I'm a born again believer!!! I try to do my very best!!! I know that I am not perfect!!! None of us are(in the New International Version of the Bible, it says in Romans 3:10 that: "As it is written: “There is no one righteous, not even one")!!! I can say that also in the Bible Philippians 3:12-15 best descries me!!! Again, in the New International Version Philippians 3:12-15 says: Phil 3:12 "Not that I have already obtained all this, or have already been made perfect, but I press on to take hold of that for which Christ Jesus took hold of me. Phil 3:13 Brothers, I do not consider myself yet to have taken hold of it. But one thing I do: Forgetting what is behind and straining toward what is ahead, Phil 3:14 I press on toward the goal to win the prize for which God has called me heavenward in Christ Jesus. Phil 3:15 All of us who are mature should take such a view of things. And if on some point you think differently, that too God will make clear to you." That is where my screen name "striving" comes in to play!!! = ) Now, I was bought up in a strict Christian home. My Mom raised us with very good morals. = ) As I was growing up, my friends would slowly and gradually draw me away from the Lord. I think it was when I was in Jr. high when I drew away from the Lord completely. I was hanging around gang members. I think it was around early high school that I started to experiment with drugs and alcohol. Before my Mom knew that I was smoking weed and drinking alcohol, I was just having fun. Experiencing life. Checking things out. Having a good ole time. LOL!!! = ) But when my Mom found out that I smoked weed ALL HELL BROKE LOOSE!!! LOL!!! For realz. She became another person. She was very strict on us, she would try to force us to go to church all the time. She was very mentally abusive toward us. The whole time I would say to myself, "what happened to my cool, loving, Christian Mom???" All I wanted to do was talk to her about some things, but she wasn't hearing it. I became very rebellious. A monster if you will. LOL!!!(that was funny, sorry.) = ) Now getting back to where I was. We were always arguing and fighting with each other, getting no where. We would get in to these big fights, and I would go storming off and drink myself to death. Now thats very dangerous!!! I would black out sometimes. I know that at least one time that I woke up all beat up, wondering what happened, feeling like major crap. It is only the Lord that I am here today!!! Seriously, I should of been dead so many times it's unreal!!! That is why I am with the Lord now!!! I always said no to meth before my Mom found out I was smoking weed. But at one point I was on the run and someone offered me a line and I did it. That was I big mistake. Although I didn't like it, I would still do it. I'm dumb I guess. I guess I would do it because it was something different. Looking at the wrong things is what I was doing. Anyways, this would continue on until April 11th of 2004. I was twenty-five. I just got a Other Than Honorable discharge for the Marines. My head was so messed up from meth that I thought I was permanently brain damaged. At that time I thought that the only real me was when I was drinking. I was doing things that I would always tell myself that I was never going to do. I hit rock bottom. I knew that I had to change, or else I wasn't going to live very long. So April 12th of 2004 I surrendered my life to Jesus!!! After that I spent about two and a half years clean and sober at the L.A. Dream Center. I graduated from two Discipleship programs there!!! I loved that place!!! I didn't want to leave!!! But I had to get my life going. So now I am back here to go to college. I have gotten all straight A's in college since I have been back to college. I praise the Lord for that. He has been blessing me financially too. I give him all the glory and honor and praise!!! THANK YOU JESUS!!! I More about me: I am energetic. I like the outdoors. I love kids. I like to have fun. I want to have pets. I like miniature golf. LOL!!! = ) Right now, I am currently single and looking for someone who is very serious about the Lord. = ) I also have a "Your Christian Space". It is: www.yourchristianspace.com/striving/
