My Story

So like I have said before, I'm a Christain and this is my story. I was raised in the church and I knew what I was supose to do and not supose to do. I knew i needed to be baptised but when I was, I don't think I truely understood the full magnitude of the choice I made. I feel that at church camp whas where I truely made my choice to follow Christ fully. Now at this time I was in about 5th grade. I was baptized but I really didn't change my life style. Now i wasn't a bad kid, but I also wasn't living the life I should have been. As I got older, I started making choices that still haunt me today. One of them was to start cussing and I am still fighting it. I knew it was wrong but I didn't care. I felt cool. As i got to jr high I started acting worse, I made choices that were very wrong and still get to me today. As I go on, I see how God was there the whole time. I knew I was doing wrong and I also knew that I needed to change but I didn't want to. Then, freshemen year, I met my amazing girl friend, Martaysha. She has been an amazing help in getting me back on track. She holds me acountable for everything and anything. I would be lost without her. Now here is the kicker. I met her in 5th grade and I had a crush on her. Now she is my girl friend. I don't know about you but I see God there. She showed me how to face my past. She showed me that I am more then the mistakes I have made. She has been such a key player in me staying on track. Then there is Mommy #2 Missy, my gf's mom. She has Inspired me to be so much stronger and she has been with me every step since i started dating Martaysha. They have both been so much help and I wouldn't trade them for the world. but in about febuary we broke up for a few months and I became a mess again. I started falling back on the old habits I had and it took me untill church camp to get my head on staright. This year we did a Cross Walk. we were in our small groops and we made a cross and we carried it from station to station. one of them, was a station where we had to face our sins. we wrote them on a peice of cloth which we draped over the cross. When I was carring the cross i started crying, I couldn't hold it in anymore. I knew that I was lost and I knew i needed help. That night after the cross walk I made a choice to give my life back to Christ. I said I have messed up and I'm not who I need to be for your use. I herd something and it said, You have returned and will be used well, my child. I only know that Christ has made me the man I am today and I owe him everything for the choice he made on that cross for my sins. I am blessed with family and friends, who suport me in my time of need and if I need help I can call them and have them there fast. This is how I came, left, and came back to Christ. If you have a story, coment I would love to see it. If you are thinking about a relationship with Christ, but aren't sure where to start. Leave a comment or a message, I would be more then happy to talk to you. I hope this has inspired someone to make a choice. "You are more then the sum of your past mistakes. You have been remade."
