A Testimony of God’s Grace

Categories: Articles

Becca Logue and her husband, Ben, alumni of Heartland Baptist Bible College and members of Southwest Baptist Church in Oklahoma City, Oklahoma, are facing a faith-testing trial in their life—two of their children are battling a life-threatening genetic disease. Recently, at a ladies retreat, Mrs. Logue gave a testimony of God’s comfort to her and His grace in time of trial:

“It was on the way home from that ER visit that I hit the lowest point I have ever hit in my life. I started trying to think too far ahead again all at once, knowing that she had (the disease) and trying to think about what was going to happen to her in the months to come. I was crying and I could not stop.  I was almost hyperventilating. I literally felt almost a tangible blackness descending upon me.  I told my husband, ‘I have to get to God.  I’m going to crush.’

“We went home.  Of course, there are things that you have to do through the day.  That evening, I still felt the darkness. I understand now what people feel like with depression and the weight they feel.  I knew I couldn’t keep under that.  I asked my husband, ‘Can I just leave?  Can I get in the van?’ My husband is the most understanding and steady person in the world. ‘Absolutely! Go wherever you need to go,’ he said. ‘I need to meet with God,’ I said.

“I just started driving.  It was pouring rain.  I feel like the rain on the windshield is like what was happening inside me. I ended up at the Bethany Library, parked in front of the pond.  What God did for me there was a turning point.  I sat there and said, ‘God, I know You are good.’ God said, ‘I want you to be still.’ All these thoughts were swirling in my head.  I said, ‘Lord, help me to stop the thoughts. Help me to be still.’ As soon as I could get my heart still, this is what came to my mind, ‘Be still, and know that I am God.  Know that I am God! You need to know Who I Am.’”
