My Adventure with the Lord

Before I started my adventure with God, I was bored with life.

I always wished for something interesting to happen to me, something like a fairytale. Maybe it would be romance, but I was too young for that. I was bored, exhausted with expecting something to happen. I got into Witchcraft, New Age things. It did nothing, I felt just as empty and bored with everything. I watched a lot of Anime, which led to me reading fanfictions, really inappropriate ones too. I fell deeper into a rabbit hole every time I would do tarot readings, or pray with my crystals to deities I knew nothing about. I remember my cousin told me about these "Spirit Guides" that would guide me through life. Me seeking a meaning, I was interested. I learned about Pagan Gods, and deities of all sorts. Nothing would fulfill me. I started getting involved in all kinds of crazy things and thoughts. I would tell people I was an incarnation of an alien from the Orion Belt (Yes, I did believe that.) The further I digged, the angrier I got, the more sinful I got. I would fantasize about killing everyone dear to me. I have always had anger problems, and this period of my life only worsened them. I was filled with a wanting to do evil things, but I never would, because I was raised with a belief in Heaven and Hell, and deep down, I was really afraid of being punished. Nothing could fulfill me.

Then through a video, I learned to accept Christ Jesus, and live every day as an adventure through Him.

Now that I follow Jesus Christ, I no longer am angry, or bored.

I installed Tik Tok, so that I could watch tarot readings, and other New Age things. Over the course of a week, Christian videos started showing up. Eventually replacing all of my New Age videos. I was confused, I didn't know why I was seeing all of these. Then something in me kept telling me to read my Bible, so I dug through my dusty pile of clutter on my nightstand, and pulled out my Bible. I read some verses, I don't remember which. I felt called, like I needed this. So, I went back on Tik Tok to try and put that feeling in a box. However, I was met by a video titled "Message from God : God wants you to hear this." And I listened. It was as if a wind lifted my soul out of this rabbit hole, and set me gently on the ground. And there I was, repenting, in tears.

While I still struggle with sin, as we all do, I full-heartedly believe in my Lord and Savior Jesus Christ, and want nothing more than to live for Him. I have seen him transform my life, from my anger, which I still have issues with, but I am actively working on them with God, and expect to be rid of my anger problems in no time. He has brought Goodness into my life, put me through trials, of which I have grown, and led me through Triumphs. I love the Lord, and I want to know him more. This is how I know I will go to Heaven when I die, and I will see the face of My Savior.
