一人得救 全家得救
我信主巳有38年，在GK611教会成立之前就已经跟着牧师师母。
我是在一个拜偶像的家庭长大，自然而然就跟随着父母的信仰。 我完成学业两年之后，就认识了建昌並成为男女朋友。
当时我的姐姐已经信主，而且很火热，天天在店里放诗歌和传福音。当时我在姐姐点里工作，有一天当我到 '你真伟大' 这一首诗歌时，里面就神对神产生一种说不出的感动，我就这样信了主。那时很担心建昌会拦阻我信主，我就乘着他在台湾受军训，先斩后奏在信主之后到第三天就接受洗礼。因为神让我体会到祂是一位真神，是给我生命的神，这种体会不是用三言两言语可以说得清楚，是一种很真实感觉到祂的同在。
信主之后，我和建昌的关系真的面对许多冲突，他生气我不和他商量就接受主，而且受洗。但由于我们是真心彼此相爱，所以后来就有了一些协议，就是你信你的我、信我的，在信仰的事情上互不干涉。
过了一年后我们结婚，我嫁进他家才开始发现，不是你信你的、我信我的，那样简单，生活开始面对许多磨擦、挑战和人际关系的困难 。因为人都是属血气的，当时若不是有神的同在和真理的光照，指引教导我，使我的灵命长大成熟；又或者当时我是个不听从真理的人，真的很难想象，我的家庭会有怎样的后果。
神时常让我学习以爱、忍耐、包容、接纳、体恤建昌。神说：他和我家婆还不认识主，要我不住的为他们祷告祈求，不要看他们的不同和对立，而是要看他们是神眼中的宝贝。神常让我体会和明白祂的心意，就这样我的内心的辛苦、委屈和挣扎就消失了，并且能够续継靠神加给我的力量往前走。
在我的老二Aaron出世一个月后，发现他尿道发炎受细菌感染，经常发烧 ，进出医院很频密，每个月至少需要到医院一次，检查是否还有细菌存留。
为了让孩子得医治，这段时间建昌到处求、到处拜，甚至归依佛教，不只花费了不少钱，两年过去了都无济于事。这时我和建昌的关系变的很紧张，毕竟大家的信念很不同，做法也不同，我只能默默祷告，求神开路。
那时刚好有一位来自美国的牧师在新加坡带领医治特会，我就抱着孩子去参加。为孩子祷告祈求神医治。祷告过后，牧师从他的裤袋拿出一条手巾做祝福祷告，之后把手巾给我，并。叫我放在Aaron的枕头里，当时的我很单纯依牧师说的做了。
这时我想起《使徒行传 19:11 -12》也说过这样的事：“神藉保罗的手行了些非常的奇事，12 甚至有人从保罗身上拿手巾或围裙放在病人身上，病就退了，恶鬼也出去了。”
过了两个星期后，Aaron回去医院检查，结果发现尿道问题痊愈了，感谢神医治了Aaron。我也借这件事向建昌作见证，当时的他不以为然。我没有气馁，因为我看见神跡、看见希望，对神更加有信心。
从此我靠神和不断的一次又一次邀请建昌参加教会活动和特会，感谢主大多数他都应酬式的参与了。可能因为是看到孩子被医治了。在漫长的20年等侯和学习里，终于在神的时间建昌和我家婆都接续信了主，感谢主垂听了我的祷告，一切颂赞荣耀归給神。
我也感谢主允许我还在不明白真理时，让我和建昌在信仰不同时，赐我们在一起的恩典、让我学习我的生命成长的功课，也让建昌真实遇见神，谢谢天父。
虽然在过程中是很辛苦很煎熬，但现在看见建昌生命的改变、孩子健康成长、家婆的信主．这一切都有神美还的计划，虽然当时不明白。更感谢神赐我一颗认定敬畏祂的心，赐我力量继续跟随而没有放弃，我才有今日的美好见证。我要把一切荣耀归于天父。
One person saved, whole family saved
Testimony of Merene Tan
I have believed in the Lord for 38 years. Before GK611 was established, I was already following Pastor and Shi Mu.
