Purpose Driven + My Life Testimony.
Many times, we really have to ask ourselves to reflect whether we are purpose driven..... A journey set ahead of me reveals how my purposes were set and my testimony as a kid till being an adult and how to impact people ard you.....
Are you ready for a purpose driven journey?? Are you set to go??
I'm sure you wld love to have one..... a journey full of purpose, so that you wun feel out of place again, so that you wun feel bad abt life ever again.
I was never exposed to christianity until the age of 10. I'm pretty glad and amazed at how God protected me and led me into His home, His kingdom.
He was really like a Father to the fatherless.
He led me out from my wrongs and sins..... I was 'baby-sitted' at that time when my dad wasn't ard, he was in a faraway place which my mum always tell me. I visited my dad every week in a place where he didn't deserve to be in, in a place with juz 4 walls, in a place where no chances were given. In due of that, I became 'fatherless'. By now, you shld know tat place already. yeah, it's the prison, jail, etc..... I was never ashamed abt my family background or status.
I was accepted by my primary school friends (neighborhood sch). They didn't reject me and I'm glad till now..... It was in my 'baby-sitting' period, at a christian family's place, tat I started knowing the Lord through my disgraceful act..... as u know kids like toys like lego, etc..... i began to 'take' or rather 'steal' in this context, the pieces of lego..... it went on for a few weeks..... i can't remember everything but i can remember tat i was caught, asked and threatened, i was scared. I was threatened to be brought to the police if I dun tell the truth, etc..... i was a quiet kid then, a kid wif no agenda, no purpose, no life, full of anger and emotions deep within coz my father wasn't wif me.....
I admitted it, confessed it and tat's how my life began..... they brought me to church one day and i enjoyed the company of new faces, people..... though shy..... remember, i was really a quiet guy till age of 16..... week after week, i've learnt abt the Lord, etc. In my heart, i've given up my authority over my life and given it up to Jesus..... I cannot really remember the actual date of my conversion. but i know it's between the age of 10 to 12.
That's how I knew the Lord. I left my first church coz they were strangers to me even i see them week after week, etc..... i dun feel belonged. I came to serve at St Hilda's Church when I was 15 and trained as a leader at tat time and was baptised on Christmas tat year, 25th December 1996. I was reborn again and things started to happen, change, etc.
There was a lot of relationships going on when I was 16 & beyond which I wun mention for now..... till I came to another church, got kicked out coz of some relationship matters and came to COOS (Church Of Our Saviour). I shared my experience in regards to my previous church and the reason I was kicked out from tat church (which I wun mention the name of the church) with my NS cell members tat time when I was still in tat cell.
Purpose Driven??
I came to Republic Polytechnic (RP) with only one agenda full of passion. I could have gone to other polytechnics and get great results and recognition but..... I knew God has a purpose in my life as much of wat He did and provided during my ITE days..... I came for the sole purpose tat tis polytechnic will be filled with christians, who will stand on their feet and declare tat Jesus is their Lord and Saviour..... Studies is my number 2 agenda..... coz without God, there isn't a purpose in life. I wun go into details for now..... of coz i welcome feedback and stuff..... Purpose Driven - My passion, compassion & love for people.....
Till then, what is your purpose in life? What drives you? There's really nothing else except God and His kingdom. What else is worth our time? Technology will fade, Fashion will fade, everything will fade..... What is seen is temporary, what is not seen is eternal.
What are you waiting for??
In His Love,
