I Can Count on Him

I Can Count on Him

What My Life Was Like Before I Received Christ


Before I received Christ, my life was based around drugs sex and sports. All these things seemed to fill in the hole in my heart and it seemed like these were my real friends. The guys always invited me to parties and the girls were everywhere. I always had fun and never seemed alone

How I Came to Faith in Jesus


The day I came to Jesus was when everyone left me and I was in denial. Then my girlfriend invited me to church one Sunday morning, and while I was there I could feel God tugging on my heart. I left because I didn't know what was going on. The youth pastor came out and talked with me and prayed with me, and the next Sunday I received God into my heart

How My Faith Has Made a Difference


The difference in my life now is that I am a whole lot happier and more confident about myself. When people ask me, "Where will you go when you die?", I can now say heaven. I've got more peace that everything will be okay from now on, and God will be there for me when I need him the most, and even when I don't need him.

Lessons Learned

  • I can always count on him.
  • If I count on others, they will let me down.
