We overcome by the blood of The Lamb, the word of our testimony, and by loving our lives not unto death!!
here is a real short version of my testimony.
One year ago today I graduated from the Teen Challenge Training Center in Reheresburg Pa. I have been saved for many years before that, but kept on backsliding, and being restored, and backsliding and being restored etc. etc. etc.
After being rescued from being homless on the streets of New York City and from the brink of suicide, I was eventually grounded in the Word and firmly (or so I thought) established in my local church. Thru a series of events, bought on by my own pride, I found muself again with a crack pipe in one hand, and no nothing in the other. I soon found myself in Teen Challenge, which is indeed a Challenge, although there are not many teens there, and I allowed Jesus to teach me how to die to myself and to begin to live for him. During my time there I was diagnosed with Cancer, Semenoma that is, and went thru the surgery and the follow up therapies, Soon after graduation , I was restored in my local church, blessed with a job at a Christian Retreat center, and now I have been raised up by Jesus to birth and head a street evangalism team. None of this has been done by my own ability, but by the grace and love of Jesus Christ.
AMEN!!!!
