Welcome to the Soup Kitchen! We, the staff, will be willing to help you in your quests and dreams of fulfilling your ultimate recipe. It may be our first time, but we’ll try our best to suit your own taste. Why are we doing this? Because we want to help others fulfill their needs. We know for a fact that questing is a very hard thing to do. Why? Because we’ve tried it too. Know what? Sometimes we do fail, and our patience can’t handle anymore waiting for that special item. That gives us a second point on why are we doing this. So this like a hope point if you’re feeling down and hopeless. We ourselves are not that wealthy in gold, but we are willing to give.

We, the staff are pure born again Christians. So we decided to save a little space to tell about our walk with God.

Aerica: ‘Sometimes he seems so far…’
Being is a Christian is different. Having friends in school and other places is really hard. My relationship with God is always my first in my life. As a Christian life becomes harder but in the end joy still sparks up. Before I got saved I was a total fake. I faked being a Christian; I faked being myself…I always thought I was saved. But I wasn’t, I’m going straight to hell. So the time I stepped in American ground, the first time I stepped in that church I always trusted, I broke down and repented. Seeing my life now it’s totally different. Sometimes I called on him in problems; my heart thinks he’s so far. In the end, he was there. Call on him, whatever happens he’ll be there. Anytime, anywhere.

Forgiven
I don’t want to make this a long or boring thing. I’ll keep it short and simple. Before I became a born again Christian, I thought I was pretty good. I’ve always worked hard in school, I get along with my family, I would never smoke, get into drugs, or drink, so I thought I was a good person. But there was always emptiness in my heart that nothing could fill---not material items, boyfriends, sports, etc. I hated going to church, I just went through all the religious motions, sang Amazing Grace, and did everything else they do at church. But about a year and a half ago, I actually paid attention to a sermon && God really convicted my heart. So I got saved! I repented of my sins and accepted Jesus Christ into my heart as my Lord and Savior. My life has never been the same since. My relationship with God grows everyday through prayer, reading the Bible, going to church, fellowship with other Christians, etc. I really learned that it doesn’t matter what kind of life you have—if you’re living a good life or if your life is messed up…God will accept you & change your life forever. All it takes is a simple prayer and a life of dedication—not dead religion. God sent His Son Jesus Christ to die on the cross for our sins over 2000 years ago, because he loves us so much. Jesus needed to be the perfect sacrifice, so that we can be saved. I want to tell you guys that Jesus is the only way to heaven, not good works or anything else. Those who die without a relationship with God will be bound for hell.

Angel:
Okay, this is what I was before and after I got saved. Before I became a true Christian, I was your average and normal girl. I just went to church because my parents told me to. At services, I just slept, ate, played, read books, or talked to my neighbors. I didn’t really mind anything the pastor said. I thought that since I was a good person that was enough. I always got good grades, I’ve never hurt anyone physically, never took drugs, never smoked, never drank. I thought I would make it to heaven. But as I grew older, I started to have more of a hard life. I started to cuss, looked for love in the wrong places, began to be rebellious, and started to do very bad things. I always felt an emptiness in my heart that I can never seem to fill. I always felt depressed and hopeless. But thankfully, my parents still brought me to church. One service, the preaching really touched me, and so I gave my life to Christ. After I prayed a prayer, I could feel this excitement rise. I felt so clean and happy. I was changed. I was never the same person and no longer did the things I did before. I learned that God’s love was the only answer that could solve my problems. I just recently joined our church’s youth group. Now, I am all fired up for God. God can change you and help you in your darkest times. He will never leave nor forsake you. He died for you and me. Accept His love offering. If you do, you’ll never feel the same way again. You’ll be saved from hell.

Gaia:
Hello. This is my testimony. Before I was a Christian, I rebelled against my parents a lot. I had this empty feeling that I thought I couldn’t fill. My life was always the same: Go to school, go home, eat, and sleep. I thought the best life was on earth, but it isn’t. Like others, I thought the way to go to heaven was to be good only & to be nice. I did a lot of bad things, and I thought it was alright & that I would get away with it. My parents took me to church. The pastor preached a convicting sermon. I prayed a prayer by myself. Then I felt REAL joy & happiness, something you can’t get from someone else. I was changed, I was never the same person as before. God can change everybody, no matter how bad you are. He died for you & me. =]
