Hello everyone and Namaste!
Praise be to God who blessed us, Psalm number 107:1 says. Give thanks to the LORD for He is good: His love endures forever.
I want to introduce myself with a short Life Testimony.
I. My Life Testimony
My name is Kamal Saini, former general secretary of CMI, India. And I am an advocate.
Before meeting Jesus, I was a very timid and weak boy from the Hindu upper caste family. In 2011, my friend took me to the Church (We call Center) for English classes. But over there I learned the bible instead of English. In 2012 I received the word from John 8:12 “I am the light of the world. Whoever follows me will never walk in darkness, but will have the light of life.” My heart was so dark with an uncertain future life. I was wasting my everyday life with useless gossiping. I was filled with unknown fear and darkness. I didn’t know which way I’ll have to go. But Jesus declared that he is the light. With this Verse I accepted Jesus as my personal savior. After believing in Jesus I got the purpose of my life. I found hope in my life. I was doing laborer work as an auto electrician in the bus station. I was a hopeless laborer. But God had just begun his work in my life. My shepherd Dr. William Singh encouraged me to go for higher Studies. Then I have done my Graduation and Master’s in Political science and after that I joined the Law College and now I became an Lawyer/advocate and currently am preparing for masters in law and having aim to study in Frankfurt.
II. Persecution and Faith
When my family shifted to the West Delhi from the North. My family wanted me also to leave the Church & Jesus and to live comfortable with them. But I never wanted to leave him. I was full of zeal to know Jesus and share it with others. My parents also gave me up. So I was persecuted by the family and relatives continually.
Still, I stood firm to serve many sheep in North Campus of Delhi University. And Right now 4 of my Disciple are Director of the North center. And many of them are the good leaders by God’s Grace.
One side God was gracious to me I and I was growing in faith same time I found he tested my Faith. My brother died from cancer in the year of 2013, my family members thought it happened because I left the Hindu gods and started to learn the bible. Even after that my mother was also diagnosed with cancer with the same problems. So, my family members stopped me, persecuted me not to go to the Church/center again.
One-day God proved that I love Jesus and that I am God’s servant. My neighbor aunt was suffering with body pain and was crying. Then, my mother saw her worse condition for a month and asked me to pray for her. My mom recognized me as a Jesus’ servant unconsciously. I went and prayed for my aunts healing in Jesus name. Suddenly I found that she woke up from her pain and fully healed and my mom said to me, “Thank you, my son”.
Seeing my aunts immediate healing, surrounding people were surprised. My worried face was also changed with great joy. I realized that our God exists once again. God was listening to my prayer.
However, since the whole world was suffering from Covid 19, I also was having quite tough time to maintain my mission life, my mother also suffered in the cancer hospital 8 months, in between father also suffered so much I had a very tough time to see my patents in such condition. Moreover my spiritual father also suffered much and he was hospitalized. It was the worst time I had gone through. And then My mother at last suffered so much even she lost the desire to live anymore but I find when I shared the Gods word with my mother continually, then she became peaceful and accepted Jesus as the Lord, I find God gave her much more time to accept Jesus as her Lord. As 2Corinthians. 1:6- If we are distressed, it is for your comfort and salvation; if we are comforted, it is for your comfort, which produces in your patient endurance of the same sufferings we suffer.
But at last she left us and passed away on 28th February 2022. But I kept my faith by holding the words of God. MY coworkers & Shepherd helped me to be very strong in this time.
Even God made me very strong to helped my family with his words, I find I wonderful grace of God that how wonderfully God is working and living with me.
Overall through many incidents happened in my life but I acknowledge that Hebrew 4:12 says, “For the word of God is living and active. Sharper than any double-edged sword, it penetrates even to dividing soul and spirit, joints and marrow; it judges the thoughts and attitudes of the heart.”
I thank God for everything, and today I am here by his grace though my Visa was refused but I believe in my living God remembering what he has done in my life therefore in result I got the Visa.
