During the week of the exhibition there were many who came in and just cried, there were several who were given the gospel and there were two who prayed the salvation prayer.

One in particular sticks in my mind,

The lady came in and stood quietly at the back with tears rolling down her face, my heart went out to her, as I looked at her I saw a beautiful and intelligent woman, damaged almost beyond recognition.

I went over to her and offered a listening ear, she explained how she had been abused and because of such great pain within she has been cutting herself, to relieve the pain.

My heart broke when she showed me her arms and legs and the gashes she had cut out of herself.

“I have tried everything,” she cried.

I asked her simply if she was ready to try God, she said yes, I took her hand and we went and sat on one of the pews.

Through both of our tears, I led her in the prayer of salvation, afterwards, she prayed silently for a while.

When she looked up, the picture ‘Breath of God’ was in front of her and she gasped, “that’s how it is” she said, “exactly how it is, He watches over us and looks after us, just like in that picture”.

She kept repeating, “thank you, thank you, you don’t know what you’ve done”. We talked a little while longer and then she left.

I will never forget her, I will pray for her whenever I think of her, which is often, it is such an honour to lead someone to Jesus; it is a moment I will always treasure.
