I want to share something amazing that happened to me in November. I had a dream in which Christ spoke to me.
I had always been someone who believed but had not done anything about it. Until life turned ugly. Last year I left my job and felt let down by life. I started drinking. And then I knew I had to look for some answers. I started to attend a course at church and asked for prayer. I know now the truth of His Word - "But if from there you seek the Lord your God, you will find him if you look for him with all your heart and with all your soul." [Deuteronomy 4:29] And I am assured in my heart that that I know Him, and that He will love me until the day I die, and into eternity.
Some days I feel like I'm going to burst with joy. Other days life is hard...but He is still there for me. The hardest part of His wonderful revelation is that I know I have to share this truth with those around me..I have only discussed my dream with three people since November, and I hope to have the courage to share it with others in the coming months. I know that telling people about a dream is NOT necessarily going to bring them to faith, but I know it is changing my life. I have let go of my worldly ambitions, and, in a few days time I will be letting go of my past life (I will complete the last exams for the qualification I have been studying for) and starting anew. I believe the Lord has made it clear He has an opening for me in a foreign country and I am looking forward, in the next few months, to the day that I step onboard an aircraft and fly away to a new life, one in which I become the person that I really am inside, the person that is so desperate to be the man that He created, that He died for.
Yours in Christ,
Tolly
