One day, I got to know my then girlfriend who is now my wife. She made me understand the meaning of Christ and slowly brought me to church again. Even after marriage, she continued to pray for me and believed that I could be saved. She slowly encouraged me to accept Christ. I was hesitant at first but accepted Christ as my Saviour and Lord in 2008. I recognise that I am a sinner. But “God so loved the world that He gave His one and only Son, that whoever believes in Him shall not perish but have eternal life. For God did not send His Son into the world to condemn the world, but to save the world through Him”( John 3 16-17). I need Jesus to atone for my sins (Rom 5:11) and to mediate between God and me ( 1 Tim 2:5 ).
Since then, the Lord has been my shepherd. He provides, gives me strength, and mould me to be a better person. One instance was when we were shifting house. We needed to find a place to stay after selling our house in Choa Chu Kang while waiting for the renovation on the new house to be completed. My wife and I prayed over this matter and the Lord sent Brother Bah Chek and Sister Lee Wah. They offered their place to us during that period until everything had been settled. We are grateful to them and the Lord for answering our prayers. Now I am a happy father of four and am attending church and Bible class regularly.
I am not perfect. I still sin because we are humans. But by trusting in Jesus and His abundant grace, I am made whole and have my sins all washed away. Every trial that he makes us go through is to teach us to be a better person and to glorify his name when you see the miracles that he does in your life. Everything he does will always turn out to be sweet in the end. Put your trust in him. Everything belongs to him. He will do great things. Let Christ be the centre of your Life. I am proud to say that Christ is the centre of my life.
