Awesome testimony! After reading all that, there's still one thing that sticks out in my mind... how the man giving you the tract brought you to Christ. How awesome! It boosts my faith that the tract I give are planted in good soil

I'm glad many here have found my testimony to be a blessing and hopefully, encouraging. The purpose is to glorify GOD by letting you know what GOD brought me through, has blessed me with and how merciful He has been. Also, how mysteriously in the most awesome way He works wonders in our lives. Especially when He surprises us (when we least expect it too, even better).

A lovely testimony to His Grace and Mercy. When Noah built the Ark, the eagle came from its proud perch in the heavens, and the lion came from its den in the bush. Many ways lead to Christ.....but only Christ the door leads to God. You came your way brother Chad, and wonderful it is.

I was blessed with the read......and I pray His Blessing continue upon your life......I am sure it will.

I was 26 when I married my wife Brenda, and 2006 we celebrated our Ruby wedding, 40 years. I recall thinking when I was 26, it is time I found a good godly women. With hindsight my search was successful.

I am surprised you are single, I say surprised because you appear to favour marriage. I visit many churches and the lady candidates for marriage always out number the men!!

Surely in the churches around you.......there are good women looking for a loving husband?

God Bless You Chad........in Jesus

Like how my pastor reminds us. If we open our eyes, we don't see the bad economy or our debts, we see the riches and promises that our God has for us. How amazing it is to be His child?

Getting married isn't necessarily God's plan for everyone. Paul did say that it was better if men didn't marry even though it wasn't condemned. Why would St. Paul say this? I don't believe he himself ever married. I am married but have come to a realization that being married imposes certain prerequisites that as a spouse you have certain responsibilities towards your family. This is good and it's what God has created but it also tends to take away time that could be spent serving God. Some of us were meant to do special things for God, things far beyond marriage. It's just tough in this world today to be unmarried because people will try to figure you out and usually end up concluding that you're a homosexual or have some problem. I was there once having been single for 5 years as an adult and I got a taste of what this feels like. It's wrong for us to think that everyone should be married. It just not for everyone, plain and simple, but the world makes this so hard to accept.

This is very beautiful, almost like watching a movie!
I really won't comment my own opinions or thoughts now, all I'm leaving here is that this is beautiful.

God bless you Chad.

Great testimony, its true what the bible teaches that He's got good plans for our lives, do give us a future and a hope..

About your status, i would say you discern and wait on God's timing, it is the best. God knows how you long for a wife and the one after God's heart, someone who can share your vision to glorify God. All the best and thank you for sharing your testimony. Bless you.

Awesome testimony brother The candle thing was interesting, God does have a way of delivering us from all evil. Praise his name, the candle part reminded me of one of my first experiences with God.

I was falling into a deep sleep one night, when all of a sudden i was in a vision that i was lifted off my bed, and i was going round in a circle.

Every time i would go under the bed i would see a light, but while i was over top of the bed, it was just darkness. I woke up wondering what this could mean. I grabed my bible and opened it up, and sure enough my eyes fell on this scripture.

Luk 8:16 No man, when he hath lighted a candle, covereth it with a vessel, or putteth it under a bed; but setteth it on a candlestick, that they which enter in may see the light.

Amen, i was being told by God not to hide my new found faith. God works in mysterous ways. Im glad he drew you by his power as no man can come to him, unless the spirit draws him.

All praise to him for his wonderfull works towards us. May he draw all the people you, and we, have witnessed to over the years we have known him, and his grace towards us.

God bless brother, and prayers also for you and yours, (Ie a wife as well) may he bless you, and keep you, as well as your works here at Talk Jesus Forums.


God bless

Maybe you should write a book/novel/biography. The way you expressed your life captured my attention in a special way. I do believe that you have a very special gift and by writing the perfection of that gift will come!! GOD BLESS ! I Love You for listening to the instruction of GOD to continue with this site despite the attacks that come your way. You will continually be in my prayers. May the Holy Spirit Guide You all the days of your life. Pray, Praise, Worship, Love, Forgive, and Always Seek Him he shall direct thy paths.

Hello brother Chad. Thanks God for your testimony. Your labor in the Lord is not in vain. I thank the Holy Spirit for ushering me to a true and wholesome website that is hosted and owned by a fervent man of God like you. It reminds me to keep on fighting the "good fight of faith". And as what Paul has said, " imitate me, as I imitate Christ also".

Indeed, God has used you mightily for His glory. I pray that you'll not get tired in doing good things for the Lord, for He who began a good work in you will be faithful to complete it...

in Jesus' name, I humbly pray. Amen.
