— “Sometimes, we are reminded that pain and suffering are inevitable parts of the human experience. As Christians, we may face adversity in the form of an illness. Sickness has the potential to cripple us mentally, physically, and emotionally, but it can sometimes allow us to shift our emphasis away from our daily lives and toward God. Experiencing sickness may feel overwhelming or frightening, but it can also help us grow closer to God and strengthen our faith. Sometimes, God uses some of us best when we are weak and ill to perform something we could never have dreamed of. “
Valeria interviews Edmane Castor — She is the author of “52 Weeks of Uplifting Prayers and Guided Reflection: Daily Devotion and Scripture Reading to Deepen Your Relationship with God.”
Edmane Castor was born in a small town called Duveger, near Fonds-des-Nègres in Haiti. She dedicated her life to God at the age of 12. At the age of 23, God spoke to her and called her to become a minister of the gospel in the Salvation Army. She left her country, her family, and her friends and moved to Jamaica, and joined the Salvation Army Training College. At the end of her training, she married her spouse and they were both commissioned and ordained as Salvation Army officers (ministers).
God dispatched her and her husband to serve in over 22 nations in the Caribbean, Africa, and North America to minister to others. During her career, she has had the honor and privilege of mentoring, preaching, counseling, advising, and providing social services to thousands of people. She has also helped many individuals work through their problems and grow spiritually and become closer to Christ.
She is thankful to God for choosing her, breaking her, molding her, and using her for His purpose and mission.
She is currently a retired minister and a Commissioner of the Salvation Army but is always actively writing about her relationship with God.
