I apologize for the delay on my testimony. I have no "great" excuse. Except for it's long and difficult to write :). It seems although we all let "life" sometimes get in the way of our "living"; I know I do at times. With that all said, I want to give a few brief words before I tell you my testimony.
First, this will be a summary of a series of events in my life, that in reality are very in depth and more complex than what I am presenting on the surface. These events are the stepping stones that I believe led me to the exact day and moment when I realized "the truth", experienced for the first time ever in my life - - "destiny", and discovered who I am and the purpose for my life and why I was created.
Second, I feel it's inappropriate to give the NR version of my testimony, but I plan to be as straight forward and honest as possible. Looking over my life, I feel I've always had a good heart. And throughout my life there were plenty of so called "good things" I've done in my life ... but like everyone, I've fallen short ... I've been very sinful, and although I might not be able to see your heart, God sees all, and knows everything you(I)have ever thought of and have done. He has seen all the good and the bad ... and at the end of the day, He still believes in us (me) and His love remains the same.
There really is hope. I was a hopeless facade and today I stand in the Hope that has set me free. Jesus
By exposing all that has happened, you will be able to see ... that God loves us 100% all the time, always ... and He came to my rescue ... even when I did not call on him, nor did I look to Him ... His mercy, forgiveness and love (Grace) ... came to my rescue, not because deep down I needed Him or Loved Him ... BUT MORE IMPORTANTLY BECAUSE HE LOVED ME AND HE DESIRED FOR ME, TO BE WITH HIM ... FOREVER.
And the only way I can live "In His Body" (Heaven) is if I am sinless, and that is where the death and resurrection of Jesus comes in to save. I needed saving. I did not need a hero ... I need something more than that. I needed Jesus.
(STILL EDITING THE TESTIMONY... BUT IT WILL COME IN SEVERAL BLOGS, BC ITS KINDA LONG, FOR TONIGHT THIS JUST GETS YOU READY)

Amen, bro... God is a God who shows extravagant grace. We are able to love Him only because He loved us first. Furthermore, like the father of the prodigal son from Jesus' parable, God runs to us from afar - while we are still filthy, smelly, and hardly recognizable. He meets us where we are. What an amazing God!
