    Very eye opening! I used to think like “hihingi sya ng sorry tas di rin naman magbabago edi useless din kung papatawarin ko sya”
    Hindi pala dapat ganun dahil forgiveness is a choice. Kung talagang gusto mong magpatawad, magpapatawad ka no matter what. Magbago man sya o hindi papatawarin mo sya. Thank you for this! ❤️

    I am a rape victim as well, I was only 4 and 5 years old. I will never forget the trauma and fear I was going through. When you are told by your abuser not to tell anyone or else he is going to kill you, your whole body will be shaking, you feel frightened all the time. I was withdrawn, I was 9 years old and I still wet my bed, I learned later in life that bedwetting at that age is a sign that a child was molested. I remember vividly when I was at school I was always nervous, angry about little things. I wasn't friendly at all. I was carrying bitterness in my heart for many many years. I never told anyone what had happened to me. My parents split up when my siblings and I were very young which added injury to the trauma. Not until... I learned that there is God who can heal, restore and forgive. He allowed me to understand who He is and what His Son Jesus Christ had done for me. He washed me, He restored the broken spirit that I was able to let go of the past abuse and forgive the one who assaulted me. I was also able to tell my husband everything about my childhood and he was gracious to say that" no matter what I was going through that he'll give his unconditional love and support to help me healed completely. Thank you, God, for your amazing grace, and thank you that you chose me to be your daughter.

If they choose to act in loving ways then you would just see it as a bonus. But not as something you are dependent on to have peace, to have joy."-Joy Mendoza

      Different pastors explained that to forgive means to not seek revenge; and to seek justice or bring someone to justice does not mean that you failed to forgive. In fact, the Bible commands justice -- to bring someone to justice does not contradict God's Word that "vengeance" is His. God judges the heart -- when you bring someone to justice, what's your motivation? It's important to study the Bible in order to stay close to God and be able to spot true teachings and teachers. 1John 4:1 "Dear friends, do not believe every spirit, but test the spirits to see whether they are from God, because many false prophets have gone out into the world."

Not everyone can forgive the way she did. I, for sure will not be able to do that. But, to just know that someone like her was able to do so is just... amazing! Its very brave! It made me see forgiveness in a whole different way. I hope you continue to inspire people esp Women, Miss Joy. How you overcame this challenge in your life is unbelievable! God bless you more!

      Hi.. You know what? It's true that it's hard to forgive. Because we need to have deep relationship with God in order to do such an amazing thing. Inner healing needs strong spiritual life in order to do that. And God is the one who will do it for us. We just need to allow Him because It is a process where in we need guidance from Him to take control over everything. And when we allow the Holy Spirit to help us, He will do it 360 degrees.

    This is really a powerful message not only to women who went through a tragedy but to everyone who has bitterness in their hearts. It's true that when you keep it to yourself, you're already the one who's victimizing yourself the second time and this bitterness will show even in small situations. My name has a "Joy" on it but I never really feel like using it but seeing Joy and knowing her story makes me see that she is indeed a Joyful person.
    Toni is really a good listener, you would always see that whenever she interviews someone, it feels like she's also literally seeing situation, empathy is there, she is rational and almost knows what her interviewee would say.

    I’m also a victim of rape when I was a kid. I grew up thinking my life will be falling apart and became miserable. I was diagnosed having an HIV when I was just turning 21 years old. I had steven johnson syndrome after taking my treatment. I thought that was the end of my life. Life is a life long journey until such time I found Jesus in my life who saved me from these all brokenness. God who forgives and provides me grace to accept the fact that I am also a sinner. God allows me to experience all these things to see how faithful He is over my life. I have surrendered my life to Jesus and now continue serving His purpose - to glorify Him, to worship Him and to tell the world how faithful He is as always. 🌻

Like her I didn't filed a case I leave it to God and that man received his punishment after 8 months. I didn't prayed for it kc ayaw ko mag dasal ng masama like sana magdusa yung gumawa saken non. It's true when you forgive you find peace through God's mercy and grace. I'm glad Joy find her husband who respect her and accepted her past she is blessed to have him.

      Because victims tend to go for abusers. Abusers are usually good with words and manipulation. If the abused women don’t have a relationship with the Lord like she does, they would end up getting victimized over and over again. That’s why everyone needs to have a deep relationship with the Lord Jesus Christ so they can heal from their past, move forward, and learn to discern the Godly people that they need in their lives. Only Jesus can help them know who the wrong people are. God bless you, sis!

