Hello all, I am new to the site and a realviely new believer...of sorts. I was rasied in a home in which the names Jesus and God were not really mentioned, and if by chance they were it was not such a nice thing. My brother and I had pretty rough childhoods and were never givein the chance to know Jesus. Through this though I had a sense that there was more to life...something bigger than me and the world.
I have been married for almost two years now to a life long believer and with her patience love and support I have slowly become more comfortable asking the questions that I have always had. In the last 5 months I have become an active Christian seeking out the truth in life that lies within Christ's name. One month ago I was baptized and born anew. I have gained a sense of peace and purpose never before felt in my previous life, and now understand how I was so lost for so long. I am now in the process of learning how to to use my new found faith to forgive.
My life has had many ups and downs..more downs than ups I am affraid and I need to come to terms with that...I need to take all of the things that were done to me and the things that I have done to the foot of the cross and lay them there. It is has already been a hard job and there is still so much to do, but I know with the love and support of my family and most importantly of Jesus Christ I will learn to forgive and become more the man that God has made of me.
Thanks you for reading this...I am very excited about this site and all there is to do and learn...Have a great day!!!
