Here I Am, God, Use Me.

My gap year from God lasted much longer than a year. I'm ready now to step away from the world in which I never truly belonged and to give 'me' up to become something so much better in Him. I'm excited and enthusiastic to witness everything.

I've come from a place where suicidal thoughts were the highlight of the day and sleeping was a life goal. I filled my existence with distractions of secular
television, films, music and hanging off of every word my favourite pagan YouTuber's uttered. It got to a point where I just couldn't do it anymore.
The emptiness.
No purpose.
Having pushed everyone else away and finally feeling not just lonely but alone.

I had several chips on my shoulder and I wasn't dealing with any of them. I'd run out of places to hide.
One night I just acknowledged that something had to change and I called out to my Holy brother, Jesus.

I don't want to be on my own anymore.
I want to change.
I need your help.
I want to live.
What do I need to do?

My heart was opened.
My prayers were answered.
My journey begins.