I grew up in an idol worshipping family and naturally I followed my parent’s beliefs. 2 years after finishing my studies, I came to know Abraham and he became my boyfriend. At that time, my sister already believed in the Lord and was very fervent. Everyday, she turned on worship songs and shared the gospel in her shop. I was working in my sister’s shop that time. One day, when I heard the worship song ‘How great thou art’, my heart was deeply touched by God and I believed in the Lord.
At that time, I worried that Abraham would prevent me from believing in the Lord. I took advantage of his absence when he was having military training in Taiwan to be baptised. This was because God made me realised that He is the true God, the God who gives me life. This realization cannot be clearly described by words, it is a true feeling of His presence.
After believing in the Lord, Abraham and I had a lot of arguments. He was angry with me for not discussing with him before accepting the Lord and be baptised. But since, we truly loved each other, we came to an agreement that each of us can have their own faith and we do not interfere in matters relating to each other’s faith.
We were married one year later and after I moved into his house then I realized it was not as easy as it seems to have different faith. We started to face a lot of conflicts, challenges and difficulties in interpersonal relationship. This is because human is of the fresh.
If there were not the presence of God, the enlightenment of truth which led me and guided me, so that my spiritual life grew and matured, or if I was a person who do not obey the truth, it would be really hard to imagine the consequences of my family.
God always allowed me to learn to use love, patient, tolerant to accept and understand Abraham. God said, “He and my mother in law have not believed in the Lord, He wanted me to keep praying for them, do not look at their differences and opposed them. But to look at them as precious in God’s eye. God often let me realised and understood His will which caused the pain in my heart and my struggles to disappear. Furthermore, I can rely on God’s strength to move on.
One month after my son, Aaron, was born, it was diagnosed that his urinary tract was infected with bacteria that caused him to run a fever frequently, he was in and out of hospital very often. We had to bring him to the hospital every month to check if there were bacteria remaining.
In order to heal our son, Abraham seek help everywhere, he even dedicated himself to Buddhist. He spent a lot of money and after two years nothing changed. At that time, my relationship with Abraham was very tense because had different faith and different ways of doing things. I could only quietly prayed and asked God to open a way.
At that time, a pastor from the United States was holding a healing conference in Singapore. So, I brought my son to attend and asked the pastor to pray over him for God’s healing.
After the prayer, the pastor took a handkerchief from his pocket and handed to me, He asked me to put the handkerchief under Aaron’s pillow. I obeyed and followed the pastor’s instruction.
Now that I remembered Acts 19: 11-12 also mentioned this “ 11 God did extraordinary miracles through Paul, 12 so that even handkerchiefs and aprons that had touched him were taken to the sick, and their illnesses were cured and the evil spirits left them.” Two weeks later, Aaron went to the hospital for a medical check-up and found that he was completely healed from the urinary infectious. Thank God for healing Aaron. I took this opportunity to testify before Abraham but he did not acknowledge. I was not discouraged because I saw the miracles, the hope and I have more faith in God.
Since then, I relied on God and kept inviting Abraham to attend the church’s activities and special meetings. Thank God that he entertained me by attending most of the church events. It was probably because he saw our son was healed. After a prolong period of 20 years of waiting and learning, finally Abraham and my mother-in-law believed and accepted the Lord in God’s timing. I thank the Lord for listening to my prayer. All praise and glory go to God.
I was thankful to the Lord for allowing me while I still did not understand the truth, when I was having different faith with Abraham, gave us the grace to be together, let me learned the lessons of growing up and let Abraham truly met God. Thank you, Heavenly Father.
Although the process was very exhausting and tormenting but now that I see the changes in Abraham’s life , my children grew up healthily and my mother-in-law believed in the Lord, I realized all these were the wonderful plan of God although I did not know at that point of time.
I thank God even more for giving me a heart that acknowledge and fear Him, giving me the strength to continue following and not give up. I want to give all the glory to God.
