What is your name, and where are you from?
‍My name is Leonardo, and I am from Passo Fundo.

Why did you decide to come to the crusade?
‍I have only recently started seeking God. I feel like I’m still a child on this journey. Throughout my life, several prophets told me that God had a purpose for me, but I always resisted. I chose to follow the world instead, and that only brought me worries and problems. I was unfaithful in a 15-year relationship, lived selfishly, and was not fair to the people around me.

How has your struggle in the area of relationships been?
‍I was recently engaged, but I betrayed my fiancée. My decision to be with another person led to the end of our relationship. Seeing all of this, I realized that God was still calling me and that until I surrendered my life to Him, I would keep going through deserts to learn the lesson.

What happened in your heart during this event?
‍Yesterday, I heard a powerful message about Jesus. It impacted me to see how He, being 100% God and 100% human, chose to die for us, knowing He would rise again. That shook me to my core. Today, with the arrival of the man of God Hyeok, I once again felt that the Lord is calling me. He made it clear that I must leave my past behind and walk fully with Him.

What miracle did you receive from God?
‍I have been praying for God to deal with my flesh and free me from impure thoughts. And today, God spoke to me directly through the preacher. He showed me that I need to ask my ex-wife for forgiveness. It has been two years since our separation, and I never had the humility to do it. We have a 5-year-old son, and God made me understand that to become a new creation, I must close that wound through forgiveness. For me, this is a miracle. Now I know I have to take that step.

Would you recommend Jesus as Lord and Savior?
‍Today, I am in a desert, seeking God to transform my life. And I want to tell the men who watch this testimony: it is not a beautiful body, a good image, or a great job that makes you a man. Having many women does not make you respectable. A true man is one who honors one woman for life because that pleases God.

We give thanks to Jesus for the miracle He has done in Leonardo’s life. All the glory be to God.
