God is my all. He is the only thing that drives me to survive on this earth. I was saved at the age of 11, and it was the most awesome time of my life, or at least I thought so.

I was very faithful, until my mid teens and then for the next 30 something years, I decided "my life is my life". I desired to climb the ladder of success. So I did, and when I got to the top...
it all fell from under me, and everything was gone. He had taken it all. I was physically , mentally, spiritually, and financially broken.

I had absolutely nothing but this mere speck that kept nagging. Life was no longer worth living. I was contemplating and planning way after way, to end it. But the nagging persisted. The true battle was waged. I was useless...I was not useless.

I knew all along Who was nagging and so I finally attempted to call a truce. I went back to church, but things did not seem to be turning. So we tried yet another.

Finally, again life appeared to have a reason. Today I have God, and as He promised, He takes care of me. He never left me nor has he forsaken me.

Ok, I know I'm only new here, but i believe Jesus has showed me so many miracles that I wanna tell my story.
When I was younger, like 14-15, I was really messed up..literally. I was never raised as a Christian and I didn't care about anything, i was confused about a lot of things in my life. I was going through a upheaval with friends, my parents, I was trying to figure out who I was. I wasn't sure about my sexuality either..an extremely low point for me. I was so quiet back then - so silent, without a voice, never seen. I wanted to be different, but at the same time I never wanted to stand out. I partied, drank, I just didn't care. I was a little girl angry at the world, I guess you could say.
I never could have imagined what Christ had in store for me.
I believe the night I accepted Christ that I both found my faith and was saved. My friend, a devout Christian and someone I love so much, was telling me of the miracles in her life that God had given her. I believed her and thought it was amazing, but I never really got into it. Then something hit me hard. The song 'His Eye is on the Sparrow' really got to me. I FELT the words. I got goosebumps, tears in my eyes, and I believe I felt God with me.
I accepted Christ right then and since then, boy it hasnt been easy. Changing the mistakes of my life into good, but now, I feel so great and happy.
Through Jesus, I got more confident, made AWESOME friends and my life got stable, secure. I started learning about God, and I LOVED it. It was a massive change, but for all the right reasons.
And I started to write.
I believe with all my heart that God put me on this earth to bring glory to Him through my writing. Now I can't live without it. I would rather write than do anything. It's my dream, my passion, and if through my writing I introduced just one person to the love and light of God it would be all worth it.
I also believe God gave me a job I love so much, my car, my home, my family and he also gave me my wonderful Church family, which made me feel so welcomed and loved. So yeah, that's my story. Being a Christian is so beautiful, doesnt matter about anything or any negatives, I will never turn away from my saviour.
I love Jesus!!
