I think what should be acknowledged is that such situations are complex and are not black and white like we like to think. She had an entire existence in the world she was thrust in and in those years there was the bad but still moments of joy and good. Listening to others who have gone through similar experiences you see that they cannot completely deny the bond that was created against the backdrop of having been kidnapped. This is her story.... this is how she has made it through, has been able to heal and forgive and move on. We cannot tell her how to be or deal with a life we have never lived. This is her life and her story. I am just glad that despite the pain and suffering she is not a victim but a woman who is now thriving and living out her purpose.
@@NancyBsAdventureDiary In this Life we learn that at times it's in the injustice that stories are made. It's where visions are born. Listening to Joyce, am inspired. Her calmness during the interview, is commendable. In the end, Joyce owned her story and she turned out to be a great person. More love to her.
Remember Joyce is the victim in all this. She is the one who went through what she went through. The way she chooses to move ahead with her life is her business. She has decided to embrace all sides of her identity, the good, the bad, the ugly, and yes the names. Stop putting more labels on an already kidnapped, raped, isolated, innocent 5 y/o Joyce who had no role in what became of her life. Some insensitive comments are just whack, she has chosen to live life without regrets. This is not a sob story, its a story of hope and strength. Stop this nonsense of victimizing the victim. Thank you Joyce for telling your story.
No, she's not the only victim here, there's the mother who lost a child, imagine how that was for her and still is, the siblings and everyone else, this is a lifelong trauma to everyone concerned.
@@TKKMI-f4s Listen to yourself, when an accident happens to a person, who carries the burden of broken ribs🤷Yes, the family will have to take care of the accident victim, but whose life is completely altered, it's the person who was injured. Joyce is the victim, stop blaming her for the way she chose to tell her story, nobody from her family has a problem with what she is saying, the perpetrators faced their karma, so let her be, this is what healing looks like.
This gal Lyn she is a strong woman may Allah bless her abundant may she never luck may her story change many lives Nd bless many pple Nd also we may learn on hw to forgive.thanks lnn show
My spiritual mentor has said time and again that sometimes God will not answer your prayers because you’re better off the way you are. This woman stole this child because she was barren and still didn’t love her! God knew she was incapable of loving any child.
This is a lady who is in this world but not of this world. She has transcended form, she's in spirit and in spirit, there's no blame. There's only the powe of now. That's what Joyce has embraced
Joyce, please stop justifying what that woman did. Being barren/infertile does not give the anyone the right to commit the crime of kidnapping another woman’s child, to raise as their own. I am poor, but I cannot go steal someone’s money or anything else. Criminality has no excuse.
This is so touching, I was taken a way from my family and was brained washed to hate my mother, and they said my mother was the worst person, but i knew she wasn't more accusations on her till i got my freedom in 2016.
You'd think 🤨those creatures would treat her well 🤨 because they didn't have children of their own. But NOOOOO they gave her a horrific experience.SHAME ON THEM 🤨This is veryy disturbing
Sis, I refuse your rational of an adult's behaviour towards a child as 'her own frustrations' . No. You were a child with no other experience. She created this exeprience for you. She was an adult. She knew better. You have to one day realise that part.
That’s her coping mechanism and what brought her healing. So let her choose not to be bitter about the whole situation. God can change our way of thinking and gives us a spirit of peace and calmness for the remainder of our lives. To God be the glory 🙏🙏
@@angelique6887 There is no problem. Infact she has been very strong to come out of the fire unscathed or not so broken so to speak. But one must not deceive themselves about the truth otherwise the healing will not be complete because the truth sets free. You have to objectively look at a thing and call the thing a thing. If anything, it will bring total liberty.
What would you like her to call it? She said it right, "the other woman had her own frustrations". This is her story she has not told anyone to see their abductor like that. It's her story. She has taken her life as it is. Good and bad.
Am angry that even after shes grown she still made excuses for that lady .I can only imagine the pain the real mother went thro and to think she passed away bf she reunited with her .😮
True no one has the right to kidnap. In life too it's not what happens to you, its how you react to what happens to you. Joyce has transcended blame, victim mentality, she's focused on divinity perfection. A realm that very few ever reach.
