Deborah Robinson's Testimony ...

"I am grateful to God for the Women of Purpose. I have been in W.O.P. since 1993. Since then, I have become more of the woman that God wants me to be. I am more confident in God. My faith in Him has grown. Women of Purpose has challenged me to be the leader God has called me to be. They have given me room to grow. There is Grace to make mistakes. This Gideon army is exceptional. Had it not been for the prayers of the righteous women of God, my story could be different.

My sisters have prayed me through very difficult times and many miracles have transpired through those prayers. My husband has come back in relationship with the Lord. He is now involved in Pathway to Maturity. Our relationship is growing and getting better by the moment. We prayed about our son, James, and he came off the streets. My sister has come to the Lord (W.O.P. helped me to pray). Her testimony is awesome. I told her about W.O.P., she became involved and the rest is history, college degree, home, etc. The thing about it is, when we sow seed into this vineyard, God gives such great increase back into our lives; it is GREAT. It is as my pastor preaches – seed time, harvest time. We sow here and we reap here.

I am a better mother and wife. A word imparted here, a prayer there, a tear, a smile, a hug -- they speak volumes. I know when I enter a room that my W.O.P. sisters are in, I know I am loved, no doubt. I have found a place to share my heart and know with every confidence that what I say is held in confidence.

All this would not be happening if the woman with the vision was not the woman of integrity that she is; if she did not keep her life as an instrument of His peace. Thank you, Dr. O. Virginia Phillips for being that leader, for being the example that lots of us never had."
