THE LOST SHEEP…
Jesus said “ If one of you had hundred sheeps and lost one, would you not leave the ninety nine in the wilderness and go looking for the lost one until you find it. And when you find, you would carry it home on your back full of joy. Then you call your friends and neighbors and say “ Rejoice I have found my LOST SHEEP.”
The Lost Sheep that I am talking about is none other than me who found my salvation in Christ our Lord. He came all the way searching for me when I was lost in wilderness. He saw my agony n wept wit me. He assured me a place in heaven if I promised to follow him without turning back. He’s indeed an amazing God.
A normal life in this abnormal world is all that I wished. With the flow of materialistic and mechanic world I moved ahead. Everything was so perfect.
I had and still have a happy family life. My routine life included regular college, going 2 church once in a month, which according to me was very satisfactory. In short I lived a Christian life without Christ in it…. Huh!!! Now that’s weird.
Since everything was happy and gay I never felt a need to approach God for anything.
I dint know God personally so I didn’t have any challenges or trials in life.
On 15th of July 2004 I joined college of nursing for my further studies. I was very excited to live hostel life, in simple words I was all set to get spoilt.
I made choices not good in the eyes of our Lord. My days were filled with depression and grieve stricken. I was struggling each day to find peace and love.
God was watching this from above. He made a wonderful plan for me. When I entered my third year of nursing, I found few friends who where close to God and really wanted me to join this journey. Initially I took it very lightly, but as time passed, God started to play an important role in my life. I achieved an amazing peace and love in His Company. It started changing me.
I was encountered by the Holy Spirit on 28th Dec 2007. I could see a ray of light falling on me and a voice saying.. “ I choose you”. It shook me. It didn’t take time for me to realize that God has chosen me for work.
The song that exclusively comes in my mind is
“ I’ll be somewhere…
… Working for my Lord”
A song of inspiration, along with few friends to guide and inspire me for this journey…to push me closer to God.
After knowing God I faced many trials and temptations. But that shouldn’t discourage any of us. It’s just a test to check whether are you really up to your goal. It did disturb me, confuse me. But now God has given me the strength to face the tests.
Before I was born I was conceived in God’s mind. I’m no accident. I’m here for God’s purpose.
Through my testimony I wanted to share how God entered my life permanently, how I grew closer to Him, how he forgave a sinner… ‘A way too big’ sinner like me.
This is the time and opportunity for you to come closer to God. Submit yourselves to Him.
Doesn’t matter how much or how big you have sinned, our God has a big and merciful heart, enough to forgive u.
All you have to do is Repent and believe. He’ll be glad to come searching for His next lost sheep
Stay Inspired!!!!