Joyce has challenged us in forgiveness....She will call the woman mum if she was alive despite vita yenye alikula from her...Most of us here are struggling with childhood traumas which we can't talk about.... Today we heal because of this girl.....God of Joyce continue blessing this gal for us, We need her in our lives ❤❤❤
Here is the comment i was looking for. That childhood trauma can be something else. I really struggle with it myself, sometimes I'm okay, sometimes i feel a wave of hatred. If she could really forgive that then who am I and my identity was not even stolen or raped like she was. God help us.
People who go through this kind of traumas end up being so forgiving and easy going because it became part of them when they were going through the journey .....God is always on their side ❤❤
Am watching this lady live from Isreal. Thank you Joyce for forgiving this lady that stole you. I also went through the same she went through for 15yrs. But i thank God, that i got my own children when everyone was talking about me. My dear its better you don't get money on this world but get children. I almost adapted one but God did it for me. I can understand what that lady was going through. Thank you Lynn for hosting Joyce. And God bless you more Joyce
Congratulations Joyce! God is forever good and faithful, may He continue to show Himself strong on your behalf! Glory to the name of Jesus Christ our Lord and savior 🙏🏽!
I’m so proud of you Joyce for keeping the faith and choosing to do great things in your life cause most people would have chosen the dark path❤God loves you so much and I hope you will never forget that
From South Africa. Joyce!!; I watched your story, I am gobsmacked. Indeed WHAT GOD CANNOT DO,DOES NOT EXIST!!! I just finished doing my evening devotion,I thanked God to watch LNN show. You make me to believe more to God than before.
I am in tears 😢 😭 especially the part where her real Mun had died before she was able to meet with her.whoever steals someone identity is cursed and will never find any peace. 🤬. May you find total healing 🙏 in Jesus' name.

Joyce of full of light. She's so sweet and positive, and not an ounce of bitterness exists in her bones. She sees the bigger picture inspite of what she has gone through. Her story inspires healing and restoration to those who have been through a similar path. Forgiveness is for you is my takeaway.
Where did this one come from!!!I have met the most calm inspiring person ever . The way she has managed to deal with it it the most rational way is so out of this world.The way she manages to appreciate the little good that she experienced over years..is out of this world! Joyce I honour you gal...You've taught me Forgiveness from a different angle!. Respect gal!...The Grandparents,in chepalungu..respect!!...the uncle in Eldoret. Respect !. Respect to the husband..And let's honour the Mum and dad who gave birth to this great soul ..Joyce!To the mum in heaven ..You dota is safe ..rest easy!
Joyce story is such a great encouragement, she reminds me of Joyce Meyer. She turned her story into a life of Ministry. She is now a great teacher in matters of faith.
This is like a lifetime movie that I watched last week it was about a daughter who was stolen by a family friend who couldn't conceive and here Joyce is telling exactly same story ....... I fear trusting people sometimes but who is God 🙏 you we're able to reunite back again with your family......am sure your mom is watching you in heaven ❤
I will honestly say,this lady is an angel on earth Even us Christians cannot do some of the things she is doing. May all blessings and favor follow her all the days of her life. Umeniencourage sana,ni sad but vile umeamua kuiweka ni beyond explanation, you're full of Grace
If strong was a person,its you my dear siz...as a family we thank God for keeping you safe untill we met...many thanks to Man Nyari,Nungari and the team for uniting us🙏
Wueh 😳 Who would have thought! I’m here, your official witness to Joyce Chepngeno’s life story. We were just village kids in Kipsirat-running around, playing, learning like little rascals, and getting into all the regular mischief. I mean, back then, who knew what was happening beneath the surface? I had no clue! I was right there, oblivious, while this strong, bright girl was quietly fighting battles no child should face. Looking back, I feel a mix of guilt and awe. Our village, for all its charm, missed the chance to protect and uplift one of its best. But here’s what amazes me: Joyce took that storm and turned it into sunshine! She’s inspiring people worldwide, giving hope to those who need it most. Joyce, I can already see it-big things are on your horizon! Cheers to the future, my friend.
