From nothing to everlasting!
Neither my wife nor I were raised in Christian homes. We met, fell in love, got married, were deciding when to start our family and the Lord Jesus then introduced himself to us via faithful prayer and sharing of the Gospel by new friends we made when we moved to a new community.
Before I received Jesus as my Lord and Savior, my life was very self centered. I did not have any major problems with the exception of an interest in pornography that the Lord has now freed me from. My wife and I met and neither was from a Christian family. One "nothing" married another "nothing" and we found Jesus together!
When my wife and I both realized that Jesus actually did exist, it was like the scales fell from our eyes and we both realized what a mistake we had been living and how we now needed to live life. We both removed all the pornographic materials from our lives and while it has not been easy in the 18 years since we came to know Jesus, it has all been a blessing.
We had the Gospel shared with us by some new friends and that changed the course of our lives to be Christ focused instead of self focused. We both accepted Jesus as our Lord and Savior on January 18, 1998 and were baptized.
We now know the true and correct way to live life, serve and worship the Lord and raise our daughter to know him also.
We led our daughter to accept Jesus has her personal Lord and Savior when she was seven years of age and she was then baptized following her confession of faith.
We have now served the Lord Jesus for almost two decades, in four different countries, in many different churches and communities. We have made the best trade that anyone could ever make: We have given God all of our fears, sins, hangups and junk and he has given us eternal life and salvation, by placing our faith in his Son Jesus.
Your testimony matters too
