Years ago, when I started studying in an Adventist School, I was a little nervous. Everyone I met was so kind and smiling, but something must have been placed between me and them. Like a line with a "No Trespassing" sign. It occurred to me that they are distant because I am not SDA. Still, in time I made great friends. They taught me of their beliefs contrary to mine, yet I still listen. Others though, would mock me and say insulting words. Those times, I would come to God, crying while praying.
7 years have passed, and I've adapted their teachings. In those years, I tried going to their church on Sabbath, joined outreach and witnessed great sermons with great touching lessons. I then began to doubt the Christian denomination where I belong. I then started reading the Bible and asking questions.
Up to now, I hunger for the Word. I am thirsty of Jesus and I need to be filled with God's love through His Son, and the Holy Spirit. That is why I have chosen AUP, to improve and gain more knowledge of the Creator, who sent His only Son to die for us (John 3:16). I have proven to myself, and everyone that this school has molded me to a better individual, and always will. This institution has taught me to bring all the glory to God, and serve Him.