I wish after stealing you she had given you a good life and protected you from sexual abuse.God bless you.May you continue to thrive. You’re a good person.
And here I am not able to forgive my friend who took my shoes without my consent in the morning and will bring them back in the evening🤦🏽♀️I need the GOD OF JOYCE in my life…thank you Joyce thank you Lyn so much inspiration ❤
When she was on Kameme (Njanjo) 4 years ago, she narrated her story in Swahili, and I noticed the same manner of story telling that I notice here. Maybe it has nothing to do with language, and it’s just the way she speaks. It’s a painful story to tell, hence the hesitation……. Idk.
Imagine why would a grown up man who has hands and is not disabled. Have his primary school child cleaning his house and cooking for him. N the society doesn't see anything wrong with that. Our African society is just cursed
You are awesome Joyce! You’ve inspired me to forgive because I’m presently hurting; but after listening to your encouragements to forgive, I’m asking for grace to also forgive. Thank you Joyce. You’re indeed a blessing, God bless you. From Nigeria
I Got goosebumps the time you narrated how you met your family and your sisters reaction when she watched you the 1st time and knew that was you .............
Hi Lynn even my big sister child was stolen at the age of 4 years old in mlolongo 4yrs ago see this gives us hope now my sister is mentally she is not okay 😢we still have hope and faith Fidel will come one day
Every mother's worst nightmare, your child vanishing without a trace. There is no closure, not knowing where your child is or whether they are alive has to be the worst thing to happen to any parent!
Listening to Joyce all through am so impressed and i was so sure she must have done somw renewing... Until she mentioned Alabastron and i knew .... Thats it. Alabastron is just God sent program. Every woman should try it. Were it not for Alabastron i would be in Mathare or on the streets collecting mapapers.
She was abductedat 5yrs, she new her home in Nakuru She now finished class eight,she still remembers her home, why isn't she going back to her parents in Nakuru?? Did they like sell her to this lady,the parents knew whoever went with her, why aren't they reporting this barren lady who ran away with her??
True that. Unfortunately she died before her crime came to light, so she got away with it in this life, but maybe she payed for it in death. I wish more people would see this as a crime.
My favorite moment in this interview was at 1:46. Thank you Lynn for asking that question. I also don’t understand why she’d keep the name her kidnapper gave her. I am really disappointed by her choice to continue identifying with her kidnappers and abusers. I give up.
@@carolineg101 Many people have changed their names even after graduating from college. I don’t care what it’d take, I’d not continue using the name of a woman who stole me from my mom. No way. 😢
That would be your choice and this is her choice.I can assure you that if God hadn't protected her brain in this way,you wouldn't be seeing her here.She would be a complete bitter mess.
@@nualisplaceForgiveness does not mean continuing to embrace those who wronged you, stole you, abused you……. You can forgive and still hold them accountable.
This is one of the most amazing stories,there is no words that I can describe her , this lady is extraordinary in her story she takes all the good from a bad situation and she gives thanks I love her
I lost my brother in sept 1996...Nothing compares to the pain of not knowing the fate of your loved one.mothers never move on...This is a story of hope...may we never give up.Thank you Lynn.
I have been saying the same thing. There's no strand of bitterness in Joyce and you hear people telling her to get counseling which she already did. People want others to hold onto trauma yet if they go back there mentally, it will destroy them. I love the way she has embraced life by reconciling with her past.
The thief died long time. The hero of the story is the relative who took her to school, her husband and mother in law who helped her reconnect with her birth family.
I need this forgiveness grace of joyce. What my mother went through because of giving birth to only girls in a boys valued society is undescribable, My grandmother being top most champion on it. One day i will tell our story
I now understand what “Stockholm Syndrome” is. It is real, and it’s sad. It is the sad reality of child kidnappings. They bond with their kidnappers and they can never break free. They are forever victims, they just don’t know it. 😢🤨
@@trendinggossip8692 I think she has not gone through the right therapy to help her process what happened. Instead of seeing the crimes committed het, she is seeing everything as “God’s purpose,” 😏
This lady has a sweet spirit… you will go far girl, Thank you for keeping ties with those who supported you. God fought your enemies especially the raper… Unfortunately your mum never gets to see you… but her soul RIP after reunion. 👍
Ngai FaFa! Ukistaajabu ya Musa utaona ya Firaoni. Ati kii?? I am peeling this story like an onion and just cannot fathom its entirety. Your level of forgiveness is 💯. Congrats 🎉 🎊! I wish you well. Lynn continue being you.
