My name is Prakash Tamang. I was born on 6th April 1992 in Ree-8 Tawal, Dhading Nepal in a Buddhist family. It was a very remote and mountainous area, rounded by mountains and thick forest area. There are nine family members in my family. I am the fifth child. My family was a very poor family in my village. Everyone used to know that my family is a very poor family. Because we don’t have any land and house my Mother had been built hurt and we used to live there. Because my father used to drink alcohol too much he never cared about family but always scolded us. 

However, he earns what he uses for his drinking so there were many problems in my family. As a result, my mother suffered from a mental problem. Every villager considers that my Mother is a mad woman she never can heal. We made many plans to treat my mother. Even many times we took in witchcraft but could not heal. Almost all our wealth had been finished in treatment. We were very serious, none there to help my family. We were hopeless. But once upon a time a pastor came to my home and prayed for my mother and gave counsel to my family. This process was continuing, as a result my mother used to heal day by day. And I also used to go to Church with my mother when I was 6 years old. Thus my mother almost healed but sometimes used to suffer from that problem. When that problem came she had to wash her body with water. When we went to church our neighbors also started to persecute us. They said to us you must leave Christianity because none are Christian from our tribe, but we never gave up our faith in Jesus Christ. But they used to persecute us, but we used to take that as our joy in Christ. When I was growing spiritually as physically and I used to study the word of God day by day then the Holy-spirit started to lead my life. Then I became a worship leader in my Church (Village Tawal) . At that time I was studying in class 8. There were many financial problems for my study but I used to do hard labor then used to pay fees and buy my pen and note copies.. Some time ago I used to think that I am a very unlucky person because I must work hard but my friends’ conditions are not like mine, but on the other hand God used to tell me that Son you are doing good , keep your faith I will make you strong. This suffering is just for a few days. When time will come you will rejoice in the Lord. Then I remembered the word of God in (Romans 8:18). Then I thanked the Lord. Slowly by hard work, I passed my S.L.C . (school level certificate).

Then I decided that I have to earn money to fulfill my family’s needs. Because all people’s houses are very big and very good but we have just a small hut when it flies by air we do not know. So by seeing my physical condition I ought to go foreign land to earn money. But my other heart said that no you do not do this you are chosen person from your tribe you must serve to God and have to bring your neighbors in Christ. And my mother also said to me God has healed me so that whatever our condition you do not worry but you must carry the cross and serve to Him. Through my mother’s encouragement also my heart grew towards serving the lord.

Story of my life as a Christian

During my past life I felt thankful to the Lord for being a follower of Lord Jesus Christ. There were lots of problems and difficulties in my life. There were so many needs in my life which I could not fulfill in my life but when I came to Christ and during my ministry it became my joy to the Lord forsake of His glory. In secular perspective I feel myself as an unlucky person but in Christ I feel myself as a precious person in Christ. However Christ revealed upon me personally and through many experiences, I am feeling now that God is the one who can fulfill my needs and all my needed things. Most of the time I found Jesus Christ as my provider and manager of my personal life. While conducting with the people as practically somehow how to impact them without godly character cannot impact them in Christ so being Christian is better than living Godly Christian life. I am so happy to be in Christ because every time of Hardship he has become my fulfiller and counselor. So these all things compel me to praise Him. The most important thing is Christ centered behavior to others that never harms others and the people will seek that kind of conduct from the Christianity. In my personal experience of Christian life there were lots of crucial things in my life. Sometimes I went through many lakhs, sufferings, depression but all the time Jesus Christ became my friend to understand everything. The suffering, pain, needs, lacks, blames from others is a part of Christian life but on the other hand the eternal life and crown is the most hidden and important mystery of the real Christian life. So no matter about the present physical conditions but important matter is related to the spiritual and eschatological glory of God (Romans 8:18).
