It took fire to purify us, what didnt burn is what remains

From where I was to where I am... This is my real life. True story.

I lost my dad to drug and alcohol addiction that lead to suicide.

I thought I was destined to do the same.

I felt abandoned and alone. No hope.

I started smoking pot and drinking alcohol at age 11.

I lived in a family of 5, but my home was always empty.

Started self-harm in 7th grade by cutting.

Found a place to "belong" with older friends that were into drinking, drugs, and sex.

Moved away from all my friends and depression increased.

Struggled with Porn, yeah guys dont only struggle with this.

Headed for Hell, and I didnt care.

AND THEN I MET JESUS CHRIST!

Now I have a dad through relationship with my perfect heavenly father.

I have a new destiny with Christ. The family curses end, and new legacy with Christ begins with me.

I am not alone. I have meaningful relationships through my church family. God have a plan for my future, so I have a hope.

I havent smoked or drank in over 4 years.

I have multiple places I can call home.

I havent cut in over 5 years.

I have a set of BEST FRIENDS that encourage me and help point me toward Christ.

I have freedom through Christ and forgiveness that I receive and give out.

I am living a life of purity as a lifestyle and not a line.

I headed to Heaven and Im taking as many people as I can with me!!!



This is the reason that I love my Jesus as I do. Even when I was lost and at my lowest of lows, he still loved me. Even when I couldnt care less about God, I was always on his mind. Even when I cursed his name and mocked him by living in sin and deserved to die, he took my place and died for me. He laid down his life for me.

I am not a religious person, I just love my God and I want to live my life for Him who gave His life for me.

I love my Jesus!
