The first and biggest miracle of Christianity will remain to be “the changed lives”. Only Christ can turn Saul to Paul, a tax collector to an apostle and a criminal to a saint. No other power or religion on earth can do that; therefore the changed lives will remain to be the biggest miracle of Christianity.

Since Holy Week I have noticed a lot of changes in the lives of many people including myself. Even the theme of this past Holy Week was “Changed lives” without any one planning it; it was totally His plan. One of the greatest privileges and blessings of being a priest is to witness the change in people’s lives.

May be you are one of them! When is the last time you had a drastic change in your life? May be it’s about time! So I invite you to listen to ALL the sermons of this past Holy Week, in order. These were not my words or Abouna Anthony’s; they were the words of the Holy Spirit to His children.

This blog would have been very different if it was written a year ago. God has done a lot of positive changes in my life lately; specifically the past year. I thought I am something but He humbled me with great gentleness to show me that I’m nothing. He didn’t strike me with sickness or trial but He put amazing people in my life. The missionaries!

Someone gave me a book about the life of George Muller (a missionary in the 19^th century) …this book made me decide to go to a mission trip to Africa last November. Over there I saw missionaries in action. I came back with great zeal and read more about more missionaries: Sadhu Sunder Singh, Amy Carmichael, Correy Ten Boom, Lillian Trasher and the best of them all Brother Yun (the heavenly man) from China. These people shared their faith through their blood …they made me feel that I’m worldly, slothful, spoiled and cold spiritually! You can’t read their lives and continue to live the same way.

If you are like me (one year ago) living in your comfort zone, think that you are ok, not doing any thing extraordinary for God or even stagnant in you spiritual life I would encourage you to read their bios.

Thanks be to our gracious Lord who is long suffering and compassionate … He is so patient with us until we come back to our senses.

Definitely I felt God wants me to start this blog or else I wouldn’t have done it! It’s not about me it’s about His love for me that I want to share. God has blessed me with so many blessings in life that I always wanted to share but never knew how. Blog is the mean not the goal! Whatever He did with me I will share …whatever He puts in my life I will share. You better believe there is a ton; I don’t know even where to start!

Please pray for me that I can commit since this is time consuming as I heard.
