[E]xperience

My brief testimony of how I became a Christian

Among great trials and tribulations and failures in life – the hand that led me to the knowing of the truth, ways and life; Jesus promised me that He will never leave me nor forsake me and He is faithful from my childhood day to till date; His gentle love and care and protection led me to believe in Him and trust His eternal plan for me; led me to become a Christian believer after baptism in 2002

Ministry Experience (Where I have served in the past, if applicable, including ChurchName, City/State, Position, Years Involved):

Abu Dhabi Evangelical Community Church – Prayer Ministry

List 3 Positive experiences from the past that made a big impact on who you are today:

The change in my characters from being a very short tempered person to something what my own eyes cannot believer today – I see a complete transformation. My name is Shanthi which means peace – that name has its meaning only after I came into Christ

Miracle healings twice in the year 2002; and one treatment without any further complications where His own hands delivered me from the bondages of sickness

Listening to what the Holy Spirit says in whispering voices in my life and since past 2002 and His voice that led me wait for the approval in every decision big or small that I do in my life

List 3 Negative Experiences from your past that have helped to Shape me, but also have given you great compassion for others going through similar circumstances:

Marriage failure and the lessons that I learned helps me to use those valuable and precious lessons that I learned to apply in the lives of others; I started praying and counseling those who undergo such marital issues so that marriage relationship is intact and that God is glorified

Failure in money management that led me to dig what bible says about money or resource management to be good disciple of Christ

Emotional rationalism what it means to apply in our lives to be a good Christian
