Yuanmay's Testimony Monday, October 26, 2009  Dear friends,My name is Yuan May and I am 16 years old. I am currently studying at CHIJ Secondary Toa Payoh. I live with my parents and one brother. Although it is a complete family, my dad is often absent from my life. We didn't interact much and often, I had no one to turn to for guidance and affection.Three years ago, before I came to church, my whole life was filled with Bitterness and Loneliness. I had a wide social circle outside, yet I had always yearned for someone to be totally dependent upon. I was a hot-tempered and vulgar person. My life revolved around the need for love, but I did not know what to do with my life, and I got into trouble with a few friends. On TWO occasions, the police was even involved. I was a troublemaker, and I was often called to the principal’s office with those friends. I caused my parents to worry often, yet I disobeyed them and even rejected their love for me when they tried to show it.Because I did not know how to find love at home, I turned elsewhere. I looked for relationships with guys. However, that did not cause my life to change for the better. Instead, I got into relationship problems. I realized that no matter how good the guy may be, they weren't the solution to my problems. They could not handle the issues that I had in trusting and loving people. As a result, I was often angry and disappointed. I may have had relationships, but still, I was unsatisfied. One day, my brother's friend whom I knew, invited me to attend a church service. I was curious about Christianity so I went along, and I met his church members. They were very sincere and are good company. I was awed. When I went back for service again for the next 2 weeks, I realised that God was the Person that my life was missing. I always wanted someone who has all the answers, all the affection, all the assurance. And I realised that it was unfair to expect it from the people around me. Because nobody is perfect. Only God can give me what I needed. This really broke my heart, and I decided to give God my life. So, 2 weeks after going to church, I decided to respond and give God my life.God began to give me the shoulder I wanted, and He replaced all my sins, hurts and bad manners. Though I still have my problems, but with God, I have the strength to overcome them.Truly, with God, my life has changed.I used to be the notorious troublemaker in school. But now, things have changed. I remember being rude to my teacher last year because I was displeased with her. But as I prayed, God calmed me down and gave me His peace. I treated her with respect, and she did too. We did not fight ever since that day I prayed to God. Now, all my teachers in the past years who pass me by in school always say the same sentence – “Hi Yuan May! You’re so smiley now, you have changed A LOT and it is amazingly beautiful”I'm grateful to God for coming into my life, and with Him, nothing is too difficult for me. I believe that God will continue to change my life. Thank you for your time. |
