From Self-indulgent Flesh Fest to Eternal Surrender
After a 30+ year long self-indulgent flesh fest filled with such ungodly behavior, I stand as a living testimony of the saving power of my Lord and Savior Jesus the Christ!
Before I truly surrendered my life to Jesus Christ my life was all about me!
My self-indulgent flesh fest, as I call it, led me to the lowest of lows....finally leading me to a very lonely and dangerous place. When I finally accepted my weakness I sought to renew my relationship with my Lord and Savior Jesus Christ!
When I realized that I was destined for both a natural death as well as spiritual death I stopped ignoring that still small voice and began seeking Jesus who I knew was the only way for me to withstand the evil I let slowly slip in and ultimately take over my mind, heart, spirit and life!
My life now is full of so much peace and joy as I continue my daily walk seeking to glorify He who saved me from eternal damnation! And for that, I will be forever grateful.
The last night that I allowed myself to partake of substances that controlled my mind I saw my life flash before me as the car I was in hit a pothole and I feared for my life! I decided that night, September 23, 2018 that I had been away from Him too long and that if I did not stop living to please my flesh that death was inevitable. That was the turning point that led me back to Christ!
Oh how different my life is now! Oh how different I am now. I am so blessed to have been forgiven over and over again. He knew it all along! That one day, as the prodigal son came to himself and returned home that I would indeed do the same and run home to My Father God Each day is filled with new blessings, new revelation and a new perspective on life in Christ! Free from the wages of my sins I now share my story as often as I can, never forgetting that it is NOT about me- it is the love story of a lifetime with a happy ending! Being confident now, not in myself but in the strength of Christ's love for me, I am at peace knowing that He will never leave me nor forsake me and that I will be spending all of eternity with Him!
Your testimony matters too
