Once I Was Lost, But Now I Am Found! Posted: 14 Mar 2013 08:00 AM PDT Throughout the month of March, we will be posting daily about Chinese Muslims, the prayer focus for our upcoming Secret Church gathering. We invite you to learn about Chinese Muslims and pray with us for God's glory to be made known among them. If you would like to read other posts in this blog series, you can find them here. Photo Courtesy of Pray for the Hui My name is Aaron* and I want share my life with you. I was born in northwest China in a Muslim city to a Muslim family. But I didn't know much about the Islamic culture until I left home. When I started college, I had two Muslim roommates in my dormitory. They asked me to be a real Muslim guy, so we went to the mosque on Fridays. After college, I went back to my hometown. Sometimes when I felt down and sad, I went to the mosque to do the ritual prayers, but it didn't help. I still felt sad because it was just a rite, a ceremony. I had a very good friend who suggested that I read the Bible. She said, "If you read it, you will know more about the Lord. You will know His words, which may help you." But I thought it was the Christian's book, so as a Muslim, I must not read it. However, she told me, "You can make your own choice. If it is the truth, it is not afraid to be put under the light. If it is not the truth, you can choose to give it up. Give yourself a chance to know God." And then I started to read it. I felt like God was very kind to me, just as it is written in a song Amazing Grace, "Once I was lost, but now I am found, was blind, but now I see." I felt so inspired, and then I came to Him. Now I want to spend all my life serving Him. * Name changed PLEASE PRAY Pray that Aaron will grow daily in his walk with Jesus and that he will boldly proclaim the Gospel to the Muslims around him. Pray that God will form a Muslim-background church around Aaron so that he and other Muslim-background believers like him will be able to worship together.
