i am truebeliever, this is my story.
I was living the coporate dream flying high, too high almost. I lived life in the fast lane, the very fast lane. It was all cocktail parties, desinger handbags and mocha choca skinny lates . GOD played little to no role in my life. i often wondered what it would be like to be religious to have that little something extra in life that didnt come in a martini glass with an olive on a stick. I spent my time earning copious amounts of money and jet setting around the globe. I didnt know what it felt like to be part of anything true, sure i was a major player in my job and on the company lacrosse team but i really had nothing, no foundation in my life. The more i achieved in my career, earning various promotions and using whatever means possible to get them, the more i became reliant on substance abuse to keep me going. It started with an addiction to cough syrup and quickly, almost effortlessly to vodka and vodka based substances. While on a trip i was introduced to vodka jello. it was to be final sin before i turned to GOD. I returned home and in the midst of a jello binge i passed out. I missed a lacrosse championship final. The team lost and i was fired. For once no amount of sleeping with the boss would regain my job.
For so long i had relied on the goodlooks that god blessed me with to get by, but now i was jobless and moneyless. Piece by piece my pottery barn furniture collection were reposessed. My imported Ikea footstool collection where taken too. It broke my heart. My martha stewart life fell apart. Late in fall i was walking to walgreens to stock up on cinamon tic tacs, a leaf so delicate and beautiful fell in my path. It was so angular and orange like GOD's love for us. I looked up it was from an old tree outside an old church. I felt the urge to go inside and pray.
Praise God and his glorious wonderousness. Ever since then i am saved. I have repented my ways and live a christian life.
I am saved.
Feel the power of the Lord in the trees and leaves.
For they are long living and shaply like his love.
I am but a twig on the tree of life.
I am saved by GOD and i will ever be in his debt.
