HERO OF FAITH


Living in a time when the world makes heroes of athletes, actors and other so-called celebrities of every sort, it is so difficult for some one to become a hero of faith. It’s much like the difference between God’s wisdom and human wisdom.

While at campus, students were lovers of themselves, boastful, abusive, and unforgiving, without self control, deceiving and being deceived, lovers of pleasures rather than God. The situation went from bad to worse when they passed a law to make all the so- called saved speechless. In this case, I was excluded from taking part in any university activities and assembly.
Two reasons were given for the exclusion:  First we as Christians did not show compassion to the lovers of themselves (same sex) when they needed it. Second, we were so slanderous and disobedient to the university council. 

And therefore heavy punishments such as forced homosexuality, biting you in case you are found worshiping God, and others which I can’t even tell by my tongue were imposed on any one who deliberately breaks the law.

Many of my fellow Christians lost the battle in the process. But in spite of plaguing brutal punishments and challenges once to the point of losing my life, I stick led on the truth as written in the bible [Isaiah 40:31] “but they who wait for the LORD shall renew their strength; they shall mount up with wings like eagles; they shall run and not be weary; they shall walk and not faint”.

At last, I got inside the hearts of many un holy students at campus because of my strong faith in JESUS, best of all many accepted Jesus as their personal savior. You too can be a hero of something you love and trust, irrespective of what challenges that may come your way.
