Take my life, Take it all.
As a young little boy of only the age of 13, I didnt know what having a God is, though I had a religion, I didnt follow I didnt care. I was someone who just couldn't be bothered of anything or whatsoever. I wanted to be the kid who would just go about living my life the way I want to. As bad as my character was back then, I was invited to church along with 2 friends of mine. It was something new to me, but yet i still went and kept going. Though my cell group members were much much older than me I went cause I had my friends to clique with, my members were nice to me as well. Though slowly my friends started to back out and stopped going. I happened to follow them as well, I never went whenever they didn't go. But something was pulling me, urging me to go. So after my friends backed out totally, I went on my own. One day during service in FCBC (Faith Community Baptist Church), there was a altar call, I don't know at that time what I was thinking, but I am glad I took that step of faith and went all on my own to the front (usually someone would bring me or smth). I was on my knees at the back of everyone, so I was the last person and there was no one else behind me. There I was, on my knees, praying to be accepted. Then a miracle happened, God hugged me, at that moment I was like "Who was tt!" Cause I knew that my cell leader didn't come with me, and I was the last. So I opened my eyes and turned around, and yet still there was no one behind me nor beside me. That is when I knew I just had a moment with God.
That changed my life forever. My faith shot up in that instant. I was on fire for Him. So 2 years went by. That is when my trials and temptations started.
It was the year 2008. Everything started to change, I walked away from God. I walked down a path that I myself hated. I became an aggressive person, someone who was easily angered and sometimes I might get violent. I started to smoke, started to become bad. Everything was just going bad. I always get reminded of God but then I ignored. My life was just in a mess for those years till about Sec 4 ending Sec 5 starting point.
My classmate invited me for his cell group outing, so I went. And I made new friends, and I went to CHC to attend service with them. Soon after, here I am again, at the very presence I first felt when I attend church, I couldn't believe how much I've been through and how much wrong I've done that i broke down into tears and I told myself that I will be forever in God's hands and I won't leave him. A backslider always comes back stronger I believe. This is when my life is now beginning to take its shape in the Glory of the Lord. I was filled with His Love and I was given a calling to be a Cell Leader. That was my main purpose then, I wanted to be build up as a Leader, leading the young for I have known what it's like being young and stupid. Bringing the lost back to Him. From then, I gave up the bad habits and walked in faith with Him. Life is never the same again after that. Now I'm living life happily though things that happen may pull me down at times, I always find the strength to pull myself back up cause I know my God is my strength.
So now, I'm praying to be build up strong and to be always ready for my calling. Though i've got a long way to go. I want to do it right, though it might take long. I want to take the next step towards God, with water baptism, but my mom is against me being baptised, cause she doesn't allow me to. But I really want to. I will never have any progress if its like this. So do pray for me yeah? That things will turn out fine. Need another miracle to happen!
As for tomorrow, will be attending my Community Services Ministry Orientation in the morning from 10 - 330 . Hope it goes well and stuff, aft tt will be church ! YAY ! :D
Pray that God would financially bless me, so that I can save and give into the building fund and hit my target. Lets Arise and Build ! My Church My Life.
I love God, and I love CHC and I love W341&461.
"Take My Life."
