Okay so here goes! Not alot of people know this and this is an easy way of getting my testimony out. First of all i grew up in church so ive always had that as mu background. So when I was about 19 I had my first car wreck! And honestly it was kinda bad I wish I could find the pictures of my car, but anyways! I totalled my car and in the wreck my head hit my window and I had a big goose egg and was slurring my words all day! I probably had a cuncusion but I never went to the hospital. I personally feel I had a gaurdian angel protecting me that day! It 'wasn't my time yet.' Then a few years later I got mixed in with the wrong crowd! The first time I drank I blacked out and couldn't remember anything... I was at this girls house and barely new her and her friend. So she called my friends cus she basically didn't care that I had alchohol poisoning and was throwing up everywhere and she just wanted me out of her house. So my friends come to get me and I was told when they got there I was lying on my back choking on my puke... Those girls didn't even look after me... But my good friend Casy pretty much saved my life! I was at a far standpoint from God at this point. Then about a year later I got really close to God! I was all-in and turned a complete 180 on life! Then I got mixed up with the with a church crowd that 'partied' so I started drinking again and smoking pot and popping pills. I basically turned my back on God... I had convinced myself that living the party life was my lifestyle and I only went to church because I didn't want to get slack from my parents... I was in a total dark place. Far from God... Wrapped up in sin... My family finally figured out what I was doing and surprised me with a meeting with my young adult pastor about six months ago! I was shocked at first! And angry at the same time... I didn't want to go. I convinced myself I was set in my ways... I had a taste of the good life and I didn't want to let go. but after the talk I realized my parents were only trying to help. So I slowly came to realize that what i was doing was indeed wrong and I had to stop! I need to make that 180 turn again before I ended up killing myself. Almost like that first night I started drinking. I look back on all this and can't believe how far away from God I was! And now I thank my family for turning me back around again onto the straight and narrow path! I don't want to turn back to my wicked ways. I wanna live my life for God! I personally feel that God placed me on this earth to make a difference in teenagers lives! To show them that life isn't all about having fun and living in the moment. It's about doing what's right no matter the cost! Because the wages of sin is death! And I've had came as close to that as possible I think without slipping away!
And to my parents, if your reading this I want to thank you so much for caring for me and setting a good example! I love you guys!
And to whoever may be reading this! May this be a light in your dark moments! May this be a testimony to shed insight on your future decisions! We all have choices! We all know right from wrong! It may feel good in the moment, but the consequences are far greater than you could ever imagine.
Thanks for reading!
