My purpose of live
by Melanie Haller
Dear Reader,
With the following sentences I want to tell you about the most important thing in my life, why and how I got there and my reason for sharing this with you.
I grew up in Austria in a Christian home. In my childhood I heard a lot about God and the Bible, and I also knew that I have to give my life to Jesus Christ to receive eternal life and salvation. When I was 4 years old, I prayed to God that He would take control over my life and that I want Him to come into my heart. It might sound strange or unbelievable, but I do remember this moment unto now as if it was yesterday. Continue reading

A Walk of Faith with Jesus
By Tessa A. Sugito
Jesus is My Strength and Protector
Born and raised a Christian, my parents always taught me and my brother to rely wholly on God. I am truly grateful to them for telling me the way of truth from our early childhood, while some people have to find HIM in harder ways. With this way of upbringing, I could not exactly recall when I became a born again Christian. For me, it has been a continuous process of developing my relationship with Jesus Christ. Therefore, this testimony will be the experiences my family and I have been through as His children. Continue reading

What I lost, but found again!
By Ester Vainio from Finland
What I had.
From my birth I learned about the Lord Jesus Christ from my Finnish parents. I was told that Jesus came to die for my sins and from as far back as I can remember, I believed it and loved Jesus, the Savior of the world and King of kings. Even as a young child (5 years old) I told my friend to believe in Jesus because otherwise she would not be going to Heaven. Continue reading

Never too late!
A praying friend testifies, “With our loving and faithful God, it is never too late!”
God, who is faithful, answered one of my sincere prayers for a dear 80 year old friend here on Malta – it was another one of those wonderful breakthrough moments! This is what she told me: “My eyes have been opened, the scales fell off! Finally I can see, know and feel true love – God’s agape love! Now I understand what you’ve been talking about for so long!” Continue reading

My long awaited discovery!
By Pamela Purdy
Love never understood.
For years and years I searched for something that at first I could not put my finger on. Later on I discovered that it was love – true love, God’s love! For some reason I just could not understand or find it. Decade after decade went by and my searching seemed futile. Maybe the problem was my mother as she somehow could not given any love to me. I did receive love from my father and my husband. However, that made it even worse because in no way could I receive it. Even my 4 children did not receive any love. In raising them I just did my duty – that’s how it was and being in that state made me feel miserable and inferior.

I was born again twice!
by Mary Seychell
My story goes back to December 9th, 1956. It is a date that is etched into my brain. Here’s what happened. Together with my boyfriend (now my husband), my aunt and her 3 children, I went on a stroll along the sea cliffs, ‘tal- Munxar’, limits of St.Thomas’ Bay. Continue reading
