My Personal Testimony Of Faith

I have lived a hard life, I was dealt a losing hand in regards to fate and destiny... at least in the eyes of the world.
I grew up in a project lower class living complex and was raised by my sickly mother who was a true hero to me. She was a strong woman of faith who prayed earnestly for her own salvation in Jesus Christ and for my following in the Way of Truth. She battled cancer on and off my whole life until I turned 19 and she passed away. To my own shame I was ending a short sentence in the House of correction when I was a young foolish kid and I was released a week before my mom passed and I thank God I got to spend her last few days with her. Until her last breath she prayed to Jesus and wanted nothing but the best for me. She just wanted to know I was alright before she passed. Just writing this brings tears to my eyes. Needless to say the first 18 years of my life were in vain. All I learned was how to be good for nothing living a life style of drugs and crime. Spending my days running from the law and in juvenile lock up. I am proud to say I have been out of jail for 11 years now and I have no intentions of going back. I give all the glory to Jesus for saving me and having a genuine relationship with him. Following His Word truly changed my life and got me on a right path for once in my life. It has taught me to be a man and work hard, do what is good and away with the bad. I am far from perfect I am a sinner saved by grace. I have much to learn and a lot more growing up to do. I take it day by day and strive to do what is right. I am blessed with a beautiful son who is to be born in a few months. His name will be Noah. A beautiful baby boy who will be raised by me and my wife who is an amazing woman of God and I am truly blessed with all my heart that she will be the mother of our child the Lord has blessed us with. There are many obstacles currently in my path I must overcome by the Strength only The Lord provides. He opens and closes the doors that need to be opened and shut. But when all is said and done I can truly say that without Jesus in my life I would be a dead man and nothing good would come of it. Jesus and my Heavenly Father only through your grace have I stood all these years and I thank you and love you for leading me and guiding me. I love your Word and adore the things of God. Please continue to strengthen my heart mind and soul and deliver me from any be setting sin and evil that may come and try to over take me. Mold me into your image and may I have a stronger relationship with you. I love you Jesus ......

Lord remember that we are but dust. Send your Spirit wake up your people. Save the lost,  send forth Labourers into the harvest. Use me Lord, Mold me, change me....

In His precious name I pray... amen
