A woman named Christy shared her testimony about a time when God met her amidst depression.
Her Story
Christy is from Las Vegas and grew up living with her grandparents. Her parents had her when they were only teenagers. Her dad was a gang member, and her mother was always partying.
“My grandparents raised me, and I have no memory of my parents ever being together. They would co-parent; (I’m) living with my mom, and she had a drug dealer boyfriend,” Christy said.
She was raised in a trap house, which is where drugs are packaged and sent out. That was her life from the age of 3 to 7 years old.
“I battled abandonment issues from both of my parents,” she said.
When she was ten years old, the symptoms of depression started showing up.
“I would hear voices to kill myself; I would drown myself and have no control. And I’m telling myself, “Christy, you’re going to die. Stop drowning yourself,” but I could not stop,” she said.
God Encounters Her Amidst Depression
There were times she would bite herself and look in the mirror with thoughts of killing herself.
Christy had heard about Jesus, but she didn’t know who He really was.

“I’ve always heard Jesus knows me. He knows me, but He doesn’t watch me. How could He watch me if this is all going on in my life?”, she recalled.
When she was 19 years old, she had a boyfriend who had the same lifestyle as her parents.
She lived with him and found out that his whole family was practicing witchcraft. Christy got scared and found refuge at the church.
But her boyfriend was saved. And he invited Christy to pastor Vlad’s church.
Christy recalled, “He came knocking on my door, and he said, “It’s enough. The torment is enough. I’m tired of seeing you like this; you need help. I’m taking you to Pastor Vlad’s church.”
Woman Testified How God Encountered Her Amidst Depression
When Christy was depressed, she had 200 voices in her head, and she didn’t know the languages.
“When I started to manifest, it was like all the voices that were in here. I could hear the voices out loud, and I had no control over it,” Christy said. “And I remember beforehand, someone said, “Just surrender. Just surrender to the Holy Spirit. Let Him do what He has to do.” And I remember at that time, I’m so scared while I’m manifesting. And I could hear Jesus speaking to me, “Just let it happen, Christy; I’m setting you free.”
