WHOEVER FINDS GOD...FINDS LIFE!!!

I am here for Dating, Serious Relationships, Friends and Networking

About Me

I'm a laid back Christian guy from the Iowa/Illinois, "Quad Cities" Area that enjoys making new friends, photography, music of all kinds and Chicago Cubs Baseball! I first came to know Christ as my Personal, Lord and Savior when I was about 10 or 11 years old. I was a pretty messed up young boy and the Pastor of my Church at the time (Tommy Barnett), brought in former New York City gang member, Nicki Cruz to speak to the youth in attendance. If you don't know who Nicki Cruz is: 1. The movie, "The Cross and the Switchblade" are about him, 2. The book, "Run Baby Run" are about him and 3. The video on the left side of my profile is Nicki Cruz on the 700 Club. I ask that you would watch it and that your life would be changed the way mine was that day. I didn't remain on the path of righteousness all those years though. In fact, I went on to drink, drug, party, be very promiscuous, eventually become addicted to pornography and a whole mess of other things I am no longer proud of; BUT WHEN GOD came back after me, I began to FINALLY yield myself Completely to HIM and HIS Will for the life HE GAVE ME. You see...NOTHING we receive is ours...it is ALL GOD'S. He just entrusts us with money, health, friends, houses, cars/trucks, clothes, etc...the faster you realize that this life IS NOT YOUR OWN, the happier you will begin to live life again. If you don't know MY Jesus as your Personal Savior, I invite you to ask me more about HIM and how HE LOVED US ALL SO MUCH, THAT HE CHOSE TO HANG AND DIE ON THE CROSS AT CALVARY, SO THAT HIS BLOOD WOULD WASH AWAY THE SINS OF EACH AND EVERY ONE OF US, AND THAT VERY BLOOD WOULD BE THE BRIDGE THAT ALIGNS US BACK INTO WELCOME UNION WITH GOD, THE FATHER IN HEAVEN. IT IS ONLY THROUGH A PERSONAL RELATIONSHIP WITH CHRIST, THAT YOU WILL EVER BE ALLOWED INTO HEAVEN. MOST IMPORTANTLY, I must point out: You don't have to "be" cleaned up FIRST to come to Christ. HE LOVES YOU JUST AS YOU ARE AND YOU COULD NEVER CLEAN UP ENOUGH ON YOUR OWN EVEN IF YOU ATTEMPTED TO DO SO. My prayer is that through MySpace, we can all be an encouragement to one another, build life long friendships and truly make an IMPACT in this world for GOD'S GLORY ALONE! God Bless You ALL and I look forward to hearing from you!

I could really use solid Christian friends that can help keep me accountable and perhaps even mentor me to becoming the strong Christian that I long to become! I look forward to meeting you! Leave a message or comment anytime ;) I am presently not interested in dating, but when God gives me the green light to do so again, she MUST be Christian and deeply rooted in her Faith and have very strong morals.Now...WHO I WON'T ADD:I won't add you if you don't have a picture in your profile, if your profiles "friends comments" is filled with advertisements, if you attempt to send advertisements to me, if you try to re-direct me to another site for "other pictures" of you....if you can't place them here; they don't need to be nor are they wanting to be seen by me. Have some class, don't be fake, don't bring me drama and we'll get along just fine.IF you WANT to know me, it's simple...ADD ME and message me. ONE LAST WARNING: IF YOUR PROFILE CONTAINS SUGGESTIVE PHOTOS, PROFANITY OR ANY MOCKERY OF JESUS OR GOD..SAVE YOUR TIME AND MINE AND DO NOT ADD ME AS A FRIEND.
