In moments of deep despair in your life, where do you turn? 🙏 Sue's call to "The Patrick Madrid Show" was a heartfelt testimony of her journey from despair to hope. In early September, Sue reached out in a state of deep distress, overwhelmed by the challenges in her life. Recognizing her need, Patrick Madrid connected her with a priest who provided much-needed spiritual guidance. During their hour-long conversation, the priest advised Sue to pray the Rosary daily. Committing to this brought about a remarkable transformation. Sue experienced a profound moment of grace and lightness, symbolized by her emotional realization under a bright blue sky. She likened the warmth of the sun to feeling the presence of the Son, possibly indicating the Holy Spirit's influence in her life. This moment marked a significant shift in her perspective and emotional state. Additionally, Sue recounted an impromptu prayer session with a priest after Mass, which brought her closer to the tabernacle and offered her immediate comfort. Through these experiences, Sue expressed immense gratitude for the support and guidance she received, attributing her emotional healing to the combined effect of the priest's advice, the power of the Rosary, and the caring environment fostered by Patrick Madrid and Relevant Radio.
