In my life, i have been through much and i feel i must share it with all my brothers and sisters. As a young boy, i grew up in staten island, new york in a town called south beach. It was hard because my parents barely made ends meat for us but it was a life. As a young boy, i attended CCD at my local church which was called holy rosary. I never had the capacity to understand jesus because i was going through so much at home and in school.

As i grew older, i moved to new jersey at age 13 and it turnedo out to be a major moment in my life. being placed in a strange town without knowing a single person made me feel very alone and i struggled to keep friends. This continued until i attended high school, which took me 5 years to complete. Still, i wasn't a serious christian but i took life for granted. I was building this wall of loneliness which was getting far to big.

Starting college in september 2007, i tried to reach out to God but i couldn't hold my end of the bargain and i constantly fell daily to sinful desires. Until in Novemeber, i met a woman who i felt loved me. It was a sinful relationship with a married woman but i still felt i needed to be in it to satisfy my needs. On the 18th of february, i felt the lord tell me that i have to give her up for the sake of my soul and i did.

Since that day, i've been walking in christ and i tell you that it is a beautiful thing. Saved iam from my previous life of deceit. God bless us all
