Let the word of Christ dwell in you richly, teaching and admonishing one another in all wisdom, singing psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, with thankfulness in your hearts to God.

Colossians 3:16

Adventures with the Lord is a Christian blog where we share our testimonies in our personal faith journey with the Lord, our insights on the word of God, and anything else that inspires us to follow the Lord more. By doing so, we hope that you will be encouraged in your own walk with the Lord.

If you are not a believer, I encourage you to believe in Jesus today. God loves you so much that He died for you on the cross so that you can have life to the full: Life walking with the Lord. He will take you on many adventures that you can’t even picture right now. All you need to do is to believe and accept that Jesus is your Lord and Saviour.

Thank you for visiting Adventures with the Lord, and we hope that your day will be blessed!

I’ve been going to church since I was small. God has always been real to me. I know He exists through the answers to my prayers.

One day, when I was about 10, the Sunday school teacher taught us about hell. That was some place I did not want to go, so I accepted Jesus as my Lord and Savior then.

However, when I was around 16, I started questioning whether I still believed in Jesus. I mean, I believed when I was 10, but I don’t know much when I’m 10. So I did a lot of soul searching and talking to people about why they believe and follow Jesus.

I came to the conclusion that without Jesus, you can live, but you’re never alive. It was then that I really started to believe and follow Jesus. He’s been taking me on adventures ever since.

I, like my husband Jeffrey, grew up going to church, and had heard of the name Jesus.

One night my mother explained to my sister and I that sin separates people from God, and that Jesus was God’s Son, who was born to save mankind.

I had many questions, one being why God’s Son would choose to be born like me. For the first time, I was really bothered by sin as I realized that my desire to do what I wanted, regardless of how it affected anyone else, was sin! I kept wronging God, and I couldn’t think of a way to stop! I thought that if someone were to be different, like have no faults, this would change everything, and I would try to be like them. But I didn’t seem to have met anybody like that.

I heard my mother say that Jesus saves us from the punishment we deserve, if we were to tell God we had sinned and ask for His forgiveness. I didn’t understand how what Jesus had done would change me and stop me from sinning, but that was the answer! It only seemed right to talk to God; He really loved me, and had given me so much. He had, after all, sent Jesus to come and die knowing fully what I would do. I didn’t know what to say, so prayed along with my mum.

I believe that nothing is impossible with God. Just as He called me, helped me to pray, and changed my life, I know it is true that he never leaves me nor forsakes me. I can talk to God about anything, even the things I don’t like so much, because He knows and cares about everything about me. I have found a joyful life trusting in The Lord.

I am a Christian medic specialising in Oncology. I currently live in London, UK. Growing up going to church, I enjoyed the Bible stories, the friendships, the stickers I got (Yes I was a sticker-collector).

One Sunday however, I heard a challenging Sunday message where the Pastor asked us to consider carefully who we really think Jesus is. Is he just a good teacher? Or is he Lord over our lives? I was only about 11 at the time, but I felt compelled to respond to the question. I thought carefully and pieced together what I have learned about Jesus over the years. If I believe in what he claims in the Bible, then the logical response is to believe in him and call him as Lord over my life. So I did.

Over the years, my faith has grown through many experiences and trials, but it all started with this seed in my heart.
