Today is another great day!! I was so blessed the whole day today. Today I started to talk back with one of my friend. He is currently in Germany. We didn't really know each other before this. So, yea. We talked to each other back since last week. Just now we both spent few hours talking about Jesus. I am really glad to talk to him as he is really a very good preacher. He has told me many things about his life. This not only has inspired me but draw me closer to God!! I will share half of his story here. He is a born Christian. He was selected to bukit jalil when he is at the age of 13. He was so blessed for at least two years. He got chosen to go for tournaments around the world even though he wasn't the best player. Instead, the best player wasn't being chosen. That's called blessing from God!! So, everything has changed when he reaches 15. He started involving in girls, clubbing, drinking and etc. Few years later, he gets to know that there're cracks in his legs. Therefore, he had to quit from badminton. He was sent home to his hometown. Well, even though there're cracks in his legs and he can't even walk properly, yet he still go for clubbing. His dream always have been to be an actor or a film star! Such an ambitious guy isn't it? Somehow somewhere, one of his friend text-ed him and she was really a lost girl. This girl wasn't a Christian and never even heard of Jesus before. It was really a shocking message. She told him that she is going for a Christian event in bukit jalil and she invited him to go along. My this friend was annoyed by this girl as she kept asking him to go. My friend lied to her that he will be going but actually he is not going. What happened was at the very last minute, something just came to him and pushed him and he went. But when he reaches there, he was thinking why he is here?? So, the event started and the evangelist came on stage. That evangelist was famous. He has experienced God and save many souls. His name is Pastor Philip Mantofa. My friend planned not too listen to him but slowly, the Pastor got my friend's attention when he's story about his past. When it almost ends, my friend actually cried. And when there's an altar call, my friend ran and bow in front. That's when he felt the presence of God. The feeling is like something hot poured onto your body. Hence. after all that pain, suddenly he felt a warm feeling in his heart and he knows that God has forgiven my friend's sins once again. And on the spot, he has repented and asked for forgiveness. After the event, as he was walking back to his place, he received 4 calls. First call from his dad, saying that someone is gonna sponsor him to Germany for 6months for badminton. The second call from a director, asked him to act in a commercial. The third call was from Wilson company, telling him that they will sponsor badminton equipments to him and last call from a doctor saying that he wants to sponsor 1K plus facial product to him. This is truly an amazing testimonies!! As we always say, nothing is impossible through Christ who strengthen me!! Amen. Praise the Lord for everything He has done for us!!
