stronger. And when they have God to guide it, it makes them know that they aren't lonely because each one of us has storms in our lives, and Jesus is in the storm with us. :)
We believe in a God of the present, and reckon there is always something that you can share with others about God’s work in your life. Whether you’ve shared a story before or not, don’t be put off submitting three, four or twenty save-grow-serve stories! Don't delay, click here today!
save. grow. serve.
