Damira didn’t know how much more heartache she could handle.
Her husband had recently abandoned her and left her to raise three small children on her own. Her pantry was bare, and she was running out of money to buy food for her family.
One cold morning, she left her children in the care of her sister and walked a couple of miles out of her small city to an ancient tomb in the middle of the desert. Damira spent two solitary weeks at the tomb, crying out to God for help.
At night, Damira felt petrified. She feared the evil spirits that were said to linger around gravesites after dark. She huddled against the cold exterior of the tomb, pleading with the saint to keep the spirits away from her.
She slept in fits. But each time sleep overcame her, Damira dreamed of a man who called her to follow Him.
“I will show you the right way,” He told her. She woke up from these dreams feeling flooded with peace.
She huddled against the cold exterior of the tomb, pleading with the saint to keep the spirits away from her.
Shortly after returning home, Damira met Rayanne, a Muslim-background believer [in Christ]. Rayanne invited Damira to watch a movie about Jesus. Damira agreed to see the film, even though she had never heard of Jesus.
The movie started with Jesus’ birth and His early years. But when the story jumped ahead to Jesus being baptized as an adult, Damira began shouting, “That’s Him! That’s Him!”
