Walking the journey with new believers
August 8, 2024A journey of accepting the Lord and faith in Him
August 25, 2024My name is Omnia from Egypt, and I am 44 years old. I attended non-Christian studies and was not successful in my marriage. I was curious to know how followers of Christ pray. Learning about it impacted me, and I wanted to be more committed to prayer. In my old religion, I wasn’t very disciplined with prayers and couldn’t be convinced to follow certain restrictions. I wanted to follow Christ. The restrictions in my life caused me enormous stress and suppression, so I began researching liberation and freedom and how I could become more like the way God created me.
I found pages online where believers ask questions and I understood the doctrine of redemption. When I understood that Jesus is the only way for me to go to heaven, I felt that I couldn’t mix the two faiths. I was also afraid. How could I stay in my community when I desired to go to church? In the end, I decided to believe and put my faith in Jesus as my Savior and prayed to accept the Lord.
