God Loves You

My testimony: -

before I continue with this site... I think I should share my testimony with you all.
I am Rini Sarkar. I belong to a Hindu family. We are a family of four, my parents and my elder brother. We reside in Indore.
After my graduation, i moved to Mumbai for pursuing MCA. I got into a hostel, and my roommate is Maria.
Ad time passed by, I noticed, her relationshiop with God. I saw, that she loved God and she was so content with His work in her life. And I felt so empty inside. I'd never known that void in my life, till I met her. Slowly, the temptaion to know God for myself grew in me.

Yet, I didn't turn to God. But one day, I was in sheer despair. So many things were happening in my life, and making me feel low. I wanted peace... But didn't know where to look for it. It was a wild search, in all the WRONG places.

Maria dreamt that I was in distress, and she came to me. I talked to her about all that was happening in my life....
She took my hands in hers, and we prayed. THat was the moment, my life was transformed. It wasn't an explosion or something evry dramatic. It was just a subtle gesture from God, which I felt. It was His love and Peace flooding my entire being. I was changed internally....

By the time she finished praying for me, I was perfectly happy and in peace. God had revealed Himself to me... He has answered all the queries that were there in my mind. And enveloped me in His eternal love.

Soon after, I told Maria that I wanted to go to church with her. She was ecstatic! We went to church...And I found myself bonding with it. By the time I came back in the evening from my Pastor's house, something very important had happened. I had started believing in Jesus Christ, and I had faith!!

It was amazing.... after that gradually, things started happening. I was changed as a person. I was a sinner to the core, but after coming to the Lord..slowly that all went away. I started experiencing freedom and mental peace.

Then, God opened the ways for me to attend a worship camp at Khandala! It was only the mercy of God, that I was allowed to go. I saw so many of my friends trying to go, but their parents wouldn't allow them. but my parents...They just said "yes!" It was so amazing!!

Hallelujah!

God opened all ways for me to take the first step of obedience too. I was baptised on 27th Nov 2005. And I was able to speak of my faith openly, without fear of any man. I am so thankful to Jesus..

He healed my ear, which was deaf. He provided for me when I needed something.

And most of all, He died on that cross for me!

Oh, when I see people who don't believe in Him, I just cant stop telling them, what Jesus did for them. If only they realise someday, by the mercy and grace of The Holy Spirit! The heavines will rejoice for their realisation.
