isnt amazing how quickly that one should turn from their savior and do exactly the thing He knew we would. Yet, He forgives, this week I had an opportunity to be on TV sharing my "expert opinions" on youth culture and the struggles that teens are facing in these times. I thought I had some interesting things to say, but then the host asked me "what were you like as a teenager?" I got to share my testimony not knowing exactly who would be watching. as it turns out there were a ton of people watching, people who knew me as a "piss tank" "druggie" and the list would go on. After the show about 6-8 of my peers when I was a teen got together and talked about me being on TV and debated about how bad of a guy I was. For those who didnt see the show, could not believe that I was now living for Christ... To be honest I went into that show thinking so highly of myself and now since hearing about this news from old friends I realize I have nothing to brag about but what Christ has done. He grace finds me in my pride and strips me of my own honor. I am realizing now how selfish, and proud I am. Jesus forgive me, not for the sake of being forgiven but that I might change and be renewed.
