new member but not really .just saying hi
« on: November 16, 2014, 12:44:50 AM »

My walk with the Lord started about 9 years ago. He put me in a place where I called out from the depths of my being. My life was in danger to the point I was going to leave this world. I can not explain in detail all that happened after that specific prayer. All I can say is I KNEW God was real and was there with me. From there I started me search to know everything about Him. God brought me to this site about 6 years or so ago after I left the church and was baptized . That is when the light switches starting being activated. I am 35 year's old with 3 kid's with my new beautiful wife. I have severe adhd and ptsd (thorn in my flesh) Our 1 year old is named Jeremiah,our 2 year old is named Jericho and my 9 year old step son is named Harley who is autistic. He is my favorite but do not tell the other two lol. I live in Abbotsford B.C Canada the bible belt of Canada ( brood of vipers nest ). I am a mechanic by trade and My wife Alexa is a Flood and Restoration Technician. Funny how God uses little ones to change our live's in drastic ways (good way's). Was so scared to have kids worrying if I would be able to provide. I soon learned it is not I who provides but God himself. I was in the church system for many year's often in the back row and not even noticed. I got sick and tired of the roller coaster of Christianity and not knowing where I stand with God. I prayed He would send me Someone who was strong in His word and real. The next day I was in a Christian chat room I often went to. I got a random message from Someone named Rod. I knew it was from God Himself and met this awesome fellow as He lived in Richmond B.C an hour away. He was the one that baptized me. I was still Religious then and knew it in my soul I needed to be baptized. He knew it was not about the physical and about spiritual.He knew and I had no clue ,I was trying to jump through hoops I was taught. He baptized me with water for my consciousness sake and with spirit after.
After I met him and His Awesome family and was Baptized everything changed. Then God lead me here to quench the thirst I had and feed me with spiritual food. I have read everything on the site some more than once. I apologize for not saying hi sooner , I just figured I would come say Hi and let you all know Gods story in My life. Maybe it will give hope to someone or glory to  Our Father. Im a big pain in the a@@ and He has been more than good and faithful to me and my family. Thank you All and mostly Thank You Father for being You.

Thanks for sharing your story.

Very encouraging how you have come through it all.

I use to sit in the back row of church in my last years. I think God was gradually getting me out as the door seemed to be getting closer each time. Many times I left part way through once I had enough and now I'm all the way out  ;)

Welcome to the forum and may you continue to grow in His truth and touch those around you.

Welcome to the forum.  I am delighted you have finally decided to join. :)

I noticed you shared the names of your children, wife, and the man who baptized you, but didn't give your name.  Not that you have to, but it would be nice to know when we communicate with you. Of course, if you prefer, we can just call you RepentandLive. ;)
