Bless My Neighbor

I was never very religious, and I was a Muslim simply because my parents were. I believed that God was distant and angry with me. I suffer from a rare allergy condition. I feared for my life and in order to overcome my fear I tried to pray but felt nothing. Then I tried to memorize the Koran but as I read it, I found many contradictions and the words disturbed me. I felt that God wanted me to ask one of my friends about the Messiah. I didn’t know that she was a Christian, but she prayed with me and quoted Romans 5:8, “But God demonstrates his own love for us in this: While we were still sinners, Christ died for us.” I loved those words, and I began searching for testimonies on the internet. I researched until finally I felt that I was wasting my time by prolonging my decision. I knew the truth, and I surrendered my life to Jesus Christ. Pray that many throughout the Muslim world will know of God’s love and begin to love like Paul wrote about in 1 Corinthians 13.
