Hello, my name is Alex 😁 and I would like to share my testimony with you. In 2023, I went through a situation where I was having very bad intrusive thoughts that disrespected God. There were several ways to cure myself from this: I was taken to a psychologist, but she didn't cure me. I was taken to a Ubandista center, but it didn't cure me. I was taken to a spiritualist center, but it didn't cure me. I took a bath with coarse salt, but it didn't cure me either! I remember that I would make strange gestures and also put pressure on myself, to try to make these thoughts stop. This got worse over time and it got to the point where I thought I had committed the unforgivable sin. I felt so finished at that point and also condemned, with a terrible thought that I had thrown my entire life away and that I was condemned; this was the most painful feeling I have ever felt in my entire life! However, my father was with me during this time, helping me, and the Holy Spirit renewed my hope, even though the thought returned. I was also taken by my father to talk to a priest at a church near my home. After the conversation, my father and I went into the church (it was not mass time) and I knelt before the altar. There I asked the Heavenly Father for a second chance and I think I may have made some promises. Until one night, at my grandmother's house, they called a pastor to come and talk to me (at the time he lived near her house). He came with his wife and their two very cute little daughters, and we gathered in the living room. We talked a little about my situation and after the conversation, the pastor and his wife prayed for me. That was when the miracle happened. I remember feeling a sensation like something running down one of my arms and I even cried. It was from then on that I was healed by the Holy Spirit! My mind was at peace and I also remember feeling as if half of it had been taken away from me! It was at peace after so long. From that moment on, a new period in my life began. I began to seek God, read the Bible and also go to church. The pastor gave me that same Bible and I still have it and read it to this day. I was shaped over time, and the Holy Spirit helped me to abandon habits and things and also ways of thinking, making sacrifices. Today I am a new person, completely different from the person I was before. I have become a child of God. Unfortunately, I still have defects and countless flaws, but it is thanks to the Holy Spirit and the Lord that I have come this far, after so many things. May the Lord bless all of you who have read this far! Stay well!