Team Joseph here we were sold out , forgotten, rejected yet loved by the most high Comforted and our lives were totally transformed,the only thing we do is forgive them,for they didn't know what they were doing.we are collecting the blessings and bouncing like nothing happened to us .one day and I say one day I will tell my story.
Joyce’s is a true definition of rebuilding and restoration she’s such a strong 💪 and brave lady. I thought maybe they treated her like their own kid but people are inhuman.
I'm totally speechless...these are those mysteries of God that we hear about coz there's no way she's this composed after all that story. It can only be God. I hope her mother is happy in heaven now. This is one of the biggest stories that really makes me see what Lynn's purpose is and that it is a God given purpose.
If freedom from your pain had a face!!! For those who do not understand how she can accept forgive and move on, please let go because she has. Don't try and chain her to her past. She is free. Thank you Lord!
Joyce you look sooo young am surprised you are already a mum of 2. You are a good motivational speaker and you can save lives by encouraging thise who think they cant see the light on the end of the tunnel .
I can't help 😢...a teacher aka a dad from hell.We should empower children to speak out despite threats from perpetrators.Let us also be on the lookout, the people who abuse children are mostly around them. Truly, we are wounded for the healing of others.Thankyou Joyce for sharing
Her husband is doing a perfect job. Letw not forget this. Joyce atitude ,strenght and hope draws from this man. May God keep them together forever. I bless you.
They meant to harm you but God meant it for good. I like the fact that you concentrated with positivity and not negativity. You are a true woman of God reflecting the light of our saviour Jesus Christ. May our story continual crashing the head of the serpent ( devil).
This girl is soooo beautiful and amazing, with a golden heart. praise God for carrying her through it all and now using it as a ministry to other stricken souls. God bless her and keep her and her wonderful husband and family.
Someone pls tag Man Nyari. He had aired this Angelic Girl on his program and she reunited with her biological family. All glory to God for all He's doing in the life of Joyce. We love you so much Joyce and may God open greater doors for you and your family.
I've watched this with tears at the same time laughing, Joyce has a free spirit no wonder she forgave the perpetrators, I'm happy she reconnect with her biological family👏👏❤❤
Wow Joyce. I get it when you spoke about what Joseph went through to get to his destiny. Your story is very inspirational. I shed tears especially when you said you hoped to reunite with your only to learn that she no more. God bless you and yes let us remain humble always even if God is taking us to higher levels.
God does not endorse evil but He definitely can turn around what the devil intended for evil for our good. We can prosper without pain but God can turn pain to gain 🙌🏾
I think what should be acknowledged is that such situations are complex and are not black and white like we like to think. She had an entire existence in the world she was thrust in and in those years there was the bad but still moments of joy and good. Listening to others who have gone through similar experiences you see that they cannot completely deny the bond that was created against the backdrop of having been kidnapped. This is her story.... this is how she has made it through, has been able to heal and forgive and move on. We cannot tell her how to be or deal with a life we have never lived. This is her life and her story. I am just glad that despite the pain and suffering she is not a victim but a woman who is now thriving and living out her purpose.
This right here🙏🙏
I agree and thank God for healing her and giving a resilient spirit.
Love that tooo
Joyce even lost her accent and has the accent of the people who stole her. What injustice!

The head teacher who helped you Joyce is my dad, he watched your story and he is very proud of who you have become.
Wow! That's humbling. Your dad is so kind and fatherly to have taken upon him to help Joyce.
May God continually bless him.

The fact that she chooses to focus on the good instead of her suffering is Godly.
She is wise to choose freedom over imprisonment.
100000% supported!!
Exactly, but Her real Parents were reluctant to look for Her.
