When I accepted God as my savior, and surrendered everything that was left of me...
My life changed. I started to rely on Him for strength, I got weak by the flesh but I became stronger by faith as God revealed the truth to me, through his words.

Just like what the lyrics of the this amazing song meant:
And ever since that moment, I've never been the same.
I finally realized what I lack in my life, contentment, joy, and peace.
but above all..... "God"
but above all..... "God"
The bible says:
"Because you have struggled with God and with men and have overcome"
~ Genesis 32:28B
.....Once you have struggled then you will overcome....
.....You will overcome what blinded you to come to Christ..... (Sin - hatred, bitterness)
.....You will understand the truth of your life's purpose..... (Love to self, others, and God)
.....And you will know what you need in your life........ (Relationship with God)
.....You will overcome what blinded you to come to Christ..... (Sin - hatred, bitterness)
.....You will understand the truth of your life's purpose..... (Love to self, others, and God)
.....And you will know what you need in your life........ (Relationship with God)
"When you have a real encounter with God you will never be the same again"
~ Ptr. Jeff (VCF)
......Once you have the right relationship with God, everything that you didn't understand about religion will all make sense.... It is no longer a "religion", it is a "relationship"....

Christianity is more than just a religion. It is first and foremost a relationship with God. The foundation of any healthy relationship is communication. The better the communication, the better the relationship will be. God talks to us in many ways but primarily through His word, the Bible. We talk to Him through prayer. We learn to listen to the sound of God's voice in our lives when we read His word. He listens to us when we pray. We respond to His word with action. He responds to our prayers with action.
~ Steve Murrell, (One 2 One Ch. 5. p.27)
.....It is by reading the One 2 One book with Eka, a friend of mine when God has finally revealed the truth, I can only connect the dots looking back on how he planned my life from the very start. He had molded my character from all the painful experience, the unbearable memories and the path I have once chosen long before. It was only now, I understood the purpose of my past. How it was relevant in my life and made me aware of everything still to come.
.....And its all because of "His love".
