About Me

I have gone from dismal to hopeful, from dreading the end to believing the promise, from using and abusing to freedom from addiction, from slanderous and hateful to listening and encouraging, from dead to alive, from empty to full. I have met the great lover and creator of the world, and his name is Jesus of Nazareth, the only one who ever showed me what real love is, the only one who ever put that love into action, and the one that showed me that theres more to life than what we see. He defines everything that I want to be and shows me everything that I'm not. He's the one who took everything evil about me upon himself in exchange for everything good about himself. I hope you know him too.
