William's Testimonial:

"When everything in the world today is unstable, the only thing that is stable is Jesus. Each and everyone of us have victories in Jesus to attain. We have wars to fight, battles to win, and enemies to conquer. I have never been to war, but many of my battles have been personal, physical, and emotional. He does and will give us the strength to overcome our weaknesses. It is a never-ending battle but each and every one of us will attain victory in Jesus, someday. Just like the soldiers who fought for their country overseas, when they came home and beheld their homeland. I could feel just like they were feeling. Just a little bit of pride swelling up in them, him, or her, because you know someday my eyes shall behold that city and I shall see Jesus sitting on His throne. Then my time of battles will be no more and I can rejoice over them through Jesus, for eternity, I want to see Jesus saying to me, well done good and faithful servant. I want Jesus to be proud of me and I want to overcome."
