Pain, a bridge between people

I want to share a story about strong faith of one woman in Ukraine. During the last days I went to my parents by train. A woman was sitting next to me. She was sad. We started a conversation and I found out that her son is in Russian captivity since March 2022 and she hasn't spoken to him in 5 months. She’s only waiting…  and she believes that he is alive and will return soon. I was deeply moved by her story and her strong faith. I didn’t know what to say, but I wanted to support her. I took her hand and said: “Let open your heart to God, tell Him about your pain and He can heal it.” After that I offered to pray together. We was praying… and crying… When it was time to say goodbye, she said me: “Thank you! Now I believe even more in his freedom.“
