From the Valley to Victory

The journey called life has many twists, turns, and uphill battles. Circumstances can catch a person unaware, leading him/her into an abyss of the unexpected. But, the Bible says, "We are not ignorant of Satan's devices," (II Corinthians 2:11). Therefore, we do not have to fall prey to our adversary. Furthermore, with the Lord guiding us, we can make it through any circumstance, regardless of how tumultuous it may be.
Audrey Pearl Williams, from the age of thirteen, began to experience a life that was not the life she had planned or envisioned for herself. She had planned to graduate high school and then set out into the world, seeing all God had created for her to enjoy. But, almost in an instant, she found herself married and with child. Then, when she least expected it, her life grew increasingly disparaging, as she suffered through church ridicule and mean-spirited churchgoers, while she attempted to answer the call God had placed upon her life.
What became of Audrey after navigating through life's unexpected twists and turns, heartbreak and pains, unfulfilled dreams and losses? Did she eventually gain joy, fulfillment, and peace? Did God finally answer her prayers?
As you read this true story of Audrey Pearl's life, revisit your own life's journey and recall the power of God. Remember, He said in His Word, "I will never leave you nor forsake you," (Hebrews 13:5). As Audrey traversed through her life's journey, God was with her every step of the way.
