MY PAST, HIS GRACE, MY CALLING

The Untold Story of My Life with Jesus

By Prasanna Kumar

A REAL STORY. A FAITHFUL GOD. A PURPOSEFUL CALLING.

Can a life marked by addiction, broken relationships, fear, and uncertainty become a testimony of God's grace?

My Past, His Grace, My Calling is a deeply personal Christian testimony about a young man's journey from destructive choices to a life of faith, surrender, and service to Jesus Christ.

Growing up in a Hindu family, the author dreamed of a successful future and a government job. But smoking, alcohol, and drug use gradually pulled him away from his dreams. A frightening medical crisis forced him to confront his own weakness and the uncertainty of life. Through a life-changing spiritual experience, he began to discover the person of Jesus Christ and respond to what he believed was God's calling.

His decision came at a great personal cost. He left behind a promising career opportunity, faced separation from his family, and travelled to Kakinada with only ₹500. With no secure place to stay and little food to eat, he experienced loneliness, hunger, and moments of deep doubt. Yet unexpected kindness opened doors, and his journey into Christian ministry began.

As his ministry grew, he faced another frightening health crisis and continued praying through uncertainty. Meanwhile, the pain of being separated from his parents remained in his heart. For years, he prayed for reconciliation and hoped that his family would one day understand his faith. Their eventual return to his life became one of the most meaningful chapters of his testimony.

This is not a story of a perfect man or a life without suffering. It is a story about human weakness, difficult decisions, compassionate people, persistent prayer, and the hope found in Jesus Christ.

Inside this book, you will discover:

- The struggle to break free from destructive habits.
- A personal encounter that changed the direction of a life.
- The cost of following a calling despite uncertainty.
- The power of kindness when someone has almost nothing.
- Faith and courage in the face of frightening medical news.
- The pain of family separation and the hope of reconciliation.
- Lessons about humility, perseverance, and dependence on God's grace.

If you have ever felt lost, ashamed, rejected, broken, or uncertain about your future, this testimony invites you to keep seeking hope, accept help, and take the next faithful step.

Your past may be part of your story, but it does not have to be the final chapter.

My past. His grace. My calling.

All glory, honour, and praise belong to Jesus Christ.
