The Bright Heavenly Way

A friend of mine who i graduated with invited me about year ago to a Bazaar her Church (World Mission Society) was holding. I thought to myself "Awesome! Shopping and free food, sounds like a good deal." To be totally honest i've never seen soooo many people my age in one Church. Usually its my Grandparents friends and all they do after service is drink tea and play cards but this was totally different! AS i got to the Bazaar i knew it was special from far away I saw a stand filled with different kinds of bags but one in particular really caught my eye but as i was going to the stand i started to meet all the people from the Church. They were singing and putting on these really hilarious skits. I first i thought this has got to be rigged, I wonder what they pay them, or how many hours of community service this counts for? So I asked my friend and she just laughed. "O'k Kelly", I asked, "What's the catch? You and I don't hang out as much as before, your Church looks like our Univeristy Student Center except for the fact that I haven't seen one of them stop smiling!"



"Do you really want to know? Come with me downstairs and I'll show you the source of it all."




With an offer like that how could I resist. So i'm like highly skeptical, anxious, curious and nervous but i went. To my surprise Kelly leads me to a small room with a white board, a beautiful round wooden table, three cups of coffee and three Bibles awaiting us. I'd didn't look at the white board because I thought that it might just say "Welcome Alicia to Church of God World Mission Society." The whole situation just seemed so perfect.




Then one girl, maybe in her early twenties, who was in the room asked me do you have any questions about the Bible? I didn't want to ask and embares my friend but i could help it, this was my chance! "Are Adam and Eve really the first two people who walked this Earth?" There said it, and i felt so releaved. I never dared asked that question in my parents Church. "Great question" she said, " Let's look into the Bible for the answer." What! I was astonished she didn't throw me out, and I going to get an answer.


After learning the truth about the Tree of Life and Christ AhnSahngHong I couldn't contain myself. God Almighty has returned in the flesh to give the opportunity to go to the Kingdom of Heaven. Needless to say that very day I become a child of God, True God, our Father Christ Ahn Sahng Hong and Our Heavenly Mother New Jerusalem. All glory, thanks and praise be given unto them for all eternity.


What a day that was, and the funniest thing was i never ended up buying that bag i liked.
