One week before I surrendered my life to Christ, I was riding my motorcycle home from the gym late at night. Glancing at my phone for a text notification, I didn’t see the truck halfway in my lane until it was too late. The collision at 60 mph left me unable to walk for three days, but by God’s grace, I escaped with minimal harm.
Exactly a week later, I attended a prayer meeting an hour away from home. Through the prayers of others, God supernaturally healed my legs, prompting me to commit my life to Jesus.
Repentance, I realized, meant more than seeking forgiveness; it demanded change. I turned away from addictions like drugs, nicotine, alcohol, and cursing, never looking back.
In the early days of my faith journey, doubts arose as my old friends distanced themselves, unable to accept the changes in me. Even my closest friend, from a Christian background, drifted away.
Though confused initially, I later understood God’s purpose in separating me from negative influences.
Despite my eagerness to embark on mission trips, I accepted the need to seek God’s approval first. This realization led me to focus on serving my hometown of Anderson, recognizing that revival begins within oneself before spreading to others. Since then, I’ve initiated a home prayer group and increased my involvement in ministry in Anderson.
My life’s mission is now centered on demonstrating Christ’s love and serving those around me, whether in Anderson, Spartanburg, or beyond. My ultimate vision is to see the lost saved.
