Finding Christ: My Testimony of How Jesus is Always Working

Jesus is Always Working: A Journey of Faith

Looking back, when I wasn't a Christian but was nominally Buddhist, Jesus is Always Working became clear in my life. I realized that He brought me to Him through my husband. Jesus had been tugging at my heart all along, even if I didn’t know it. The seed wasn't planted until I met my husband, Brettan, who truly changed my path.

I remember it so clearly: it was August 2021, and I had a Bumble date in the South Bay area of CA. We were meeting at a beach. Never did I think I'd meet the love of my life and the one who grounds me in Christ on a dating app! Haha. I always wanted to find someone organically, face to face, but it turns out it was on an app! Anyway, back to the story. We had an amazing date walking the pier and chatting away about everything, from values and family to religion, politics, and hobbies. At that time, I wasn't a Christian. I was so confused, anxious, and nervous about religion. Based on media and culture, I thought being religious was such a bad thing.

Our first date went so well that we met up again the very next day! I knew there was something incredibly special about him. Fast forward to many wonderful dates later, I met his family, and I felt truly seen. They are the most loving, gracious, God-fearing family I've ever met. Their joy and faith in the Lord filled their souls, and I could feel that love, too. This was when Jesus is Always Working started to feel real to me. During our first Christmas together in 2021, we were at his family home, celebrating, when I received my first-ever Bible. And guess what? It was PINK, my favorite color! It was like a little sign that God was reaching out to me. I still read that Bible today, grateful for that soft and special gift.

That gift meant more than I knew at the time. My husband, then my boyfriend, expressed his love and care for my soul, telling me that he couldn’t lead me to Hell. He felt it was his duty to bring the Gospel to me. That was the most romantic thing I'd ever heard. I knew then that he was truly the one, even though I already felt that. This just confirmed it. We started discussing and reading the Bible together, although I wasn’t quite ready to accept Jesus just yet.

Over time, though, Jesus is Always Working kept proving true. Slowly, I began to notice small changes in myself. I was more open to talking about faith, asking questions, and contemplating the message of the Gospel. It was as if Jesus was nudging me gently, guiding me closer to Him without forcing anything. He was patient, giving me time to feel ready.

Months later, after many meaningful conversations and wonderful times together, I felt prepared to accept the Lord. I had sinned so much in my past, and the weight of that started to feel unbearable. I repented deeply, feeling the full weight of my actions. Although some things I’ve done still make me feel guilty, I strive to be like Him daily, knowing that Jesus is Always Working in my life. I realized that I was not perfect, but with His path over mine, I could be redeemed. My husband and I got married on May 21, 2022, in a small lakeside ceremony. It was one of the best days of my life, and Jesus is Always Working felt closer than ever.

Reflecting on it now, I can see how Jesus is Always Working through every stage of my journey. From the moment we met, to the thoughtful gift of that pink Bible, to our marriage, He has been at the center of it all. But the journey didn’t stop there. After our wedding, I made the decision to be baptized. In June of 2022, I publicly declared my faith at our local church, Calvary Church. It was one of the most meaningful days of my life, surrounded by my new church family, feeling their love and support. This was another reminder that Jesus is Always Working, continuously guiding me forward.

Being baptized marked a turning point for me. My perspective on life transformed completely. Where there was once uncertainty and doubt, I found peace, love, and strength in Jesus. He is my Savior, my rock, my love, my salvation, and my peace. Every day, I wake up knowing that Jesus is Always Working in my life, shaping me to be more like Him.

Out of gratitude for His love and grace, I felt inspired to create something that could reflect my faith. I’ve always had a passion for jewelry, and it seemed natural to blend that with my faith journey. I wanted to make pieces that carried PURPOSE, pieces that would remind people of Christ and His teachings. For instance, wearing a bracelet with "Be Still" inscribed on it can be a subtle yet powerful reminder of Psalms 46:10: "Be still, and know that I am God." These moments, when you reflect on God's Word, help to remind us that Jesus is Always Working in every situation.

I believe there is purpose in wearing these symbols, allowing us to carry reminders of His grace with us every day.
