Enthusiastic with this newfound hope, Divya began visiting all the homes near hers and sharing Jesus with them.
(Karnataka, India)—Getting through seventh grade may not seem like much of an accomplishment. But for Divya, a student in Karnataka, India, it was an amazing feat. She was blind and could only study by listening to the teachers and answering questions aloud on her exams.
In spite of obvious obstacles, Divya made it through junior college and also became a good singer. But while she was able to accomplish much more than her society thought her capable of, she felt empty deep inside. And that was not from blindness.
At the worst point, Divya considered suicide. Her accomplishments were just not satisfying. Then the Lord sent Gospel for Asia missionary Balaji to her house at the right moment.
When Balaji visited, he offered Divya a Gospel tract, not knowing she was blind. When he realized that she could not read the tract, he stayed and talked with her. As he shared the Gospel, she was touched. Divya said she never knew that someone died for her sins and cared for her. She gratefully received Christ, realizing that He would fill the void she felt so deeply.
Enthusiastic with this newfound hope, Divya began visiting all the homes near hers and sharing Jesus with them. She still can't see, but she is guiding many to the knowledge of God's love for them.
Divya asks for prayer that the Lord would heal her from blindness, and that her ministry will bear much fruit for the Kingdom.
"Nothing is impossible with Him," our correspondent wrote. Divya believes it.
