My Transformation Story Through the Blood of Christ.
Although I knew the Lord, I never had a personal relationship with Him until I was brought to my knees in repentance. After repenting of my backsliding and waywardness, The Lord brough me out of darkness into light and brought my family together to support me on my journey to becoming the man of God I was called to be.
Having eternal life has helped me to understand my purpose in life and develop the faith to face my fears with the security of the Holy spirit guiding me.
I have always known the Lord because I was raised in church. However, I could never understand what my purpose was until I truly developed a personal relationship with the Lord through my failures in life. There were moments in my past in the midst of the trials and tribulations of childhood that God showed me the wonders of His mercy and grace for me by keeping me safe from harm and pulling me through hard times to the other side. For example, I tore my ACL junior year going into senior year after having worked hard for three years to become the starting point guard. I wasn't able to get this injury fixed until two years after high school was over. Furthermore, although I couldn't play basketball my senior year, I was able to do band because of the amount of muscle I retained from the prior years of athletics.
There was much distress in my younger days from broken family relations, friendships, failed pursuits of love and more. However, after I hit rock bottom in my faith and condition of life where I had been the most distant from the Lord through the troubles of this world, I fell to my knees and asked for forgiveness. The Lord appeared to me in my captivity and gave me a second chance.
