WHAT A BEAUTIFUL TRANSFORMATION IN MY LIFE
"To be a christian without prayer is no more possible than to be alive without breathing".
Martin luther king jr.
Though I was born a Muslim, am from a Muslim home but one day I just got tired of this life, things are getting more complicated for me, Stress, hardous and strenous work everywhere, I don't understand myself again, I just do have a bad day.
Sometimes, I do keep hope on tomorrow, thinking tomorrow will be better, but you know what! Even tomorrow tends to be more worse than today, things got piled up for me, we have already had 3 weeks of lectures, I haven't even open my book talk less of going through what we were taught in week 1 and this is week 3.
Candid speaking, is this how things will continue? Impromptu test all the time, I kept on writing rubbish, it wasn't that am not the serious type, I was the best student during my secondary days in my set. How come when I got to the University, things change.
After each lecture, I will leave for home, on getting to the school park, I will meet cue in which I won't have any other choice but to join, till after four hours before I get home, on getting home self, I would have almost exhausted due to the stress I went through during the day, So I wont be able to cook nor revise what we were taught during the day, Is this how things will continue?
Bad days started turning to bad weeks, Bad weeks started turning to Bad months, I can see test in few weeks time, I almost give up on everything because nothing is on my head ever since the beginning of the semester, and test is already in few weeks time,
One early morning, I jammed this God sent lady inside the cab, she's preaching the word of God to us, On getting to the school park, I call her attention and explained all my burden to her.
She smiled softly and told me God is already in control, she preached the words of God to me, From her words I realized she's a devoted christian, we exchanged numbers with her.
Every morning, she use to call me and remind me to be prayerful, she told me to always put God at the front in everything am doing. I started seeing changes in my life, Whenever she wake up in the midnight, she will call me to wake up too, we do pray for hours before we started reading.
I can see a bright changes in my life, I started covering topics we treated for a week in just one day, this is God's hand work,she smiled and told me that, when I revealed it to her. One day she came to me and told me she's going For a Missionary tour and she won't be back not until after my test.
I started feeling sad, I was like will I go back into those Sad days again? She said No.
She gave me a book titled "20 Ways to make Every day Better" Authored by Joyce Meyer.
She said this book is the key to my Success, I should hold on tight to it and she left.
I started reading this book, and started applying it teachings in my day to day Activities.
Candid Speaking, this book changes my life completely, Infact when comes the test period, I performed excellently, I had already finished all the syllabus for the semester before we started the exam. I had the best result in that semester.
I really thank the Girl for sharing the book with me.
This book helped me alot, because in the book I learnt whenever I wake up, the first person I should talk to is God. I should have a conversation with God by sending praises to him and demanding what ever I want from him through prayer. There are so many things that I learned in this book and on applying them, I see God's hand work in my life.
We all should endeavor to get a copy of this book as a christian, even Muslims too.
The book helped a lot.
At this junction, I draw my pen.
All praises be to the Almighty God.
God bless Christianity.
God bless all the pastors in the house.
God bless every church members in the house.
Thank you very much for reading.
Great
