From Life-Growth Lgi archives. emmanuel Silvinos testimony: There is a time in everyone’s life when we feel lost, vulnerable and inadequate. Let us not deceive ourselves: in our life we will find vigor and victory and depression and defeat. When trials and tribulations are currently happening, we frequently recognize these hardships as something that is very terrible and unfortunate. Eventhough I am blessed with so many things in my life, there was a sense of nothingness inside of me. For the past few weeks my life has been in a whirlwind of problems. I felt so lost and lonely. I have had restless days and sleepless nights. I guess after being through so many hardships already, I was forced to re-examine my life. When all else failed, there was no one to turn to and seek comfort from, but God. As a result, my conquest in finding Him and having a true relationship with him started. For the first time in my life, I really felt the thirst and hunger for our Lord’s love and solace. This lead me into attending the WindWatch. During this prayer meeting, a lot of my heart’s internal struggles were solved; a lot of my questions were answered. When I was being prayed for by the pastors, I suddenly felt a gentle heat inside my chest as if there was a small fire burning inside of me. As the heat grew stronger all my doubts and fears went away. It was as if I had no problems and my mind was clear from all my troubles. Then I felt something I haven’t felt for weeks…I felt PEACE. There was an instant change of how I saw things. All this time my Lord Jesus was working in my life, in a loving effort to make me seek him first above all else. The virtue of hope now assures me that Our Lord Jesus Christ governs my life with His all-powerful providence and that he will give me all the means that I will need. It is this hope that makes me aware of our Lord’s constant goodwill towards all of us. He is always ready to hear us, because He never tires of listening. Now I have realized that Our Lord Jesus Christ is interested in my love, my joys, my successes, and also in my worries, my sufferings and my failures. I also learned that I should not only hope in Him when I am weak, In good times and in bad times I should call upon our Heavenly Father, taking refuge in His merciful protection. It is now my conviction that through all the evils of this world, my nothingness will turn into irresistible strength because my Lord and Savior Jesus Christ is always with me no matter what. “The Lord is my strength and refuge; whom shall I fear?” as read to me by pastor mina. Em passed away 2 years ago in a drowning accident. He was loved by so so so many. We love you em, until now. We will see you pa naman...in eternity.
