Hello,
Throughout my life I have experienced things that at the beginning I didn't know how or why they were happening. I want to start with I was borned and raised in a Christian family. I would go to church every time but just because my family did too. I had no idea of what it was to be a Christian or the plans God had for me. In my late teens my life turned around. I stopped seeking God things got out of control. I started drinking and occasionally doing drugs. I met the most terrible people. They hurt me so much, but I would feel lonely and depressed that I would do anything just to feel "loved" by someone... By anybody. I started going to clubs, and looking for "happiness" in the wrong places. My life was empty. I would cry everyday. My life had no meaning. On the inside, I knew I didn't want to live like that, but I didn't know how to escape. When I turned 25 I started seeking God because I just couldn't take it anymore. I asked him to take away those things that made me empty and sad and to fill me with His love. The person I was in a relationship at that time was abusive and stole money from me. That person disappeared from my life one night at 3 am sent me a message and said bye. I thought that was gonna be a terrible situation of depression like the previous times when people would leave me, but I was surprised when instead of sadness, I felt relief. I knew it was God answering my prayers. I never saw that person again and lost all the " friends" I used to drink and get drunk with. I was "alone"... But I didn't feel alone. I knew the presence of Jesus was with me. I heard a Christia song called "keep making me" and I immediately broke down and asked God for forgiveness because I knew the things I was doing were wrong and that wasnt the plan He had for me. I quit drinking and doing those bad things, and continued praying and started listening to a Christian radio station every day. I even donated money to help the christian community, and the best of all... I got baptized in the name of Jesus and borned again. God gave me a new life! An awesome job where I found an incredible friend who I can share my faith with. I also met my current boyfriend who is a believer. We go to church together and pray together. I am 30 years old now and of course my life is definitely not perfect, because there's still problems in life, but I now know that I'm not alone and that God has control. He goes before me and fights any problems I encounter. Sometimes I feel anxious because devil is attacking my mind, but I know who is with my now and that He is greater than anything. I know God is not done yet with me and I look forward to seeing what He has in store for me. I pray my saviour to give me strength and fullfills me with His love to continue serving Him. In the name of Jesus I am more than conquer! Amen!
