This morning, as I was praying through the requests in this week’s Prayer Partner email, I was deeply moved by one story in particular of a widow in Zambia. I cannot even begin to fathom the trauma of having my home stolen from me and my children taken away from me to a shelter as a result of my homelessness—all in the wake of my husband’s death. Compelled to share this with each of you, I’ve copied the story below.
Praise God for the staggering miracle of total restoration he has brought to Melody and her children!
From the Prayer Partner email update:
Give thanks to God for IJM Zambia client Melody Nanga, who recently won her property back through IJM’s legal intervention on her behalf. After going through severe traumatic situations, she now has her house, six rooms to rent and a small shop. She will soon be reunited with her triplets, who had been living in a shelter when Melody was homeless as a result of property seizure. They are returning to her now that she has her home back and a stable source of income.