It appears that's the way to forgiving
This is a lady who is in this world but not of this world. She has transcended form, she's in spirit and in spirit, there's no blame. There's only the powe of now. That's what Joyce has embraced
I was going to say that Joyce is experiencing self transcendence. It is no longer about self but about purpose and service to others.
Joyce, please stop justifying what that woman did. Being barren/infertile does not give the anyone the right to commit the crime of kidnapping another woman’s child, to raise as their own. I am poor, but I cannot go steal someone’s money or anything else. Criminality has no excuse.
Its called power of forgiveness
Considering of what the biological mother passed through all that period
@@agnesnyambwa8309 The right term for it is Stockholm Syndrome.
Very true
Very true, because she had the option of legally adopting a child from a children’s home..
This is so touching, I was taken a way from my family and was brained washed to hate my mother, and they said my mother was the worst person, but i knew she wasn't more accusations on her till i got my freedom in 2016.

So sorry for what you had to go through

Thank you for calling them creatures……😂😂😂 We should NEVER embrace criminals. Creatures they are. 😡
The problem is that she's justifying their crimes😢
Probably the reason God hadn't blessed them with a child😢

@@angelique6887 There is no problem. Infact she has been very strong to come out of the fire unscathed or not so broken so to speak.

What would you like her to call it? She said it right, "the other woman had her own frustrations". This is her story she has not told anyone to see their abductor like that. It's her story. She has taken her life as it is. Good and bad.
Am angry that even after shes grown she still made excuses for that lady .I can only imagine the pain the real mother went thro and to think she passed away bf she reunited with her .😮
This one reminds me of my son who disappeared in 2008 from Likoni in Mombasa in his thirties.l believe he is a life .Amen

No1 has a right to kidnap or steal other person's child regardless of your personal issues..
True no one has the right to kidnap. In life too it's not what happens to you, its how you react to what happens to you. Joyce has transcended blame, victim mentality, she's focused on divinity perfection. A realm that very few ever reach.

Right? I felt the pain too. Possibly she died early from grieve.
😢😢😢saaad
It's really sad 😔 , it's been difficult 😢
I am in tears 😢 😭 especially the part where her

@Lynn Ngugi pin this. 📌
am l the only one feeling her pain,am shaking as am listening to her story.pole mama for the pain u went through
I can't imagine the pain her biological mother went through. Oh my God. This is an excellent example of God's mercy.
❤
Choice.... Joyce chose to turn her story into triumph and I pick grace, forgiveness and non judgement. Thank you for the show. God bless you Lynn
Where did this one come from!!!I have met the most calm inspiring person ever . The way she has managed to deal with it it the most rational way is so out of this world.The way she manages to appreciate the little good that she experienced over years..is out of this world!

Respect to the husband..And let's honour the Mum and dad who gave birth to this great soul ..Joyce!To the mum in heaven ..You dota is safe ..rest easy!
Joyce is a better person than me. I would have wanted to revenge but clearly God's grace has carried her throughout her journey
but the perpetrators are already dead.
She is a former workmate at kplc kenya. Such a great soul. She used to be a sweet gal back in kplc. She flew to Australia afew years back
Joyce story is such a great encouragement, she reminds me of Joyce Meyer. She turned her story into a life of Ministry. She is now a great teacher in matters of faith.
She speaks like she has healed....but I can't help but to think that "could she have numbed the pain?" Yiii mukama this world is cruel!
yeah the fact that she has the courage to share shows that she has healed but the memories are still fresh.
This is like a lifetime movie that I watched last week it was about a daughter who was stolen by a family friend who couldn't conceive and here Joyce is telling exactly same story ....... I fear trusting people sometimes but who is God 🙏 you we're able to reunite back again with your family......am sure your mom is watching you in heaven ❤
This video has taught me forgiveness.Oh God may this grace abound in my life
Her empathy is just on another note 📝. No wonder she is glowing ✨️ inside out ❤

Looking back, I feel a mix of guilt and awe. Our village, for all its charm, missed the chance to protect and uplift one of its best. But here’s what amazes me: Joyce took that storm and turned it into sunshine! She’s inspiring people worldwide, giving hope to those who need it most.
