Hi sir Otto! I saw the article. 😊 I loved how you started it. Very detailed. (Laughs)
It made me miss our training. I didn’t think that our induction is still fresh in your memory, but it’s great to know that it is. I want you to know that it’s the same for me. I will not forget the moments we shared in the induction. Especially, the part when John said that faith in God was stupid.
As a Christian, I felt irritated when I heard it. I thought that he was mocking God. I got furious! But as I continued to listen to him, the hate in my heart was replaced by compassion. How can I have Jesus and live a happy life while this man is not even aware that God exists?
From that moment, I decided to share Jesus with him. (Laughs) I remember it so distinctly. I brought reading materials about God. Every time we talk, I try to point out God’s goodness (Laughs).
Then I invited him to my church, and he attended regularly. To be honest, some people did assume that he went to church because of me, so we decided to participate in different services and catch up on other days.
He still attended, as usual, he even joined a discipleship group. John is faithfully doing this on his own. Do I seem defensive? (Laughs)
I also want to clarify that John and I are good friends. For now, I want him to experience the 'true life' with God.
Thank you for the article, Sir Otto. I appreciate it! 😌 I admire your talent for speaking, and now, even in writing. I would ask him to subscribe to your website too. 😊 More power sir. God bless you!
Sam

You are a part of the reason this blog exists. I pray that there will be more people like you that will rise and help change the world for the better by sharing Jesus.
Philippians 2:1-2
Therefore if you have any encouragement from being united with Christ, if any comfort from his love, if any common sharing in the Spirit, if any tenderness and compassion, then make my joy complete by being like-minded, having the same love, being one in spirit and of one mind.
