New Relationship with Jesus
"I received those booklets I requested from you. The message inside was clear and straightforward. When I was reading those booklets, I felt very good in the sense that God is real, and He is alive.

"It changed my life because when I was reading I felt guilt in some areas of my life. Then I confessed and repented. It has transformed my life into the new relationship with Jesus.

"It's my prayer that God of mercy and compassion will guard you through difficulties you may go through. God is there to protect you because you are telling people the truth, the gospel of Jesus Christ...."

Chose the Road to Life
"[I am] a devoted Christian. I once came across one of your interesting booklets, The Way to God. That booklet changed my life to a better life of a believer. As I was reading it, I felt like being filled with the Holy Spirit. Then I started to ask myself a question of choice. I chose the road to life which is Jesus Christ. He is the way to eternal life with God. So then I thought of writing to you to tell you how your booklet is important to me because of the truth it carries.

"Send me some of your booklets so that I can give to others who want to repent from their sins. I want to work...by spreading the Word of life and blessing to those who want it...."

"Big Sinner" Confesses
"I am very sorry to write and tell you that I am a big sinner. I am a boy of twenty years. The way I chased girls is not good. The thing is that both of our parents did not know anything about our friendship. The girl became pregnant, so we planned to abuse drugs to end the pregnancy, but the pregnancy did come. So the girl gave birth, but the child died. I became a drinker.

"One day I saw this booklet, Scripture Memory Book.... The thing which pushed me to read the booklet is [that it is] for all age groups, and I said to myself, ‘Let me read and see my age.' So I read, and then I have seen that all that I was doing was not good. So at that moment I gave myself to God."

A Booklet with Love Silences Cursing
"I do not have a car, so I ride the city bus. It certainly gives me many opportunities to share WMP booklets. The other day I was standing at a bus stop waiting for my connecting bus. There were three teenagers (two girls and a boy) also waiting. I was quite disgusted by the awful cursing that was spewing out of the mouths of the girls, so I silently asked the Lord what to do and say. Finally I went over to them and said, ‘Excuse me, I heard you using the Lord's name, so I'm sure you would like to have these Scriptures.'

"I handed all three of them Who Am I That a King Would Die in My Place? Then I turned aside for a moment. The girl who had been cursing the most sat there with her head down, reading the booklet, and I heard her say to her friend in a softer voice than she had been using, ‘Oh, I'm so embarrassed. That woman must be a Christian.' At that point I went back over and told her that I wasn't the issue, that Jesus was the one who deserved the apology. Their whole demeanor had changed, and I was able to witness to them and tell them how much Jesus loves them. Our conversation continued as we boarded the bus and almost all the way to town. They thanked me profusely for the booklets before they got off the bus."
