"He reached down from on high and took hold of me; He drew me out of deep waters. He brought me out into a spacious place; He rescued me because He delighted in me." 2 Samuel 22:17 & 20
As the "deep waters" of the homosexual/drug lifestyle threatened to swallow me up, the Lord looked down and decided to have mercy on yet another wayward child.
At 13 I accepted Christ into my life at VBS. I knew that I was going to Heaven, but I also knew I was having homosexual thoughts and feelings. I eventually began acting on these feelings. I was so confused and hurting inside, I turned to anyone I could for answers. Little did I know that only God had the answers I was looking for.
At 16, I started using marijuana, which in turn led to other drugs. In March of 98 I tried to commit suicide. The pain was way too real. Yet even through that, I didn't get where I needed to be in my relationship with God.
Finally, in October of 00, I went to church with my mom and sister. There the conviction of the Holy Ghost came upon me until all I could do was weep and run to the altar. I screamed and the Spirit interceded for me, until God and I got some things straight (no pun intended).
Now, I'm Spirit filled and God's call on my life is more real than ever before. I just praise His name for His awesome life-changing ability. "for God's gifts and His call are irrevocable" Romans 11:29. "And those He predestined, He also called; those He called He also justified; those He justified, He also glorified." Romans 8:30. But I want Him to be glorified in all I do and say! Praise God, I'm saved, delivered and healed!
