With my years of serving Jesus, this is the 3 rd time that I attended a True Life retreat in CCF. God never failed to amaze me… I remember it was November 2013 when I publicly declared my faith in God in AUX True Life retreat. It felt great. By that time, I have already quit drinking and smoking, which I tried several times with my own strength but I failed. When my DGroup started to pray about it, in an instant, the addiction that I was enslaved with for more than 5 years disappeared by God’s grace. No withdrawal syndrome, I didn’t get sick, no negative effect on me. God is indeed good. So again, yeah almost 3 years ago when I got baptized. It was Pep Santos, the head of Morning Light – BPO Ministry in CCF Eastwood, who baptized me. I remember one of the three questions was if I have ALREADY accepted Jesus as my personal Lord and Savior. He didn’t ask if I would like to, and so I said YES because in my heart, I knew I did. Couple of days before that, we had a DGroup meet...