Joyce, I can already see it-big things are on your horizon! Cheers to the future, my friend.
I wish after stealing you she had given you a good life and protected you from sexual abuse.God bless you.May you continue to thrive. You’re a good person.
My exact thinking, she didn't fight enough for her...all those years yet she knew never showed up.
And here I am not able to forgive my friend who took my shoes without my consent in the morning and will bring them back in the evening🤦🏽♀️I need the GOD OF JOYCE in my life…thank you Joyce thank you Lyn so much inspiration ❤
😂😂😂😂
😂😂😂 TOKA hapa
A great lady she is.. I feel like if she narrated her story in kiswahili.. she would have expressed herself better..
Sina Lawyer.😢😢
When she was on Kameme (Njanjo) 4 years ago, she narrated her story in Swahili, and I noticed the same manner of story telling that I notice here. Maybe it has nothing to do with language, and it’s just the way she speaks. It’s a painful story to tell, hence the hesitation……. Idk.
but she speaks good english
Haki Kizungu ni ngumu..i have tried yawa!😂
😂😂 tafta lawyer coz wueeh..Kizungu si ni ngumu
It's on kameme FM in Swahili dia
My brother was stolen when he was six years old between 2004 and 2005,, still trusting God that we will see him again one day🥺🥺
Cyber hugs ❤May God prevail 🙏
😭😭😭
May God bring him back to you
May St. Anthony of Padua intervene
May St Antony of Padua restorer of what is lost interceed powerfully🙏🙏🙏
Imagine why would a grown up man who has hands and is not disabled. Have his primary school child cleaning his house and cooking for him. N the society doesn't see anything wrong with that. Our African society is just cursed
You are awesome Joyce!
You’ve inspired me to forgive because I’m presently hurting; but after listening to your encouragements to forgive, I’m asking for grace to also forgive. Thank you Joyce. You’re indeed a blessing, God bless you. From Nigeria
I hardly forgive,after watching this I have loosen my heart. Thank you for teaching us forgiveness.
I Got goosebumps the time you narrated how you met your family and your sisters reaction when she watched you the 1st time and knew that was you .............
Hi Lynn even my big sister child was stolen at the age of 4 years old in mlolongo 4yrs ago see this gives us hope now my sister is mentally she is not okay 😢we still have hope and faith Fidel will come one day
Every mother's worst nightmare, your child vanishing without a trace. There is no closure, not knowing where your child is or whether they are alive has to be the worst thing to happen to any parent!
Shame should not be disempowering. Am happy this lady has put in the work and healed. Healing is a journey be gracious to yourself
Listening to Joyce all through am so impressed and i was so sure she must have done somw renewing... Until she mentioned Alabastron and i knew .... Thats it.
Alabastron is just God sent program. Every woman should try it. Were it not for Alabastron i would be in Mathare or on the streets collecting mapapers.
why steal a child and not be able to protect her?that was soo unfair
She was abductedat 5yrs, she new her home in Nakuru She now finished class eight,she still remembers her home, why isn't she going back to her parents in Nakuru?? Did they like sell her to this lady,the parents knew whoever went with her, why aren't they reporting this barren lady who ran away with her??
Thay lady who kidnapped her committed a crime. That's the plain truth. A crime worth prosecution.
Unfortunately she is now dead
Truth!
@@jjkui4535
They are facing their case...down 👇 there...
True that. Unfortunately she died before her crime came to light, so she got away with it in this life, but maybe she payed for it in death. I wish more people would see this as a crime.
Unfortunately she passed away
I like the way Lynn keeps quiet and Listen giving the audience the Visitor talk and us to Listen.
My love for Lynn❤❤❤
Very
My favorite moment in this interview was at 1:46. Thank you Lynn for asking that question. I also don’t understand why she’d keep the name her kidnapper gave her. I am really disappointed by her choice to continue identifying with her kidnappers and abusers. I give up.
Remember she schooled with the names
@@carolineg101 Many people have changed their names even after graduating from college. I don’t care what it’d take, I’d not continue using the name of a woman who stole me from my mom. No way. 😢
That would be your choice and this is her choice.I can assure you that if God hadn't protected her brain in this way,you wouldn't be seeing her here.She would be a complete bitter mess.
