I am a biomedical researcher by profession and I hold a PhD. I am currently a faculty in an university. I was brought up in a Christian orthodox family. I grew up in an environment surrounded by church-going believers. More than that, I was always on the stage whenever there was a gathering because I used to play guitar and keyboard. I was always wanted as a musician. I was so involved and a religious churchgoer. My parents were professionally school teachers but more than their profession, they loved doing “God’s work” ie, going to church, attending prayer meetings, organizing cottage prayer meetings, sharing God’s Word with neighbors, taking them to church and what not. The time they spent for God’s work was more than the time they spent on their jobs. So, having said that don’t you think I am a true Christian at least in their sense!. But then I had to move out of town for higher studies where I joined religious groups for the same reason, to play guitar or keyboard, even sometimes preaching. Sundays were the busiest day for me. Even my Dad did the same thing. He used to preach in small groups, cottage prayers meetings sometimes in the church. It was a big congregation in my hometown. This pattern of life gave me satisfaction since everybody said, I am doing God’s work. But then, when time came when I had to make decisions such as job, marriage, it all went wrong, not the way I liked it. But people said it must be God’s Will.
I started asking why would God do something that is not good for me. Even then the religious group had answers that He may have a different Will which you will understand later. That “Later”, I did not know when. I started thinking, applying my logical reasoning in understanding The Bible which led me in a different direction. My life started taking a U-turn. I literally started understanding what is God’s Will for the first time in my life. God’s guidance is one topic people teach and preach so much on. But nobody would understand properly. Most of the time, when they say it is God’s Will, it is their own will; not God’s. But, they would put it in a way as if it is God’s Will.
God has really taken me out of the pit where I was; ignorant. Now, I understand God better, His guidance better. This made me create this site with an intention to help the believers throughout the world.
