my testimony:
i was raised in church. i was taught to take a dollar to sunday school and sing when the choir sang. i was taught to bless my meals and respect my elders. when i was 4 year old i got "saved". being 4, how was i supposed to know what i was doing? i never fully understood what serving God, or being on fire for God, really meant. at the age of 13, i began slowly slipping away from my Christian background. i began cussing and i had thoughts of suicide and overdosed once. then on december 6, 2003 i met a guy on the internet named joseph. coincidence? i think not. he introduced me to the real meaning of being a Christian. months later, i began slipping away. it was like a cycle. i would slide back, then go running to God. eventually, i got to the point where i cussed, smoked, drank, slit my wrists, and overdosed 2 more times. i knew something was missing. i even knew what it was. but still, i couldnt seem to grasp the idea that i needed God. i became a horrible person. not caring about anyone, not caring about God, not caring about myself. then on December 31, 2004 i went to Hargis retreat with my youth group, along with 2 other churches. we had service just before midnight. something clicked in my mind, and in my heart. i desperately needed God. at midnight i got on my knees and prayed for forgiveness. i had demons inside of me. not the kind that scream and go crazy. i had demons that tried to make me depressed, that tried to make me lie and be the horrible person i was. at midnight, i felt them coming out of me. i felt myself be FREE for the first time in a long time. i will not slip away again. i will not be the person the devil wants me to be, the person i used to be. i will be a witness to those who do not know Christ. i will be a servant for my God. i will go where he wants me to go. i will be who he wants me to be. i am a full blown, on fire for God, Christian. i will not give into temptation. no turning back. no more smoking. no more drinking. no more drugs. no more depression. no more suicidal thoughts. i will be a proud witness and servant for Jesus Christ.
