My Testimony

I became a Christian in 1983 and am actively involved in web-based singles ministries.

In 1987 the Lord brought me into blessing with an even deeper prayer life and love for God. Still my heart was deeply hurt and longing for a dear spouse. Some days I would pour out my heart in utter bitterness and wonder of how God could be so hurtful to me by still not answering my prayer for such a dear one. I prayed month after month and year after year. I cried out to God, fasted and spent hours before Him but all seemingly to no avail.

My prayer life increased as to my love for Him, ‘Spurred on by the hope that God had given me for a spouse, my prayer life increased as did my love for Him’.

The many deep trials that racked my emotions and my heart were to be used of God like Hannah’s pain to mould me into a man who would pray and spend time alone with God more than perhaps many others. I now see some of His purposes because in his grace God has used me to bless many people.

On August 23rd 2003, the Lord finally broke into my life after a night of prayer and revealed to me that He was able to be my greatest happiness and that nothing else in this world could make me happier; not even a wife.

I had always said to the Lord that I would never be truly happy until He answered that prayer, but I was proved wrong.

For 6 weeks I was in heaven and the Lord used the words of an English song writer Matt Redman to give a song that changed my life. It was called “when the music fades, and all is stripped away and I simply come” and then went onto say “It’s all about you Jesus”. The new joy I found was out of this world, and from that day I have longed to see others blest. We can truly have a spiritual romance with God that is as real and wonderful as a dear earthy spouse could be. I finally discovered the most intense and beautiful relationship that a man could have”.
