It's funny how when you read a story, you can sometimes see personality traits in the details that stand out to the author. To me, I think for Christians you can't help but remember those details that just seem to scream the work of the Lord, however small or large. For me, it was the time period just prior to my wanting to truly become a disciple of Jesus.
I don't want to get into details too much, as there are many [And i don't want you smart people persons inferring too much of my personality as a result
]
Needless to say I was very much apart of this world. With a girlfriend suffering from nymphomania from past abuse and alcoholism, while I began to neglect my Christian upbringing with drugs, fornication, and a great many other sins I refused to acknowledge. She was a stripper and I supported it because we enjoyed the money, while my education went from college studies to how to get more drugs [Marijuana, coke, alcohol, etc etc...]. For an 18 year old male, who's fallen far from the wisdom of the Bible, this actually seemed fun for me for a time. I cared little of spiritual things and instead focused on how to stay high and the incredibly dysfunctional and even at times abusive relationship I was in. I had everything i wanted, I had an extremely attractive looking girlfriend who enjoyed fornication as i did [Proverbs 11:22 anyone?] and as a result I was often at parties doing what i had always dreamed of in high school, being part of that 'in' crowd. We both became liberal with the idea of sharing and having multiple partners, and frankly I would be suprised if you could point out a decision i made at the time that didn't show me to be the follower of 'Beezlebub'
God interjected in a way that forever changed me, at a time where I never even thought of repenting, i feel. She got pregnant. All of a sudden the blind eye i had to all of the wrong doings i took part in [and even liked to do at the time] had become apparent. My heart became hardened further as we decided to get an abortion. I cared little at the time, thinking of little more than not wanting to be stuck with this girl and the volatile mix we both made up. Some months after that we broke up, and almost immediately after she stepped out of my life, i picked up the Bible.
Since then i have been baptized in the Lord, and became a born again virgin. I no longer have 'haughty eyes', 'fornicate', do hard drugs, or yoke myself in with unbelievers [more specifically, those who habitually sin for pleasure]. I am still in the process of trying to find new Christian friends, as my old ones would often pressure me to join in what they consider fun, which is why I am so lucky to have stumbled across Christian chat.
Anyway, thank you for taking the time out to learn something about me.
