Voice of Truth Stories

MEET CINDY HUGHES FROM CLEMMONS, NORTH CAROLINA

Isn’t it great that God is all about relationships, connections, and communication? Just think about it. After creating this beautiful world and all the beautiful plants and various animals, He wasn’t satisfied. The God of the universe desired relationships, so He created mankind. I can’t help but think that He’s pleased with Voice of Truth and Women World Leaders, because they are all about connecting women, bringing women from all walks of life from all over the world together to grow spiritually, and bringing hope and encouragement to those in need of all the above.

What a beautiful gift.

I was introduced to Voice of Truth through my daughter, Lisa Hathaway, who first wrote in the 4th quarter 2022 edition. She said, “Mom you’ve got to check out Voice of Truth.” And she gave me a copy. I have tremendously enjoyed reading and sharing these God stories.

As I write this article, I am preparing for a short-term mission trip to Egypt. I was there in 2020, right before COVID hit. My heart’s desire is to go into other countries, sharing the gospel of Christ with many who have never heard the name of Jesus. Many have been misled and misguided in their beliefs of how to get to heaven, and many are unsure that their eternity with Jesus is secure. Many believe their eternity is based on works or good efforts, so they live in fear they won’t make it to heaven. Our liaisons in the country work months in advance in preparation for the international project, setting up home visits with unbelievers, schools, and groups we can share with depending on the country with their limitations and opportunities. It has been a true blessing to my life these past 15 years, and I am grateful God has given me this opportunity and privilege.

I was diagnosed with lung cancer in 2020 and just last week had a new PET scan. I’m still in a “holding pattern” with it. God is using a daily targeted therapy chemo pill to treat the EGFR mutation I have. So, it continues to mean even more that I’m able to participate in these mission trips. I told God that I’ll go as long as my health permits. So, my friends, whether it’s here or on the other side of the world, and whether we feel our life is exciting or are sometimes just going through the motions, know that He loves you. He laid down His life for you. He desires that you snuggle into intimacy with Him, no matter the circumstances in your life.

Let His joy and peace overtake you, and let His Holy Spirit be your present help in times of trouble, need, or even on the mountaintop. May God bless and keep you, cause His face to shine upon you, and give you peace.
