This wk have been sharing of testimony upon testimony!!! As I have mention to my SOT classmates that now my tuition lessons is no more juz normal class but also a time of sharing with my students abt my faith. Since water baptism, some of my classes have been asking me abt Christianity and what is it all abt. As I begin to share, I felt the grace of God thru me as I tell the class my experience and how I felt, even though my Christian walk with God is not totally smooth yet His presence is always there for me.

I share with my Sec 1 & 2 maths classes, it was a wonderful exchange of pointers. Den this sharing also not juz for the yet to be believers but also with my CG members when they heard my stories, they felt encourage too!!!
I think God is really looking into the hearts of those who is seeking Him, the more u seek, the more His presence is poured out into our lives. In the Bible, the words says in Mt 6:33 "Seek first the kingdom of God and His righteousness, and all these things will be added unto you." This word is really living out of me. There is alot of times where I really dun feel the presence of God and on the verge of giving up. Understand that I have been Christian for 10 years, I still have my downturn at times. But the most miraculous thing is that everytime I felt that, God will always provide a solution and turn my life ard towards Him. It is like a shepherd leading those stray lamb back to the herd. God will nva leave u alone, when you are out of track, He will always lead you back to track. That is the most amazing thing. For me, it is undeniable to say that God is not there. U may feel He is not there is becuz u let the circumstances take control, but when you lift up urself to another level, I can guarantee u that the presence of God is always there, you juz need to seek it and you will find it. So nva lose hope but always have hope in God, for He nva fails, though we (human) fails lots of times.
I always feel that every Christian have their own life's story to tell, and their story will always be an impact to others and u nva know that it can be an influence. Have you ever had a problem that seemed so impossible you couldn't think about anything else? That's our human tendency, but God has a better plan. He wants us to glance at the problem, then quickly focus on His promises. That's what Abraham did when God told him that he and Sarah were to have a son. Romans 4:18 says that Abraham against hope believed in hope, that he might become the father of many nations, according to that which was spoken, So shall thy seed be.
This verse speaks of both the problem and the promise. It speaks of hope in the middle of a situation that looked hopeless. Even though Abraham was 100 years old and his wife was 90, Abraham had hope and faith that they would have a son as God promised.
There are two impossibilities here. First, it is humanly impossible for a man and a woman of Abraham and Sarah's ages to have a baby; second, it is impossible for God to lie (Titus 1:2). So against human hope, Abraham believed in divine hope...that God would bring about a miracle. He did not deny the problem existed-he just refused to focus on it. He glanced at the problem, then immediately focused on the promise God had made to him. And because Abraham had the faith to focus on the promise, God was able to perform the miracle.
Faith is rooted in the promises of God, and without a promise to stand on, it is literally impossible to have faith. So if you have a problem that seems hopeless, admit that your problem exists. Then immediately take your eyes off your problem and focus your faith on what God's Word says. You can believe it because the Bible says He cannot lie.
To conclude: Faith is really the substance that propel you to stand in God even though the circumstances, cuz in the end, the reward you receive after you overcome the trials and tribulations is so much better that what you go thru. Always share your testimony!!! In the midst of all the trouble and difficulties nva forget to pray, cuz prayer lifted u up and gives you the supernatural strengths. You can simply start with a small prayer, as you learnt to depend more on God, you will be able to pray longer. Tt is how simple to build your prayer life, cuz it is not instantaneously. Always start from small and it will end up Big.
