I was born and raised in New York. I now reside in Texas. I am the youngest of many children. I got saved on August 7, 2002 I was 32 yrs. old. God put it in my heart to minister through music in 1998 but I didn't quite understand what He was doing to me or preparing me for until after I was saved. The Holy Spirit moved me to use my talent while I was in prison to share my testimony thru music (hip-hop). I am a testimonial lyrical minister and not a Christian rapper because through my testimony God has blessed me to touch many who have walked in my shoes and also others who have loved ones going through everything I've gone through. I've learned that a lot of my choices in life were permissable but not part of God's perfect plan. The walk I chose caused kaos in my life and pain in many others who loved me. I constantly ran from God because I wanted to be my own god. Every step I took led me deeper and deeper into darkness and eventually I ran out of options, sad stories, and lies. I had noone to turn to because I had burned every bridge I crossed. I had noone and nothing left. Before I signed to go to prison I remembered laying in my bed and seeing the replay of my life, the tears I caused my mother to shed because of the constant dissapointments, the confusion I caused my children because they couldn't understand why daddy was never home and when he came home why he looked the way he did and why was he fighting with mommy. I had so many unwanted visions of my past I was scared to go to sleep at night. I finally hit my knees and cried out to God to take these visions away and eventually He did. I started reading my bible and that's when I realized what was happening. God was showing me that the life I was living was not the reason I was brought to this earth but through it all what satan meant for bad God was gonna turn it around to bring glory unto His Name. { I know the plans I have for you, plans of good and not of evil plans for a future and a hope} He restored my life in ways I never imagined. Today I share my ministry through music to testify to the lost souls and to the brothers and sisters in Christ who struggle in their daily walk. I let them know that there is a God who loves each and every one of us and I share with them how God has delivered me from drugs, prison, gang affiliation, the streets and also from depression. He restored me and gave me a new vision and a powerful calling. Today I press foward no longer allowing the things of the past to hold me back. I've learned that I have been forgiven and all of my sins have been washed away by the blood of Jesus Christ. 1 John 1:9 reads " If you confess your sins He is faithful and just to forgive you of your sins and cleanse you from all unrighteousness" So I would like to encourage any one reading my page to believe that there is a way out of the misery through Christ Jesus. If He did it for me He will do it for you too (John 3:16). If you haven't accepted Jesus as your Lord and Savior, right now is as good a time as any. Just say " God I am a sinner and I come to you asking for forgiveness of my sins. I repent from the life that I chose to live and I turn to you for direction and guidance. I confess out my mouth that Jesus is Lord and I believe in my heart that you raised Him up from the dead and your word says by doing so I will be saved. AMEN!" By saying this prayer and believing what you prayed you are saved and the word says in Luke 15 when a sinner repents the angels in heaven rejoice. Thank you for allowing me to be part of your Holy Ghost party. I'll see you in heaven. God Bless. C.O.GHeader Banner Made with MyBannerMaker.com! Click here to make your own!
