First off I would like to say i hope this encourages someone and also if you are going through this if you would like to talk to me I am here to listen and help
.
I was born and raised in Church (as a Southern Baptist) Everytime the doors was open my parents,brother and me was there. Well at the age of 15 my parents separated due to unfaithfulness. My life was a rollercoaster from that point. Everyone I knew took sides on who was right and who was wrong. I would hear ppl talk about my parents and such that really hurt me. I prayed to God and things just got worse. I tried to make everyone happy. The church I was attending at that time was really no help at all they basically just said you will be ok but that was farther from the truth in my eyes anyways.Everything i tried to do to make everyone happy left me on a rollercoaster that would never end because I was worried about other ppl instead of dealing with what I already had my plate. As things went on my faith in God was finally slipping as way and I knew God knew it as well and I was almost to my breaking point as well. God lead me to a non-denominational church that he lead my mom to months before. After getting use to the change from being a Southern Baptist to getting used to this church the people actually listened what I had to say and they prayed for me and help through the tough times as well.Then one day I felt Gods presence in a song that I knew he was there and wasn't going to give up on me. The song was by Chris Willis and the Title is You have my Word. I cryed during that song and I realized I had prayed to God but not surrendered it to God. So basically I was laying it back down and picking it back up again. That song to me saved my faith and belief and trust in God. I am hear to tell you w/o Jesus there all troubles and trials are gonna be like a rollercoaster but if you put your Faith in Him he will never let you go and never let you down. If you are unsaved and is going through this I encourage you to let Jesus be Lord of your life because he can make that rollercoaster stop if you let him. If you would like to ask Jesus to come into your life and you want someone to pray for ya I am sure anyone here will and I will as well.
Prayer Request: Please pray that God will help me get closer to him than I have never been before and also show me for what he wants me to do and also what he has instore for me as well. Because I am still healing from this but I know God is always there.
