For sake of time I give you the condensed version.
I was raised in a christian home, my father a Pastor and my mother a truly Godly women. I went down the aisle and said a prayer and was Baptiste in my early teens. But I never committed my life to God, or made any offer to make Him the Lord of my life. I lived on the edge in compromise. By the time I was 18 I was a daily user of drugs. Married at 21 going through a divorce with 2 children 7 years latter with my wife pregnant. I payed a man at an abortion clinic to murder my unborn child. With out question an act most can not conceive. I became a cocaine and crack addict and a drug dealer.I did every drug I could get my hands on no mater what it cost me or those around me. I have held women at gun point for as little as 150 dollars and thought nothing of it. I have 2 felony convictions for trafficking and once faced a possible 27 year sentence. I've stolen,lied,cheated, put people in the hospital, murdered my own unborn child. Lived a promiscuous live style treating women as things rather than God's creation, was a porn addict and a gambler. In short I was the worst of the worst, a monster and a menace to society. I deserved to be killed and spend eternity in hell.I feel if Paul was the chief of all sinners then I was the emperor.
My life was miserable I thought my only relief was death. I thought constantly of killing myself. I thought I was hopeless and helpless.
But on Oct. 23 2007 I cryed out to my Wonderful Savior Jesus The Christ and I begged Him to take over my life to show me His path and led me, to take over for me. Oh what a glorious day Jesus reached down into the cesspool of my life and lifted me out whipped away all the filth and clothed me in a pure spotless unblemished garment through His precious blood. Only by His grace, none has every been more deserving of hell. I'm so glad I won't get what I deserve. Today though I am far from a perfect man, I truly love the Lord and my life has been changed from a nightmare to a beautiful dream. I am in full time missions and evangelism, I depend solely on the Lord for all my needs and He never fails me. He has sent me to Dominican Republic, Africa and I am currently in the Philippians. I am not qualified, educated, or even capable. And praise God he doesn't ask me to be, only to be willing. The story the Lord wrote with my life and poor choices is this. There is Help for the Helpless, Hope for the Hopeless, through Christ for the world. Please try to find forgiveness for those who are so offensive, they truly are in bondage.
I ask for your prayers, I am such a poor excuse for a Christian, But He's not through with me yet.
Jesus Love's you and so do I!
