Salome's Testimony:

Salome’s testimony

I was born in a Christian family, but I guess I really started having a relationship with Jesus when I came to TCIS. About few months ago, I was really stressed out because of my school work and my family situation. We had to move from Cheonan to Daejon after my first year at TCIS. I used to be a dorm student but we had some problems and had to move. It was quite different living near the school but I could get used to it as the time went by. One day, I had a big test but the day before I played all day without studying at all and came into my house. My mom got really cross and we had a huge fight. She sent me to the school that was very expensive but could guarantee my future because she thought I could handle with all my school work and be mature enough. But although I knew that my mom was really having a hard time earning all the money for out family and was tired all the time, I just couldn’t stop myself from getting angry at my mom. We both hurt each other a lot and I came into my room, sat, and prayed for real with all my heart for the first time. I obviously have prayed many times but this was my first time to actually get closer to God and actually take him into my life. I cried unbelievingly much that night trying to calm myself down and let God control everything in me and suck out all the evil thoughts in my heart. After I was done with praying, I felt so much better and relieved that I actually let him take control of me. Since then, I listened to every single word that God has given to us in bible, and got closer every time. Whenever I am in trouble and feel so down, God was always there for me and was protecting me from the bad things. Now I got to love him with all my heart and still could get on well with my family.
