This property was reserved by rocketscientist I'm 49 years old, from California, USA. JPL UCHRISTIANU NEWSLETTER JULY 1996 ISSUE #103 TESTIMONY By Paul Kovatch At 29 years of age I was a millionaire. I owned 30 apartment units, 2 restaurants, a large, 10-room home with pool, 3 cars, a motor home, land in 3 states and 2 countries, gold and silver coins, mutual funds and the list goes on and on. I considered myself pretty "religious" and self-righteous. I was raised a Catholic and went to church every Sunday and believed I was doing what God wanted me to do. If I fell, all I had to do was ask God to forgive me and I could do it all over again and again. I found that all of my decisions, no matter how small, were always "how much money will I make?" or "How much will it cost?" I worked 3 jobs and was completing my Masters degree in business. Needless to say, my family suffered. I was never home; my life was so full of stress that I searched for companionship outside of the marriage. While I thought I was blessed by God; it now looks like it was a curse from the Devil. All that I really valued (wife, children, health and happiness) was lost. My Soul was dead. My compassion was only for what people might think not what God would think. I was up to 4 six-packs a day while enticing waitresses with money. When I went through a divorce, which prompted a bankruptcy, I was considering suicide because I had lost all of my material wealth. People who were my "friends" when I had money didn't come around; but many were quick to laugh at my failures. A stranger came to my house one evening while I was drinking, smoking and watching TV. He was from a local church and wanted to talk about the Bible. I had never read the Bible before, at least not for it's teachings on life now and eternal. I offered him a beer (which wasn't too smart) and he started to share the "Word of God" with me. I never felt so much peace in my life as I did when I "believed" that Jesus loved me so much that He died for me. 'My' sins put Him on the cross and He loved me so much that He had to show me His love. I finally realized that I was a better person without all those worldly things. I came into this world with nothing and I will leave with nothing. I can truly say that I am "Born Again" and Jesus is Lord of my life. I work for an employer who is bigger than AlliedSignal, JPL and the U.S. Government put together. My mission is to collect souls for Christ and the real purpose in life is to glorify God in everything. **************************** FELLOWSHIP ON LAB AND ENCOURAGE ONE ANOTHER | |||||||||||||||||||||||
