Lost it all- MY TESTIMONY – Amanda S3E7
Summary
My name is Amanda. I grew up in an Italian Catholic family where my grandfather, a huge influence on my life, taught me the joy of sports and instilled in me the values of hard work and perseverance. I enjoyed early success—earning a college scholarship, excelling in athletics, and even achieving my dream of playing competitively—until my life took a catastrophic turn. At 27, I began experiencing a life‐threatening heart arrhythmia that forced me into repeated hospitalizations, and soon after, my marriage crumbled, leaving me without my husband, home, job, or financial security. Amid overwhelming loss and the pain of watching my mother’s health decline, I felt abandoned and lost my sense of identity. Then, a call from my cousin Marianne and a heartfelt conversation at a church event changed everything. Through prayer, tears, and a sincere surrender to Jesus—the Prince of Peace—I discovered that true restoration comes from God alone. Although I still face physical challenges, His grace has renewed my heart and spirit, proving that even when you lose it all, God can restore what matters most.

Is there a specific prayer for healing or prayer for the sick? What are some bible verses about healing? Can I trust in God? Amanda did not know that God had a plan for her life. She may have lost her husband, home, health and finances. But she would discover Jesus is all she really needs. Amanda knew her answers were not in how to find inner peace. But rather, her answer was in the Prince of Peace. Peace has a name, and His name is Jesus.
Each person has heard the gospel (good news) of Jesus Christ and believed in it wholeheartedly.
“What is the gospel? What is the good news?”
First you need to know the bad news to understand how good the good news really is. The bad news is that God is good and holy and so He must punish all sin.There is no sin in heaven or in God’s presence.
“What does that mean for all people? Every single person has committed some sort of sin. So does that mean we are all going to burn in hell and not go to heaven? Because if God is good He has to punish all of us sinners?”
Here is the BEST news you have EVER heard. God loves you so much. Because God is full of mercy, grace, & love, instead of punishing us for our sin, He punishes His Son Jesus on the cross. Even more incredible, Jesus’ perfect- sinless life (AKA His righteousness) gets accredited to our account.
“What? Could this be true? Our sin is completely forgiven because Jesus died in my place on the cross? My moral debt cancelled?” – YES!
When God looks at your life, He now sees Jesus perfect life.
“So now I can go to heaven?” – YES!
Make no mistake, this is all true for the one who believes. All your good works cannot earn you heaven, rather Jesus’ work on the cross earns us heaven. All we have to do is repent (turn from our sin, be broken/sorry for our sin) and believe! Now the question is, do you believe Jesus and this good news? If this is this the first time you have heard the gospel presented to you in this way and you want to follow Jesus, nothing is stopping you from doing it RIGHT NOW. Pray and talk to Jesus. Confess your sin and give your life over to Him. After you have a good cry with God in prayer, read the Bible and start attending church on Sunday.

Each christian testimony describes what it looks like to follow Jesus and be forever changed by the work of the Holy Spirit in their lives. When you have saving faith, along with repentance in Jesus Christ (death, burial and resurrection) – you become a believer. You become adopted into the family of God. You begin to hate what God hates, and love what God loves. It’s almost has if you have new eyes and see the world through the cross and resurrection of Jesus.
