I bear this scar and pain for Jesus. This is the mark that I left darkness into light.
Although, after many surgeries, the medical complications are still there, but I will never go back from following Jesus.
I was in a church sharing my salvation experience, and after I have preached and about 300 hundred gave their lives to Christ, as I was coming out of the church, some people shouted, Pastor we need your help.
Unknown to me, they were angry Muslim who were bittษred because of a growing number of people who are leaving Islam in my community in Gambia because of my testimony.
As I looked back, one of them poured a bucked of acid on my face, as I turned the other side, another one poured another bucket of acid and they were shouting:
"Allahu Akbar, Allahu Akbar, Allahu Akbar".
My eyes were affected but not totally blinded. I am joyfully bearing the scars and the pain. That is the price I have to pay in following Jesus.
Brethren stood by me, they prayed for me, they took care of me. There is love in Jesus.
Please ๐ pray that the Lord will heal my pains completely. Pray for my faith not to shake.
Although, they are still threatening me, but there is no going back from following Jesus.
