Testimony: My Teenage Life

I want to share my story but i cant express it.
If you will read this please don't make fun of my grammar and words...and play music first before reading this..hillsong please


When i was 15 years old i had this stupid ambition to be a gangster. Then when I turned 16 i joined a gang then there i experienced all kinds of bitterness like gang wars, using drugs everyday (marijuana) and committing adultery.

I forgot to tell you that i dropped out of school. i dropped all my subjects to continue my ambition. then every summer we had a summer job to steal cellphones. then we would sell them to buy liquor. Then when i turned 17 years old, suddenly i woke up!

"Why am I doing this?"

i din't even know God during that time. i was totally lost. i ddin't know how to find the light. my life had no direction. every day i was smoking those drugs and doing evil things!

...then one day the Lord Jesus Christ picked me up because i was down. He lit up my way. He gave His love for me. Then i started to read the Bible to find out "who am i? whats my purpose here on earth? why God chosen me?"

i'm searching my self everyday. i'm praying to God. only God can feel my heart. then i put my trust in Him and offered my life to Him and worshiped Him.

i love giving praise to our God. i love this life because i know God is with me. now im born again!

God has a plan for me! A better plan for all of us!

The love of God changed my life. He gave His only Son for me - for us! i give all my heart to the lord, all of my soul, and my mind. i love the lord. i will serve Him forever AMEN...that's all sorry for my wrong grammar words. .thank you Godbless you.
