Ok My testimony
Please feel free to give it to anyone you desire. if it makes one person
think for one second then it is well worth it

My family were christian, i was brought up with the church all around me,
but as is so often the way i never really realised the signifance of Jesus
in your life. I thought he was a very nice attachment to get you through a
few tricky spots. Not someone who to base your life upon. I'm very glad he
showed me different

I stopped going to church at 16. I never really had got involved, i always
knew Jesus was real, and helped when you prayed to Him. But I was sucked
into the world. I did the usual stuff worldly people do, just nothing
seriously bad.
I carried on with life until i found myself getting very depressed. I really
just could not handle all the struggles i was facing. Depression got worse
and worse, suddenly i was immensly bogged down with troubles, and a prisoner
to self-pity. At first i could control it, then it really started to control
me, i could not hide it, and the thought of getting away from society was a
fantastical one. So i tinkered with thoughts of suicide, at first to relieve
some of the pain i felt. Then things came to quite a focal point. After
feeling particulary down one day, i went to a friends family party. Where my
best friend betrayed me to some girl who had previously insulted me. I
remember driving along in my car with my best friend, we approached a turn
in the road, and i thought how what i would be like just not to turn.. i
told myself i would kill myself later on in the year, (my mind control my
negative thoughts that were not my own, in depression everything seems so
much worse than it really is).. make it look like an accident to try and
avoid even more pain. Then I said to Jesus.. ok i've had enough... please
please take me away from here.
A few weeks later.. out of the blue my Mum found a slip telling me about
voluntering in Israel
I went and i got right out of the world, and that situation. God cured all
my depression and doubts.. and i love him so dearly..

The moral of the story is.. everything else is meaningless, everything else
falls apart.. except for God.
I ask anyone reading this not to find this out the hard way.. if they do to
know that Jesus is always there for them. He does exist. He does love you.
He will help you if you sincerly ask him

Tim
