Did growing up feel smooth for you?

For Nadine Calagui, childhood was tough. Her parents often argued, and it broke her heart.

One night, Nadine found comfort in watching the 700 Club Asia and felt like it was a message from God. Seeking more, she reached out to the CBN Asia Prayer Center, which helped her family to find a church.

But even with their newfound faith, her parents still ended up separating.

Ever thought everything was going great, only to see it all fall apart?

Because of this, Nadine looked for love in the wrong places and found herself in tough spots. She became a mom at the young age of 14 and dealt with a relationship where she was physically abused by her live-in partner.

Despite these experiences, she continued attending church.

“Every time I heard God’s word, it brought me comfort and conviction,” Nadine admitted. “However, after Sunday, I would find myself going back to my sinful life. I knew this wasn’t the life meant for me.”

With courage, Nadine broke free from her toxic relationship after having a terrible fight with her partner. She knew she had to escape. Calling out to the Lord for help, He answered her.

God had a plan for Nadine. She met and married Albert, who accepted her completely.

At this point in her life, Nadine saw God’s faithfulness from childhood to now. Moving forward, she held onto His promise.

“Being confident of this, that He who began a good work in you will carry it on to completion until the day of Christ Jesus.” (Philippians 1:6 NIV)

Now, Nadine alongside Albert, ministers and reaches out to the youth.

“I believe I’m whole, redeemed, and lack nothing because of God’s work in my life,” Nadine shared.
