My story with God
Approximately ten years ago, I was a bold atheist. I had come to the point in my life that I did not believe there was a God who created the universe and who cared what happened to me. This was the lowest point of my life.

Over the past ten years, God has never let go of me. I wanted no part of Him. He loved me enough to hang on to me and not let me fall into the hopelessness of my unbelief. At this point, I realized how ridiculous my belief was that everything just happened by chance. Everything in this world is perfect for life to exist. That did not just happen.

God also put several people in my life to bring me closer to Him. First, He made a way for me to marry the love of my life, even though it seemed impossible at the time. Faye, my wife, encouraged me to help her find a church for us to attend as newlyweds. It took several months until we settled on a church close to our home. This church had excitement, spirituality, and truth. The pastor gave the Word of God as truth without shame. This was where my true relationship with Jesus began.

In the process of joining the church, an associate pastor revealed to me that God made me for a particular purpose and He wanted me to fulfill it. I was convicted to be baptized again since I was convinced that I did not know Jesus before this time. There was no bright light or voice from above. I just knew that the time was right.

In the year after that experience, I hung on to several hangups and habits that I knew were keeping me from serving God as I should. Approximately six months later I totally surrendered all I had to God. That was the beginning of a long journey for me.

Since that time, I have struggled with my pride and selfishness. I have turned these things over to God for Him to deal with. I realize I cannot do it alone. He must help me with it. I know that today my identity does not depend on the things I have done in the past and that I still may do. My identity lies in my relationship with Jesus, my Lord. He is the only way to God. May you find Him.

here's a joke i got from the AAG forum to cheer you up-

BIGGER TURKEY-
A woman walks into a butcher's shop just before closing time and asks, "Do you have any turkey?"

The butcher opens his fridge, takes out his only turkey and puts it on the weighing scales. It weighs six pounds.

The woman looks at the turkey and at the scales and asks, "Do you have one that's a bit bigger than this one, please?" The butcher puts the turkey back into the fridge and then takes it out again, but this time when he puts it on the scales he keeps his thumb on the turkey. The scales now show eight pounds.

"That's wonderful," says the woman. "I'll take both of them, please!"

(Ha ha ha.... gotcha butcher!)
