From Doubt to Devotion: My Journey with God by Wilver

How God change my life?
Well, I don’t know how God change my life but the only thing I knew is that, he chose me to be his servant and to spread his message to the world.

I grew up my elementary days and highschool days both in private school and they taught us a lot about God but I never felt before the true meaning of CHRISTIAN and how the HOLY SPIRIT is working on us.

College days came and I met a lot of people with different personalities. Some others are so wild that you want to experience what they experience already. Like, night out, liquors at marami pa. But, I think I’m very bless enough because God send us a one person to enlighten us and to seek his name. Well, when they are all Christian already they are having a hard time to me because what comes up from my mind is they have a different religion na iba sa kinalakihan kung relihiyon.

I think almost 5 months nila akong inimbita to visit their church and they never give up. It was January 8 2017 the first time I went to their church. I went there because its part of my new years resolution and I promise to them. The first moment na pumunta ako sa church nila, na culture shock ako kasi ibang iba ito sa pamamaraan ng kanilang service but I never mind because the first moment that I went there is also the first moment na nafeel ko ang presence ni God na parang mawawasak yung ulo ko but at the same time na feel ko din na parang may yumayakap sakin.. I don’t know if you feel the same way but that was I felt the moment also that you don’t care if someone is looking at you or whatsoever because the only thing that you care about is that the HOLY SPIRIT is working in you.

I cried so loud like I don’t care about my surroundings, I smiled so wide na para akong baliw and I pray hard na first time Kong ginawa. After that Sunday service my mom was hospitalized Monday morning and I don’t what to do kasi kahit yung doctor Hindi malaman kung anong sakit ang may meron si mama.. I ask God . why? Bakit ganito? I really don’t what to do.

The doctor even said na magprepare na kami if what will happen next kasi nasa 50/50 stage na daw siya. But what surprise me ay yung mga tao na Hindi mo inakala na tutulong sayo by their PRAYERS , and I do believe that PRAYERS are so strong . because my mom was healed not totally but she survived from the pain na niraranas niya gabi gabi and they even visit my mom time to time to check is she’s okay already.

What I’ve learned is the FELLOWSHIP from them because the sons and daughters of GOd ay walang iwanan sa hirap man o ginhawa. Kahit wala kaming binayad sa kanila okay lang kasi ang importante ay kung paano mo ibagay ang buong buo sarili mo sa panginoon.

And now, I’m reading a Bible and having a devotional every night, I pray everyday, I am attending prayer meeting every Wednesday , build group/fellowship every Thursdays and Fridays ,morning and afternoon service every Sundays and I put God first before anything else.

Well, sometimes its hard to be a Christian ,some people laugh at you, some people will criticize you and a lot of persecution na hinaharap and a lot of temptation but when you give yourself to God you don’t need to be worry because real FAITH gives us rest.

I wanna show to the world how God is great and how God is merciful.

Yes that’s my story and I know I have still a lot of challenges/trials in life but just #TRUSTGOD and #PRAYTOGOD
