The Path of Truth
“My life was not disciplined. My friends and I had no purpose to our lives; we gambled all the time. Gambling even caused me to lose my farmland. There were times I beat my wife for no reason; our life together was not happy.
The pastor from the village church would often visit my house and pray for me, but I didn’t listen to him. One day when I was passing by a house, I suddenly heard someone reading. I was astonished because I knew that nobody in that house could read or write.
I was very curious, so I entered the house and saw a group of 12 to 15 people listening to something (I found out later it was the Word of God on a Proclaimer). I didn’t know why, but I joined with them and began to listen.
Something happened . . . I joined the listening group every Tuesday to listen to the Word. I realized that I was not leading a happy life at all. I don’t know how, but gradually my life started to change.
"The Word of God completely changed my life."
My friends were not happy about this change, but I was happy. I learned many lessons from the Bible with the pastor’s help; we always pray together.
I gave up all of my bad habits and chose the path of Truth. The Word of God completely changed my life. My past was not so good, but now I lead a happy life.
My neighbors are even surprised by seeing the change in me. I simply tell them that Jesus changed my life. I was in death, but now I am in Life. Prayer and Bible reading are now a part of our family life. I always sit with my wife and study the Bible – and pray to my Lord Jesus.”
