Then I was chosen to study engineering at
another college. There too, the other students
bullied me, saying words that hurt me. While I
was there, I joined a group of Christians in the
college. At last I heard how I could know Jesus
Christ for myself. They explained how he wants
to be our friend
and can help us in
all our troubles.
In April 1991, I
asked Jesus to be
my friend. I
realised that going
to Christian
meetings was not
enough. I needed
to ask him to forgive me for all the wrong
thoughts and all the wrong things I had done,
and to give me a new start. My life began to
change as I read what God said in the Bible (the
Christians' holy book). I knew that he was
speaking to me in my mind as I talked with him.
I found it was not enough for me to have
parents who are Christians. I also needed to
ask for God's forgiveness for myself, and to ask
him to be my friend. The other students still
bullied me but God helped me with my
problems."
