this is how i came to go to church and give my life to christ. a little history first, 29 male with a wonderful wife and a wonderful 17 month old son a true gift from god. i attended church as a kid but havent been since i was 14 years old, ok , there are people i work with who would talk to me all the time about going to church and being saved and i would just ignore them or walk away from them, i attended a friends wedding at a church one day and i felt drawed back to that church i just felt like i wanted to go back. we had talked about going to church when our son was older but that was it just talked. me and my wife had a horrible relationship neither of us was happy the only reason we were together was for our son, we fought all the time i shot pool alot so i was going to the bar almost everynight for tournaments and the league i didnt drink but still its a temptation filled atmosphere, so as i felt drawed back to the church we started going on a wednesday night and just by attending i felt a little better we still argued alot though just not as much, i had ask her if she wanted to be saved and she said she wasnt ready not knowing neither was i at the time, i was at the pool tournament one night and i just had a thought when my son gets a little older and ask my wife wheres daddy she will say at the bar, so then what will he do when he gets older go to the bar. so i slowed down on going then just 1 night a week, then on a sunday morning im in the nursery with my son and the whole sermon felt like it was just for me about a father or husband stepping up and taking control and the family will follow. there was a guy i knew a little bit in the audience and a thought just came to me and said if i go up to be saved david will go to. when the paster ask who wanted to be saved i was already on my way up and fell on my knees and ask for gods forgiveness and took jesus christ as my lord and savior, the guy i knew that was going up with me was only about 2 seconds behind me when i got to the alter. 2 more friends my mine also came to be saved and 1 was the person whos wedding i originally attended, there were 5 people came up to be saved that day the 5TH was my wife. since that time out marriage is completely different im talking about 180 degrees turnaround we have a great marriage its amazing what god can do for us when we accept jesus christ as our lord and savior. o and i know longer feel a need to go to the bars and have convinced several of my friends to attend church and have seen 1 of them saved and baptized so far and plan on seeing them all saved soon.

god bless us all
