My mission for myself and Jesus

Its been a long road. I Overcame my drinking problems through Christ on 6/7/08. I had been drinking basically everyday to some extent. As I grew up I always felt I was kinda on the outside looking in and having a drink in my hand made me feel secure. I went to 10 schools in 12 years and always felt that I was at square one. My mom and dad divorced when I was 6 years old. It was a constant move or transit from one to the other. When I went out into the world at 18 I had no idea what to expect or how to handle being a man. I failed miserably. Until I found a Christian home and family @ Reidsville Christian Church I had never seen how to establish roots. Now I have found true direction and commitment to allow Christ to live through me and to allow him to use me in ways I never thought possible. I have gained the knowledge of how to apply my Christian belief out into the world. This is done by reaching out to everyone you see and to show them a glimpse of how wonderful Christ love can be. I have made a personal challenge for myself to go out and help children of divorced parents and abused kids. These guys need a loving person in their life that will give them direction and hope. Peace Hope Love are the only 3 things that can be guaranteed. I created this little blog not to just say how much I have done or plan to do but to put out where everyone can see what we can do if we put our mind to it. My first step is to give to the very people I intend to reach. 2nd I am making a effort to locate a child in middle school that is from a divorced family. I have someone in mind now. I pray everyday to just seize the moment when I can walk across the room and be a loving part of his life. 3rd I plan on creating some teams w/ adults and kids within our church as volunteers. In the background I need to equip myself w/ as much knowledge as possible. I am putting a plan together now. I am enrolling in a online school that will help give me the tools to make a difference. In order to be able to succeed in all of this I have been working on my own family to become the best Husband and Dad that I can. You will know how good of a leader you are by just looking at your own family. If they are strong you can guarantee that there is a strong family environment. Same way you can find out how good you can lead by working in a volunteer situation. If they follow you are good. If not you know you need to change something. They don't have to follow if you don't pay them. So, all this being said I would be no where without Christ. Allowing Jesus to lead my life as intended is allowing me to project all of this and make it work. I pray every day for Jesus to just give me the opportunity to open a door and bring people to Jesus. I thank him for just allowing me to be. Nothing more. I don't even understand what it truly means to live on the bare necessities. None of us do. I'm blessed and I thank him for my very being.

Peace
