But when I learned about the gospel this time it made me realize that in the past, I had not yet understood the true gospel. After I truly understood that our righteousness comes from believing in Jesus and not from my own good works, I have hope in him in my daily life.\u201d<\/em><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td><em><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignright wp-image-24615 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/friendsmission.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/Picture2.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"158\" height=\"233\" srcset=\"https:\/\/friendsmission.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/Picture2.jpg 158w, https:\/\/friendsmission.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/Picture2-8x12.jpg 8w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 158px) 100vw, 158px\" \/>\u201cI was born into a Christian family. In the past, I used to be unruly, selfish, and not listen to anyone. But then I came to learn the gospel, that Jesus died for me despite my sin which was great. And I understand that believing in Jesus is the only way to be saved and participate in the kingdom of God. Believing in the gospel has changed my life. It makes me not want to live in the same life by being selfish and not listening to anyone. I want to spend the rest of my life doing good things to give glory to him.\u201d<\/em><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<p><strong>Prayer Requests<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Pray for students who have obstacles, or problems with their family because they came to study the Bible rather than working for It has made their wives or husbands unhappy.
