Title: My Testimony
Tags:
Blog Entry: When I was born i was diagnosed with some mental disease called Assburgers(not sure about spelling) and some overly impulsive disease. Quite a few years later I entered "Matoaca Elementary School " and struggled through(but passed) Kindergarden, through 3rd grade I was in "Special Ed" classes.In 5th grade I had trouble with being threatened by a friend's brother that kept me away from the few friends I had then. This forced me to go into hiding(homeschoo)l for a year. While in Homeschool Mom as my teacher made me do every page of every book(I hated it)! In pure desperation to get out of the house I fled back to the bad memories of being picked on, threatened, and ridiculed for who I was (except I was going to Middle School). My year started off very good, then I met this kid named Matthew Hamilton and a Church organization called "Upward". Matt encouraged me to buy a NIV Bible (which I did), but I never really accepted Jesus even though I had heard about what He did.Then Upward gave me a pamphlet explaining in detail what Jesus did and I think you know what happened... I accepted Jesus Christ into my heart the following morning and I did it on my knees. I started witnessing a week after my salvation, reading my Bible in class and at home, and Matthew Hamilton to this day is my best friend. I have become more social, The Jesus Kid is what I have been called has been called to recieve awards, helped his teachers regardless, and worked hard for the cause of Christ. I am now people say in my Youth Group (which I am a core member of) that if they went all out for God... they would be like me. God Bless!
