Turning Point

I've been pondering so long what title I should use for this post. I was experimenting then I suddenly thought of the above title, I had GOD's peace in my heart.

The day that Kuya Israel visited my dad, he talked about turning point. And I agreed without a doubt.

Everyone has his own turning point.

Sometimes, even how long you have become a Christian, you still don't put Christianity into action. Sometimes, it's the opposite.

If you have been a faithful reader of my blog, you already know what happened to my dad last May. My dad testified in front of our congregation last Sunday about his life story and the accident. That was my signal to share some about him to the world for GOD's glory in his life. A beautiful testimony.

My dad had so many vices. A generational curse. He jumped from a two-storey building because they had trouble in a bar with his friends. My dad has a huge improvement now from the May 16th accident. His stories have been more consistent and beautiful. The first and second week after the accident, he talked a lot about death and violence. But now, this is his consistent story to us...

"GOD toured me around familiar places. HE toured me at the school. HE let me see images of you, my family, and of me with my friends drinking. HE told me how I was wasting money on vices and my family just staying at home without the head of the family. GOD showed me my siblings and my family when all of you were in the hospital worried about me. GOD showed me how my siblings have been suffering because of poverty and I was just out having fun with my friends. Since I was doing all of that, HE asked me to go with HIM and leave all of you. I wept and asked for another chance. I told HIM that I will change now and turn away from all vices. I will change my life and be a father to my children and a husband to my wife. GOD gave me another chance. I also told HIM to change me because my family alone cannot help me. Only HE can change me."

This happened before he has been conscious at the hospital. He said when GOD put him back at the hospital, he saw us laying our hands on him and praying for him at the Emergency Room. Actually, when I've placed my hand on his left leg while I was praying, that leg suddenly jerked and moved. I knew then that my dad was safe. Safe in the arms of our FATHER. My dad has been given a second chance to live. He has experienced two divine visitations. You have no idea how much we are very happy about this. GOD gave him his turning point. We waited for more than 25 years for him to change and surrender his life to GOD. Now, it has come. Every wait is truly worth it. I seal my dad with the covering of the BLOOD OF JESUS CHRIST. Peace and Kingdom of GOD upon him all his life.

So for all those who have been waiting for a child, husband/wife, sister/brother, parent, relative or friend to be transformed by GOD, just wait and be patient. Don't ever forget to keep believing and wait for GOD's Perfect Timing. Don't force them to change because only GOD can transform hearts.

I am a living testimony of that fact.

GOD IS GREAT!!! TRULY, ALL THINGS ARE POSSIBLE WITH GOD!!! ALL THE GLORY BELONGS TO GOD ALONE!!!

P.U.S.H.
