North Africans in the Netherlands

Abdul had tried his entire life to be a good person, but still there was an emptiness inside of him. He said to himself many times, “Why am I not finding rest?” One day, he asked God to take his hand and show him the true path to Him. He began reading in the Book of John and came to know Jesus Christ not as an idea or a new religion, but as a living Person who is close and full of love. Then he felt for the first time that God was not far away when he read Matthew 11:28 (ESV): “Come to me, all who labor and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest.” Through coming to know Jesus, Abdul’s heart has been changed, and he has received a new hope even in difficult circumstances. Pray that Abdul will be a light among Muslims in his community and that he will share boldly what Christ has done for him.
