As much as I know that many will not understand a single word of this post, I know that many more will understand and rejoice.
On Monday, March 21st, I was saved. And by saved I mean not going to hell for all of eternity. God has taken away my bitterness, my anger, my doubt, my fear and most importantly my undue pride. Pride is not altogether bad, but as we are flawed... it can be. I have come to understand that I am nothing without God. All of my abilities are from him. Many of you will laugh at this, but I truly understand. And come on, if anything can take away all of MY bitterness and anger, that has got to impress someone. I feel like a different person, I don't swear, I conduct myself better, I am in control of my sexual urges, it's amazing. The power of God is truly awesome.
All of the darkness that made up who I was, is gone... taken by God. My best friend Jordan is coming home from Florida so we can go to church together. Church, folks! I've been so foolish, so blind and angry, how ridiculous, hahaha. But even better is that none of it matters, the amount of forgiveness from God is infinite. I felt first the ultimate shame when I realized all of the aweful things I've done against God. Then I felt the love from Him, that was amazing. Now I understand that Christians are not BOUND into a life of servitude, they feel no OBLIGATION to serve, but once you find the truth, you realize that you have no desire but to serve. It is amazing, you want your every action to be done in praise.... so hard to explain, we'll work on it!
Keep the faith folks!