@@nualisplaceForgiveness does not mean continuing to embrace those who wronged you, stole you, abused you……. You can forgive and still hold them accountable.
@@marynjau3439 Thank you, because I feel like I am crazy for feeling that this is so wrong.
She has a heart of gold, she is so blessed to have been loved by both families. Almighty God will continue to provide peace and comfort. Thank you!
This is one of the most amazing stories,there is no words that I can describe her , this lady is extraordinary in her story she takes all the good from a bad situation and she gives thanks I love her
I lost my brother in sept 1996...Nothing compares to the pain of not knowing the fate of your loved one.mothers never move on...This is a story of hope...may we never give up.Thank you Lynn.
This is what healed looks and sounds like. Go girl you have done the inner work. This is really admirable.
I have been saying the same thing. There's no strand of bitterness in Joyce and you hear people telling her to get counseling which she already did. People want others to hold onto trauma yet if they go back there mentally, it will destroy them. I love the way she has embraced life by reconciling with her past.
And she is not even shedding a tear, strong girl. May God keep you Joyce, you don't belong to this world, you are an angel
That is a criminal offense and the child thief should be in prison. Joyce you are strong and resilient. Happy you reconnected with your family.
The thief died long time. The hero of the story is the relative who took her to school, her husband and mother in law who helped her reconnect with her birth family.
lol, you clearly did not watch the story to the end or you didn't understand.
@@annekagiri4303 It was not the mother in law who helped her reconnect but a friend who took her to that kameme show
This lady is a gem. Kind hearted, forcussed, lovely and forgiving. No wonder favour has been going a head of her. All the best gal
I need this forgiveness grace of joyce. What my mother went through because of giving birth to only girls in a boys valued society is undescribable, My grandmother being top most champion on it. One day i will tell our story
We are many...
She is a happy girl. She is strong. Thank you Lnny
I now understand what “Stockholm Syndrome” is. It is real, and it’s sad. It is the sad reality of child kidnappings. They bond with their kidnappers and they can never break free. They are forever victims, they just don’t know it. 😢🤨
Exactly, this is a good example of stockholm syndrome
@@trendinggossip8692 I think she has not gone through the right therapy to help her process what happened. Instead of seeing the crimes committed het, she is seeing everything as “God’s purpose,” 😏
Oh so sad 😢😢
I was just thinking... yes she has had Stockholm syndrome all her life... Sad
She is just a woman who God is using to teach on forgiveness,we who have not gone through what she has gone through might and will never understand.
This girl is stronger than her story. I'm just in awe
Dear Joyce, your story clearly shows that no matter the evil God is able to transform lives and Africans are wonderful people
This lady has a sweet spirit… you will go far girl, Thank you for keeping ties with those who supported you. God fought your enemies especially the raper… Unfortunately your mum never gets to see you… but her soul RIP after reunion. 👍
Reminds me of the Indian Movie Lion, the boy got lost at 3 years old, gets adopted and moves to Australia and tracks his way back home 29 years later
Yes i remember that movie
It's based on a true story
Yes
That was one good movie. Brought me to tears.
Ngai FaFa! Ukistaajabu ya Musa utaona ya Firaoni. Ati kii?? I am peeling this story like an onion and just cannot fathom its entirety. Your level of forgiveness is 💯. Congrats 🎉 🎊! I wish you well. Lynn continue being you.
Am 38 and I have hope of being reconnected with my biological father. Thanx for sharing your story❤
Team Joseph here we were sold out , forgotten, rejected yet loved by the most high Comforted and our lives were totally transformed,the only thing we do is forgive them,for they didn't know what they were doing.we are collecting the blessings and bouncing like nothing happened to us .one day and I say one day I will tell my story.
Inshallah 🙏❤️.
Hugs too
True some of us whatever we have gone through its only God who knows
@@martharinebiseko1457 hugs too
@@janetjully so true I have gone through everything that I became immune and stopped talking about what I have gone through.