    I cried so hard in this video sobra. This is the best episode of Toni Talks for me. Akala ko noon pinapahirapan lang ako ni Lord when all those bad things happened to me, like when i lost my babies(twin) due to miscarriage and when i went through a big family problem. I was so angry and napuno ng sakit at galit ang puso ko na di ko magawang magpatawad. Hearing those things about "Forgiveness and Peace" from Joy Mendoza i felt God in my heart and this is a reminder for me that everything that i am going through right now has a good purpose. I learned that Forgiveness is a choice and also a gift for myself, to break free from being inprison of anger. Ito siguro kasagutan sa hinihiling ko na peace of mind from the Lord.
    Praises be to God. May the Lord continue to use Toni and Joy as an instrument to bless others like me. ❤🙏

    I could relate to Joy's older brother who cried because he couldn't protect his younger sister. My younger brother was robbed & stabbed and I wasn't there to protect him like I always did ever since he was young. He would always call me, magsusumbong pag may nangaaway sa kanya or nambbully sa kanya. Doesn't matter kung mas malaki sakin or lalake ung nang api sa kapatid ko, aawayin ko talaga. Hindi ako titigil hangga't di ako makaganti kahit papano for my brother. So when he died, I was so affected. Sama talaga ng loob ko. At one point I even blamed myself. I also blamed my parents for sending him to that school where he went to sabi ko sa kanila delikado dun pero walang choice kase wala kaming pera that time eh. My brother got a scholarship there eh. Pero praise God for his goodness & faithfulness. All things work together for good talaga. He healed our family after the tragedies that happened to us. Praise God parin!

    This video changed my life. Sabi ko sa sarili ko, ‘I want to feel yung ganung klaseng pagbibigay ng forgiveness towards my husband and the people around me’. I even find right groups to fill in that empty space para makapag forgive ako ng same as with this person. Then God gave me a door for a Christian Life Program with my husband. Along the steps of the program until we finished it and became a member of Couples for Christ… sobrang nabago buhay namin as a couple and we forgive both of our mistakes. Sabi ng ba mahirap daw ibalik ang tiwala, and yet naibalik ko siya. Napakalaking kaluwagan sa pakiramdam. I am still learning as an individual and we as a couple, but we are glad that we are both learning thru God. And this video, pops out on my feed on its most perfect time. Thanks for this video.

      I kinda know how you feel. 4 years ago, before I heard her story, I thought I knew God since I was born into a religion. when I heard her story I was really confused kasi bakit parang hindi ko kilala ung God niya. Hindi ba iisa lang ung God natin kahit iba iba ang religion? Bakit yung God niya, parang napaka personal, ung God niya allowed the bad thing to happen and then turned it into something great? By God's grace, after many years, I now KNOW the God who she is talking about! The great Lord who restores who redeems, who is sovereign! My Lord who LOVES me. Napakagandang journey to be in a relationship with a very personal and loving God. Thanks to her testimony.

