Real-life Stories

Being a Christian isn't a religion - it's a real and personal relationship with God. This means that we relate with God and he changes our lives and situations. And that's just what we've experienced. You can read some examples here.

"God is faithful"

The truth is that my life has been "full", and not in the good sense of the word. When I was five months old, a malignant tumour was found in my left eye, and they had to remove my eye; when I was nine, I was diagnosed with diabetes, and this really turned my life back on itself: I started having eating disorders which ended up in anorexia and bulimia; related to all this and the low self-esteem I developed with my illnesses, I tried to commit suicide on more than four occasions. But without me realising it, God was at work in me, and got me out of all of that. Apart from this I've also had other sicknesses like tuberculosis, hepatitis and hyperneuropathy (damage to the nerves in my legs), but I say the same again: God has always been at my side, he has kept me. And he's given me a promise: I am going to be healed of my diabetes.

"I owe it all to Him"

More than 28 years ago, before I got married, I asked God for a job and a house to live in. He told me that he would give me them, and he confirmed it to me once we were married. You all know how God has more than kept his promise, and in August 2005 it was 28 years of enjoying a steady job and our house - roomy, light, with wonderful views. And in all this time we have seen his faithfulness, day by day. I owe it all to him. And I know that his love will keep me right till the end.
