“I’m so glad that I can wear sneakers without pain now!”
New Update
It happened in 2020. One day it looked like a thorn got stuck in the right middle toe and I looked into it closely. But nothing was found there. The pain got worse with the passing of time and later I couldn’t bear whenever my toes touched anything. ...
       
 
  
 

"Blessings are overflowing after I cast off useless worldly things and came to see only the Lord"

Brother Seongje Shin (12th grader)


When I was a 7th grader, I became a skilled wrestler with exceptional talent and I was a rising star after receiving prizes in Seoul Wrestling Competition and the National Wrestling Contest. I attended church in those days, but I hung around with friends and had attachment to the worldly things and increasingly distanced myself from my Christian life and studies.
In March, 2010, I entered high school. I felt troubled since I could not adapt to the environment that was much tougher than that of a middle school and also the life pattern in a school dorm. In the end, I took a leave of absence from school three months after the entering. In July, 2013, I attended Mini Divine Healing Crusade Dr. Jaerock Lee led for students after Sunday Evening Service.
He urged students not to be stained with the world full of sin and evil, but to love God, grow up pure, lead a diligent Christian life and study well. Also, he earnestly told us that there are definitely Heaven and Hell and we must not do anything that leads to Hell.
I was greatly moved by his word. A thought came. "I must not live anymore like I've done." I decided to renew myself. Afterwards, I came to hate the dorm life that was filled with drinking, smoking, and games. I stopped meeting with my girlfriend and made up my mind to live a life with my eyes on the Lord. To avoid the life of the dorm, I changed my specialty to judo.
In March, 2011, I transferred to Deokil Electronic Engineering High School that has its own judo team. From then, I was diligent in practicing, studying, and leading a Christian life. As a 10th grader, I took the first place in the school and received a scholarship. Practicing judo was difficult for me because my body was used to techniques of wresting, but I tried hard with patience.
In March, 2013, finally, I won in the 77kg class at the 29th Seoul Judo Association Presidential Competition and was elected as a student president in school. In May, 2013, to God's glory I was awarded a Good Conduct Award and scholarship from Seoul Southern Area District Attorney's Office.
I give thanks to the Lord who has blessed and led me to live in the Light as God's child.
