About Me

Christian Myspace Layouts - Resurrection MySpace Layouts Christian Myspace Layouts Christian Myspace Layouts - Resurrection MySpace Layouts Christian Myspace LayoutsI'm a born-again Christian who has given his life to the Lord, I serve the Lord in order to give back what He has given me...A new life in and through Jesus Christ my Lord and Saviour. I'm here on Myspace trying to branch out of my little world here, you see I'm an extreme introvert. This is just my way of trying something different, trying to get out of my mold...Myspace has been quite the little tool that I've been able to use; to play with ( Got to love those apps... ) Myspace use to be my little own world in itself but I've learned that its fun and interesting to branch out to meet others. I'm here to say that "I'm not ashamed of the Lord", I'm here to take a stand and profess my faith for Him and in Him... That's what it means to be a witness, right? I'm one of those saved by grace stories, it's been over 4 and a half years now that I gave my life to Christ. I'm one of those Christians that gives thanks to God for having been brought from the darkness into the light. A darkness so deep, that the only light that was able to penetrate it was the light of Jesus Christ! A drug addict that for the most part of his life hated God or any notion of there being one. "I prayed the other way"...I was caught in a life of darkness that included pain and violence...I was doing cocaine during the day and crank at night, drinking crown royal from the moment that I woke up to the time I finally passed out...Got caught up in the streets, jails, and prisons; it was about an immoral attitude/view of respect...I finally woke up to the fact that there was something greater than what I was fighting for, that there was something worth living for. At one time I was so filled with hate and pain, that's all I knew. I fed off of hate and pain, I was out to destroy myself and anything or anyone else that chose to get near me at the time. I was a soldier of the darkness, breed of the darkness, I existed witin the darkness bringing others within the misery...Violence, drugs, gangs and death were a way of life; if you could call it that...The existence of a empty shell of flesh, sent to devour things and others to subside the call of pain and hate within my own misery...My favorite colors were red and black; red because it is the color of death and black because I was dead! I never thought that I would get pass the age of 20 something; Between the situations that I put myself through, the overdoses, the suicidal thoughts, God only knows why I'm still here. 22 years of hell, 22 years of trying to quell the pain through drugs(I stayed loaded), alcohol(I stayed drunk), violence, pornography, women, money, materialistic things, cutting, giving my life to the service of satan, gangs...If it was immoral, then I probably had something to do with it...There was no end to the insanity within the darkness within and around me!!!..
MyNiceSpace.comI love serving the Lord through the Children's Ministries and Mission Trips. I love serving the Children's ministry, children are the prime example of Jesus' love for us. A child's love has no boundaries, yet where as an adult's love is tainted in some form or another...Nothing but give and take in return. A child wants your heart opened to them, a hug, just the feeling of being wanted. An adult has learned to twist love into their own wants and desires, to their own benefit. "Only through child-like faith shall we enter the gates of Heaven"...Faith and love go hand in hand, one without the other accomplishes nothing! Child-like faith, Child-like love...But then again, that's how I perceive love needs to be...

Someone that likes to take care of herself, that more or less has the same goals in life.Someone that has the desire to serve the Lord with all her heart. Someone that desires to work and yet spend time with family.To be brothers and sisters in Christ first, then friends, then partners in life... Contact Tables

Violence

I want to take the time to say a little about violence, violence destroys more than you think. Whether you are the aggressor or the victim, it destroys a part of you that is really hard to get back. F...

Not worthy of being free...

Time and time again I keep hearing that we are not worthy of being free, that we don't deserve living lives that are good. That when things go bad, we just say that "oh well, that's what I get in...

To those that are in pain,

How many of us know of someone that has deliberately cut themselves? How many of us actually pay attention to those that do? For those that do actually take part in it, what do you seek? Is it that yo...
