Popular gospel musician Zabuli has announced a life-changing event that seeks to help women carrying past hurts and trauma encounter God’s healing and restoration.
On Wednesday, the former Muslim turned preacher revealed that many women in Church today live with unseen wounds and trauma due to devastating circumstances they experienced in the past including abuse, broken relationships, betrayal, rejection, addictions, sexual harassment among others.
According to her, such wounds can hold one back and damage their sense of well-being and wholeness, hence the need to learn to deal with them and press forward.
Has Church done enough to provide a safe-space where traumatized and wounded women can lighten their load without being judged?
Zabuli believes ministers of the gospel have to step up and reach out to wounded individuals including those who have “messed up in church,” for the “healed scars of our past wounds are evidence of God’s power.”
“I am not perfect yet but through my dark past, I am standing today to testify there is power in holding up one another in love without judgment,” Zabuli remarked on social media.
The event is scheduled for 7th March, 2020 at Kabalagala Pentecostal Church starting 4:00 PM. Entrance fee is Ush 10,000 (Students), Ush 20,000 (General) and Ush 50,000 for VIP.
“I am taking responsibility as one of the servants of this generation over the fact that many girls have been disappointed by church after they messed up. They were harshly judged, and thrown out for their mistakes,” Zabuli said.
“They were made to believe ‘God cannot forgive you after you mess up,’ but what is God without love? I am here to offer a place where you can heal by the grace of God with no judgement, a home where you will meet other angels like you who came from ruins to life testifying, I am here to tell you you cannot allow them to take any more power from you by letting them belittle you to the guilt of your mistakes. I am here to introduce a ground waiting for the warrior in you to ‘getup’ and get back in the ring, let God give you beauty for those ashes for nations are waiting,” she said.
“Girl, we have so much work to do, we have so many young and old lives to influence through our scars and testimony,” she said. “You are beautiful with your scars for they are proof of how long you have stayed in the fight and guess what, you have the belt of victory for allowing God to work with your ashes to beauty.”
