Shashikila’s family was frantic. It was bad enough that the elderly woman had lost her sense of memory, but now she had wandered from home. They didn’t know where she was or how to find her. But there was a GFA missionary in their village. Maybe, just maybe, if Pastor David prayed to his God, they would get their loved one back.
The family visited Pastor David and asked him to pray for Shashikila’s safe return. “As a church we prayed for her,” Pastor David writes, “and the Lord brought her back safely.” That wasn’t all. As Pastor David earnestly prayed for Shashikila, the Lord intervened and restored her mind.
Today Shashikila worships Jesus. Her family has embraced her new faith. “The Lord’s name was glorified through this incident,” Pastor David writes. May this family shine as a witness of God’s love to spiritually dark hearts in their Tamil Nadu village.
