Just moments before I accepted Jesus in my heart, I remembered the saying, "if you want your soul to be saved, you must mean it with your heart. That is the way that Jesus will honor your devotion."

I heard a saying from a Christian man, who said, "there should be one thing added at the end of the encouragement which helps lead sinners to a saved life,—'it will be the hardest decision of your entire life."

From that day forward God wasn't simply knocking at the door of my heart. I had opened the door wide and allowed the power of the Holy Spirit to equip and guide my life. 

​

I wasn't very old when I got saved by the blood of Jesus, I was a boy about 10. I also was very lost in the world at the time; my habits were nasty and out-of-control. I hated to obey authority, and I loved to do things my way.

​

The holy spirit has been patient with me. In my journey it has showed me the everlasting love of God. I now understand what it means to be a child of God, adopted into the family of God, changed from enemy to friend.
