Well I was brought up in a high morals home not nescarrily a Christian home. ( My parents were former Christians) I was a chubby kid and got picked on, but one day a girlfriend of mine asked me to go to church and so I went aqnd got saved at a small town Southern Baptist Church. I was 13. I started serving the Lord but soon fell away. The next Summer I told G-d that if he would help me to lose weight that I would serve him with everythinmg I had. That summer I began to lose weight and at the end of the summer I had lost 80 pounds. I went back to school adn noone recognized me suddenly I started becoming one of the "popular kids" . I didn't forget my deal with G-d though and started to regualrly attend youth groupat the local Southern Baptist Chruch. from age 14 to 16 I attended this church and strived to become a leader. I was satisfied with G-d but had a lot of questions concerning the power of G-d. Why doesn't G-d still heal people? Where is the power today that G-d had in the Bible. I knew in my heart that there had to be more to G-d than just words. These questions went unanswered for many monthes, as I searched the bible and got no response from the youth minister at the church. Soon my parents started going to Living Word Ministries Church of G-d, and they got saved. MY dad not being the wisest person at the time. Was convinced that if I didn't go to church with them I would go to hell. So in an effort to appease my father I would visit this church they went to. I saw things there that I never knew were possible.
But I was convinced thatthe things that were goin on there were not Biblically sound. Then my Life completly changed during the spring break of my 10th grade year I broke with my girlfrind for 2 years. In am effort to let the situation die down, I went to my parents church for a week. I enjoyed it but out of rebellion I told my parents that i would never ever go back to the church. The next night the youth pastor at my parents church called me and was extremly nice and asked me if I had any questions. I began to ask him the questions that had been burning in me for so long. and for the first time he had answers. A week after I told my parents that I would never go to the church again, I began going to the church full time that was 5 years ago. I became a student leader, and then Became an armor bearer, and then when the youth pastor left and the assistant took over. I became the assistant Youth Pastor. Then a year later That youth PAstor left and I became the Youth Pastor. That was a year ago and Let me tell you this there is nothing better in this world than doing what G-d has called you to do.
I give all the Glory to G-d for what he ahs done in my life.
I Love You Lord
