My Commitment with God

In my age of 17, I left home since I did not get along with my step mom. By knowing that my life would not be easy from that point, one night I seriously prayed to God, asked for his mercy to let me go as I needed to survive without carrying the name of "Christian" on my back. In return I had made a promise that I would be back and serve God when I reached the age of 40. In that case I would have 23 years or so to fight or to kill for living without punishing by God. At the time, 40 seemed a long way to go.

As years gone by; I endured enormous difficulties and hardship in my life; that only God knew what I had been through. In fact it was God carried me all the way that I did not realize at all times. Some months ago, I could not help thinking of the promise that I made with God some many years ago; my 40 would soon be arrived. I was sick worried about what was going to happen, may be I was going to die. Due to subconsciously panic; I had suffered from a serious depression for that matter. By shutting myself down my whole world was falling apart.

On 30 May 2004 I have made it clear to God that I would love to keep my words, my baptism was held at the Rhenish Church. Ever since my life has been changed that I am no longer afraid of what may lead in the future. Eventually I learn to put everything in God's hands. To share the lines that I always keep in mind - Where you see only one set of footprints in the sand during the saddest time in your life, it was then I carried you my precious child.
