Finding the David within: Testimonials from an International Student

Prolouge

Coming to Canada was a test of faith more than a test of my finances. Again and again, this line holds true for me from the moment I decided to make it my dream, my goal to come to Canada.

You see, although my journey is still ongoing and although the tests of faith is still ongoing, I felt that since I've completed one chapter of my story – the milestone of graduating as an International student, I felt that it's the perfect time for me to share my story, but above all the story of how God, with His infinite love, grace and mercy, was able to guide me through my journey to the finish line.

I know that not everyone may believe in the same God I believe in but that's alright. I am not here to force my belief to others but rather to share – so that those who may need to hear it, may hear it and those who need it the most may be blessed by it, somehow and in some way.

If there's one thing I've learned in my journey so far, it's this – sometimes it's not about the messenger but rather it is about the message which, more often than not, will reach the ears and hearts of the right person who was meant to hear it, right when they needed it the most. And sometimes, you just hear it but not really listen and connect to it at this very moment, but time will come when just when you needed to hear it again – you will remember that line, that quote, that anecdote or story – and it will resonate with you and it will bless you.

I hope these stories will bless you just as it has blessed me. And as always, if it changes you, share it. So others too may be blessed. It's the simplest way of paying it forward...of sharing the blessings, that others too may be blessed in so many ways... ♥

May God speak to you today through this story. Have a blessed life ♥