      @@graciebaguing3093 Yes it's not the religion that save us it is our relationship with God that we must be born again in Spirit and in truth like in John 3:3 to 7 na, "Jesus answered and said unto him, Verily, verily, I say unto thee, Except a man be born again, he cannot see the kingdom of God.
      4 Nicodemus saith unto him, How can a man be born when he is old? can he enter the second time into his mother's womb, and be born?
      5 Jesus answered, Verily, verily, I say unto thee, Except a man be born of water and of the Spirit, he cannot enter into the kingdom of God.
      6 That which is born of the flesh is flesh; and that which is born of the Spirit is spirit.
      7 Marvel not that I said unto thee, Ye must be born again.
      Na sabi po jaan kung ang isang tao hindi maipanganak muli sa Espiritu at katotohanan ay hindi sya makakapasok sa kaharian ng Diyos. Kaya ang born again, Christian sabi ng karamihan it is religion yun yung paniniwala po natin nuon pero it is our encounter to Jesus that we must be born again in Spirit and in truth. Dahil nung nagkasala ang tao sina Eve and Adan nawala yung relasyon natin saating Diyos at namana natin yung kasalanan dahil sa pagkain ni Eve at ni Adan ng bungang ipinagbabawal ng ating Diyos. Kaya para ang relasyon na maikabit muli parang sa communication process kung walang channel na nagsisilbing koneksyon sa receiver sa sender malabo yung nasasagap na impormasyon. Ganon rin sa ating Diyos kailangan tayong maipanganak muli in Spirit in truth that we must be baptized in water and be baptized in the Holy Spirit. At ang Christian sa born again, Christian ay ito lang ay pagkakatawag sa mga tagasunod ni Kristo noon na unang tinawag sa Antioquia sa panahon ni Apostol Pablo (na Saulo ang ngalan dati na dating umuusig kay Kristo)at Apostol Bernabe dahil marami na ang nakakakilala at nababahagian ng mabuting balita ang Biblia. In Acts o Gawa sa tagalog chapter 11: 25 to 26 na sabi duon, "25Nagpunta si Bernabe sa Tarso upang hanapin si Saulo(na Apostol Pablo na ang bagong ngalan)26at nang kanyang matagpuan ay isinama niya ito sa Antioquia. Isang taon silang nanatili roon na kasa-kasama ng iglesya, at nagtuturo sa maraming tao. Doon sa Antioquia unang tinawag na Cristiano ang mga tagasunod ni Jesus.
      Kaya kahit anong sekta pa dati ang ating kinagisnan o mga relihiyon dahil ang tao lang naman ang gumawa ng mga relihiyon kaya marami ngayon kung pagmamasdan natin dahil nga binulag tayo ng mga ilan sa kinagisnan nating sekta. Na hindi maikakaila dahil na sa Bible din naman iyon na may mga huwad na guro sa 2 Pedro 2:1 sabi duon, "Noong una, may mga huwad na propetang lumitaw sa Israel. Gayundin naman, may darating sa gitna ninyo na mga huwad na guro. Lihim silang magtuturo ng mga maling aral na ang dulot ay kapahamakan. Pati ang Panginoong tumubos sa kanila ay kanilang itatakwil, kaya't di magtatagal at sila'y mapapahamak.
      Kaya kung tutuusin mapagmamasdan natin na bakit relihiyoso naman sila pero bakit ganon yung pamumuhay nila. May ganyang katanungan saating kaisipan diba. Kasi nga relihiyon ang isa din nagbibigay dahilan upang maging mailap ang tao sa Diyos dahil nabulag na nga sa mga katuruang gawa ng tao.
      Hindi pa huli ang lahat nawa'y hayaan nating mas makilala natin nang lubusan ang Diyos na huwag nating isarado ang ating puso at isip sa kanya. Dahil apart from Him we can do nothing kaya tayo napapahamak at nabibigyan ng gulo saating isipan sa dami nating katanungan. Testify ko nalang sarili ko dati akong may identity crisis nuon pero nang hinayaan kong makilala ko ang Panginoon, ako'y binago niya dahil sa sarili nating lakas wala tayong magagawa katulad nalang sa mga kaugaliang new years resolution ng mga tao na hindi na magiging ganto, hindi na ko babalik sa dating ako. Kaya kafaithtid hindi pa huli ang lahat nawa'y hayaan mong makilala mo nang lubusan si Kristo nang hindi lamang kilala sya sa kung sino sya kundi ano pa yung kaya niyang gawin sa buhay ng bawat-isa. Sa Diyos ang papuri, magpakailanman. Amen😊

    This is such an eye opener for people who’s been struggling to forgive someone. I myself took 15 years to forgive my parents who abandoned me at 8 years old. Our family reunion happened during my father’s funeral and that’s the only time we’ve met after almost 2 decades. Looking back, it was a painful reconciliation but I made a Decision to let go of my grudge so I can continue pursuing my dreams without a baggage. Now that I am already an engineer, most of the people who knew my childhood journey are questioning why I am supporting my mom and her new family, they’d say “They never helped you in your success”. The only reason I could think of is because I have forgiven them even before they asked for it. What an awesome God! He took my heart and made it new.

    "Forgiveness is a choice"
    I remember years ago when I decided to forgive the people who killed my father. I remember doing it in a prayer then decide to surrender the justice my family deserves. I decided to forgive them because I wanted to have peace. To be free. To be happy.
    I was only 12 when this happened I got my peace 8 years after my father died. 2017 we finally got the justice my family deserve.
    I'm a living example that forgiveness is a choice. And I hope that if whoever's reading this will have the courage to forgive the people who gave so much pain in your life. It may take a while, but it will be worth it. 💕
