My Story

Starting in sixth grade I did bad things, hung out with the wrong people, and said the wrong things. I lusted over girls more that I could ever imagine. I cussed like a pirate and gossiped up the hills. I had no respect for adults and was not willing to understand or appreciate them. I was a big ole' highway to hell. I was nothing but another average piece of garbage that was heading towards a life or regrets and an eternal life in the firey pits of Hell. In January of seventh grade, I started attending Newspring's Fuse services on wednesday. I felt uncomfortable and didn't even pay attention to way they had to say. I was with my friend who had started there as well and we both destracted people. Brad would talk and talk and I would text on my phone and talk to my friend. I liked the music and that was about all. I never understood the message the music was playing but I liked it. I continued going and started listening more and paying attention. By the time we were moving into the new building, I was accually attending the service weekly and understanding what was being said. March 28, 2009, somewhere between 6:30 and 8:00 God touched me and told me I was needed in Heaven. He pounded on me to come to him, become a member of Heaven. Clayten King was preaching that night and he pumped me up. I was about to go crazy if I didn't hurry up and accept Jesus right then and there. I knew I was going to do it and it was driving me crazy. When he finally offered the invatation, I immediately stood up. He told us to say this, "Jesus, you are my savior, I believe you died on the cross and saved me." Every one of those words I meant, I do mean, and I will always mean. Over the summer I went to Gauntlet and was moved by God tremendously. Now I am in a small group with Trey Burns and Tyler Morey. Those guys are awesome and have helped me a lot. I have stopped hanging out with the wrong friends, doing the wrong things, and talking the wrong ways. I am a man of God and will not see my friends parish. I have a good many of friends that aren't saved, and havn't ever tried, "church". I believe that everyone has their duty in life and that God puts it in you. My duty is to help my friends. The leader of my school and risk my friendship with friends to save them from burning in Hell. So my story stands, unbroken with a sea of trust and faith. I have God in me and that will never change. My desire are big and will challenge me and I must strive to acomplish these tasks. In the bible it says "Three things will last forever, faith, hope, and love. The greatest of these is love." Corinthians 13:13. So I will love my teachers, my family, my friends, my enimies, and savior, my everything with all I can.
