Indeed, it is a great opportunity for me to share my testimony on how Great God is and has touched my life. I never thought that I would be posting my testimony here because I couldn’t imagine how I had lived my life before – it was a waste of time. Years ago, before I truly accepted God as my personal savior, I was like a child who focused much on three things: academic rating, money, and fame. All of them boil down into one thing– glory.

During my last year in the college, I kept myself busy in serving my fellow Education students. Thus, I was positioned as the president of the student council. While doing this, I also had to strive for high grades in my academics for I was vying for an academic award. In short, my primary goal was to achieve the academic and leadership awards in my graduation.

I always kept on burning the midnight oil every night to balance these two enormous tasks. Suddenly, I became too busy until the time came that I had no time to attend Sunday services (at 8 in the morning) at the church. All I had to do is pray at night, before I go to bed, that God may help me all throughout the trials and undertakings I was facing. Several Sunday services I have missed and I was terribly ill with bundles of things (e.g. school projects, reaction papers, demo teaching, endless meetings/planning/execution of project/programs for the Education Department). My life back then was like a roller coaster – I kept on doing those things on and on. I seldom felt serenity and calmness during those times because I worked too much on doing those things. It was like I seek Him more when I was in great depression than in my happiness.

In all honesty, I really love Him, but it was not as much as His’. Upon realizing this, I felt guilty and shameful of myself. Apparently, in my actions, it appeared that He was not totally my priority because I missed lots of Sunday services because of focusing on my school responsibilities. Despite my irresponsibility towards HIM, HE still granted my heart’s desires. I received the awards I was aiming for on my graduation; I had a graceful exit in my term as the president of the council; most of our projects/programs for the school were successful; the administration recognized me and I received fame from the school. I was crying lugubriously because of His indescribable Love to me even though I turned my back to Him whenever I was busy.

The very first time I was able to attend the Sunday service, I felt God’s warm embrace kissing my forehead, wiping my tears on my face and said, “Son, I’m glad you came back home. I missed you so much.”

Now, I’m proudly serving Him for what He had done for me.

No matter how we turn our backs to Him, He is always there ready to embrace us with his forgiveness.

It is never too late to come back in His arms where we belong.

I hope you were blessed with God’s unceasing love to us like Saul’s experience.

Thank you so much Sir Tim for initiating this movement.
God bless us all!

I want to share these two songs which had given me lessons and helped me correct my mistakes.

When God Ran – Benny Hester

Almighty God, the great I am
Immovable rock, omnipotent, powerful, awesome Lord
Victorious warrior, commanding King of Kings
Mighty conqueror, and the only time
the only time I ever saw Him run

CHORUS:
Was when He ran to me, He took me in His arms
Held my head to His chest, said “My son’s come home again”
Lifted my face, wiped the tears from my eyes
With forgiveness in His voice He said,
“Son do you know I still love you?”
He caught me by surprise when God ran

The day I left home I knew I’d broken His heart
And I wondered then if things could ever be the same
Then one night I remembered His love for me
And down that dusty road ahead I could see
It was the only time – it was the only time I ever saw Him run

And then He ran to me, He took me in His arms
Held my head to His chest, said “My son’s come home again”
Lifted my face, wiped the tears from my eyes
With forgiveness in His voice He said,
“Son do you know I still love you?”
He caught me by surprise as He brought me to my knees
When God ran – I saw Him run to me

BRIDGE:
I was so ashamed, all alone and so far away
But now I know He’s been waiting for this day

I saw Him run to me, He took me in His arms
Held my head to His chest, said “My son’s come home again”
Lifted my face, wiped the tears from my eyes
With forgiveness in His voice I felt His love for me again

He ran to me, He took me in His arms
Held my head to His chest, said “My son’s come home again”
Lifted my face, wiped the tears from my eyes
With forgiveness in His voice He said, “Son”, He called me Son
He said, “Son do you know I still love you?”
He ran to me and then I ran to Him
When God ran

Indescribable - Chris Tomlin

From the highest of heights to the depths of the sea
Creation's revealing Your majesty
From the colors of fall to the fragrance of spring
Every creature unique in the song that it sings
All exclaiming

Indescribable, uncontainable,
You placed the stars in the sky and You know them by name.
You are amazing God
All powerful, untameable,
Awestruck we fall to our knees as we humbly proclaim
You are amazing God

Who has told every lightning bolt where it should go
Or seen heavenly storehouses laden with snow
Who imagined the sun and gives source to its light
Yet conceals it to bring us the coolness of night
None can fathom

Indescribable, uncontainable,
You placed the stars in the sky and You know them by name
You are amazing God
All powerful, untameable,
Awestruck we fall to our knees as we humbly proclaim
You are amazing God
You are amazing God

Indescribable, uncontainable,
You placed the stars in the sky and You know them by name.
You are amazing God
All powerful, untameable,
Awestruck we fall to our knees as we humbly proclaim
You are amazing God
Indescribable, uncontainable,
You placed the stars in the sky and You know them by name.
You are amazing God
Incomparable, unchangeable You see the depths of my heart and You love me the same
You are amazing God
You are amazing God