Joyce’s is a true definition of rebuilding and restoration she’s such a strong 💪 and brave lady. I thought maybe they treated her like their own kid but people are inhuman.
This friend of her mother who disappeared at the time the child disappeared should have been looked for at that time.The mothers friend was a criminal
I wish your biological family was also interviewed so that we can here their side too.
Yes. In a part 2. However they could still be in trauma.
True
Have just come across this sad story. This lady is still so traumatized that even expressing herself is a problem. It is so sad what she went through.
Who else hears Cynthia Nyamai as she talks!!
Same here...
True
Yes the soft gentle voice
True
True
I love this Joyce hungefika mahali umefika kama ungekaa Nakuru
This lady is so strong lynn...I really understand how God works in our lives through her . Her story relates alot to Joseph's story in the bible.
My name is Joyce am inspired by yr story. I also went through a lot in live ad now am in US, God of restoration 🙏
To God be the glory.
I'm totally speechless...these are those mysteries of God that we hear about coz there's no way she's this composed after all that story. It can only be God. I hope her mother is happy in heaven now. This is one of the biggest stories that really makes me see what Lynn's purpose is and that it is a God given purpose.
Joyce is such a darling. Known her for a short time but can't fail to notice her pure heart. So proud of you girl
WHAT GOD CANNOT DO DOESN'T EXIST 🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏
To God be the Glory 🙏🙏🙏
If freedom from your pain had a face!!! For those who do not understand how she can accept forgive and move on, please let go because she has. Don't try and chain her to her past. She is free. Thank you Lord!
This lady is such a gentle soul 💓💓 she made me really 😢 listening to her story.
She's such a God fearing woman.
Joyce you look sooo young am surprised you are already a mum of 2. You are a good motivational speaker and you can save lives by encouraging thise who think they cant see the light on the end of the tunnel .
This is the mother of all shows for 2024@ LNN
Am seeing the whole biblical promises in Joyce. May she enjoy her marriage as if nothing happened🙏🏿
This right here is the display of "taking your power back"!!! 🙏🙏🙏 May God be Praised!
I would love to hear her real parents point of view it must have been heart wrenching
I can't help 😢...a teacher aka a dad from hell.We should empower children to speak out despite threats from perpetrators.Let us also be on the lookout, the people who abuse children are mostly around them. Truly, we are wounded for the healing of others.Thankyou Joyce for sharing
Her husband is doing a perfect job. Letw not forget this. Joyce atitude ,strenght and hope draws from this man. May God keep them together forever. I bless you.
They meant to harm you but God meant it for good. I like the fact that you concentrated with positivity and not negativity. You are a true woman of God reflecting the light of our saviour Jesus Christ. May our story continual crashing the head of the serpent ( devil).
The way we take that Kameme show for granted ooh mai Lowd
Its high time people understand adoption is right
If they will rape the children then they should not adopt
This girl is soooo beautiful and amazing, with a golden heart. praise God for carrying her through it all and now using it as a ministry to other stricken souls. God bless her and keep her and her wonderful husband and family.
Someone pls tag Man Nyari. He had aired this Angelic Girl on his program and she reunited with her biological family. All glory to God for all He's doing in the life of Joyce. We love you so much Joyce and may God open greater doors for you and your family.
I've watched this with tears at the same time laughing, Joyce has a free spirit no wonder she forgave the perpetrators, I'm happy she reconnect with her biological family👏👏❤❤
Wow Joyce. I get it when you spoke about what Joseph went through to get to his destiny. Your story is very inspirational. I shed tears especially when you said you hoped to reunite with your only to learn that she no more. God bless you and yes let us remain humble always even if God is taking us to higher levels.
Joyce Chepng'eno is a gem, sorry for what you underwent. Your beautiful soul will always guarantee you happiness. Be blessed.
Lynn, sio kujikuna masikio, ni kujichuna masikio.
God does not endorse evil but He definitely can turn around what the devil intended for evil for our good. We can prosper without pain but God can turn pain to gain 🙌🏾
This is a good example of Grace beyond human understanding,this is why most of us can't fathom out her strength.Thank you so much for this 🙏
