My leap of Faith
As a child of two strong Christian parents I was attending church at an early age. I used to go just because i had to. Once i turned 18 i decided to stop going. I was sick of having to do things my parents told me and wanted to make up my own mind. I always believed in a God and have lived somewhat Godly. I've been a compassionate non-judgmental person since birth. I was the type of kid who would be friends with anyone regardless of look or dress. Needless to say i wasn't a bad person. I was and always will be a sinner but i wasn't concerned with what i would learn as "the law" of God. As my childhood progressed into teenage years I began dipping my hands into the cookie jars of physical pleasure. In essence I partied like a rock star to find out later in life that all these cookie jars eventually run out of cookies. As the binge partying tapered off (due to stomach problems) and the girlfriend of my youth ending in disaster I began a state of bitter refinement. I stopped drinking and was trying to pull my ill physical and mental health together. Little did I know at the time that this would be a blessing in disguise. During my twenties my father would give me a bible (my childhood one had disappeared) and my mom would hear me complaining about life and say "You should pray about it" Eventually I came to a point where i decided to read the entire bible for myself. It started off somewhat bland and i would read things but they just wouldn't stick, it was like reading a bad book. Then about half way through I decided" hey I'm going to try and start living by the 10 commandments". That's when the transformation began, like I said before i have always believed in God and i have seen him interact in my life before but the Holy Spirit entered me this time and has changed my life in a positive direction ever since. My father would give me more books like the evidence bible and invite me to a prophecy conference. Thus began my obsession with the end times in which we live in and the birth of this web site. Now i read every article, book, and website I can get my hands on about bible prophecy, Jesus, and the end times. I am now a disciple of Jesus Christ and I carry the message of the gospel every where I can. The web has made me happy in the sense that anyone can access my site at anytime. The efficiency of this type of ministry puts a smile on my face and its a no pressure sell. People can reach it on there own terms just as I did. Its all about saving souls and the way that works best for me is to plant the seed. I just want to paint the picture to people so that when I am gone (rapture) they will think that hey... maybe that guy was right. Its all about planting the seed. When that right moment presents itself to take action and talk about God in a non-forceful environment. Remember its not a sale its a gift. You don't have to be sad if you don't close the deal. Be happy with just being able to present the gospel and make a mark no matter what the size. I've always relished in making a positive impact on others lives and now through Christ i can share the ULTIMATE GIFT: ETERNAL LIFE .
