Voice of Truth Stories
Meet Tewannah Aman from Fort Lauderdale, FL
What an answer to prayer when God opened the most incredible door for me to become part of Women World Leaders. I am so thankful to be part of this amazingly talented and Spirit-filled team of women whom I am excited to work alongside. They aligned with the ministry God gave me to expand the Kingdom of Christ.
Years ago, I founded a ministry for women and teens called Guard Your Heart Ministries. My passion is to help individuals understand how to put Jesus first in every area of their lives.
In my younger years, I didn’t know how to do that; I spent too much time seeking others to make me feel complete, which left me feeling more broken and alone. The rejection left deep feelings of insecurity in my soul.
But God! Only God! I cried out, and He heard me. He revealed Himself to me; it was nothing short of miraculous. He empowered me to break free of the cycle of unhealthy behavioral patterns and enabled me to walk away from an individual who wasn’t putting Jesus first in his life.
God put the broken pieces of my heart back together again and did a mighty work to heal the deeply rooted insecurities that caused me to make foolish, sinful choices. What has happened in the past no longer defines me. I am a child of God.
When I say that I am a daughter of the King, my heart truly does believe it. I want individuals to understand how the Word of God heals the broken places and fills the empty spaces of their hearts. I want them to be confident that God has a plan, and He is doing a new thing ( Isaiah 43:18-19). He is a God who creates beauty out of the ashes.
Over the years, I believed God wanted me to reach more women. There were countless times when individuals would tell me that the Guard Your Heart teachings needed to reach a broader audience. I would pray and ask God to show me how this could be done and when. I continued working for Jesus and trusting in His Word and perfect timing. I was confident that, one day, His plan would unfold. A man’s heart plans his way, but the Lord directs his steps (Proverbs 16:9 NKJV). But when, Lord?
One of my dear friends, who went through Guard Your Heart, told me about Women World Leaders and a woman named Kimberly Hobbs. I couldn’t wait to connect with her. I can’t tell you what a blessing our first conversation was. We both have a passion to share the love of Jesus and the truths of His Word. We began to get to know one another, and she asked if I would pray about doing a podcast interview with Women World Leaders. My immediate response was a resounding Yes! I knew God was fulfilling a desire that was planted in my heart so many years ago. I was in awe! I was moved to tears, knowing that He truly does give us the desires of our hearts (Psalm 37:4).
I was honored to be a guest on the Women World Leaders’ Podcast. I so enjoyed my time fellowshipping with Kimberly, and the story continues. As God had it, she asked if I’d be willing to do a monthly podcast on my own for the ministry. I didn’ t hesitate. This was a dream come true. Only God can orchestrate events in the way that He does. It leaves me in awe.
My interview with Kimberly was released on WWL’s YouTube channel and across other podcast outlets, and soon after that, we began talking and praying about my becoming a podcaster for WWL.
There have been so many God confirmations that let us know it would be a “good fit.” I love how God puts a bow on things. No one else can get the glory for this story but God. We give Him all the praise.
As I learned of Voice of Truth and read it, I was impressed with the magazine. It is so beautifully and professionally put together. I am so encouraged by all of the heartfelt stories and beautiful articles. I love hearing how God has brought different women from many different walks of life to serve Him through this ministry. How humbling it is to be able to work with so many wonderfully gifted women of God.
The future looks bright, believing that, together, we will reach many more people for Jesus Christ.
