Will You Let God Love You?

Will You Let God Love You?

Amanda Bagwell of Whole Catholic was at the National Shrine of Our Lady of Good Help in Wisconsin sitting at the feet of a statue of Our Lady of Grace. Amanda heard God speak into her heart, "Will you let me love you?" Amanda responded, "I don't know how." This moment changed Amanda's life.

God has shown Amanda through the meaning of her name how to be loved. Amanda's name, Amanda Diane means beloved, worthy of love and daughter of the King.

Amanda shares the meaning of her first name in three parts:

*Be-loved By Him: Recieve God's love from God and others

*Be-love to others: show and express God's love to others through relationships

*Be-lov-ed: teach others to love through example, as well as intentional teaching

Amanda and her husband, Jansen have a deliverance ministry, Whole Catholic to help you get unstuck in faith and life. Learn how to experience mercy, find freedom and move forward to live the life God designed for you!
