In 2022, I met Hur Yun at work. He shared with me that he was a Christian who attended church regularly. Initially, I was hesitant to visit a church because I had no experience with it and my family members were mostly Buddhists. But I decided to go. While I didn’t understand much of the sermons, I felt welcomed by the kindness of the people. After a few months, I joined the Basic Bible Class to learn more about Christianity.
During the class, Pastor Andrew asked a question that stuck with me: “Where will you go after you die?” I had never considered this before, and I couldn’t answer the question. He explained that without accepting Christ, we would all face eternal separation from God. This idea was hard for me to accept, as I felt it was unfair as I’ve always thought I was not a sinner.
Over time, due to my work schedule, I began attending church less. But one day, during a difficult period at work, I reached out to God in prayer, asking for His help. To my surprise, God answered me with mercy and grace, guiding me through that tough time. Despite my previous distance from Him, He didn’t turn away from me.
After that experience, I recognise that I am a sinner and need Jesus to forgive me of my sins. I accept Jesus as my Lord and Saviour. Then, I made a decision to prioritise church by requesting time off from work on Sundays. Since accepting Christ, I’ve felt a deep change in my life. I now rely on God for everything—praying during both good and bad times. Even when challenges arise, I no longer blame God or others. Instead, I trust that He has a purpose, and I feel a sense of peace in my heart.
