My testimony is nothing spectacular. I was a good kid by the standards of society and the bad things I did do I never seemed to get caught for, yet those things were nowhere near as bad as the things most other kids I knew had done, so in my own eyes, I was still a good kid. Then, a year ago as of January 31st of 2004, I was invited to go on a trip with Club 121, a group of Christians in school trying to reach out to the unsaved population of the school. I, of course, really didn't know about any of that, I just had fun there so I went, although a lot of the stuff that they talked about interested me. After a lot of rough and tumble things trying to find a way simply to get up there, I was able to make my way there. And am I ever glad that God allowed me to go with this group. While I was there, a speaker that had been at our school to talk to us about drugs, a comedian, was there and without the limitations of the school, was allowed to talk freely about his faith. Between that and the effective witnessing of one individual who, in fact, was not even witnessing to me because she thought I was already saved, I came to a decision on the ride home to ask the Lord for forgiveness of my sins and asked Jesus to have a relationship with me. It was the first thing that had ever felt so entirely 100% right in my whole life, and it felt great. I had no clue as to what was making me feel so good at the time, but looking back, I can truly say that the Lord works miracles in our lives every day, even before we acknowledge that He's there.
May God bless you richly.
