There was a time in my life where deep down inside, I felt like I wasn't enough for anyone and I didn't know what my purpose was in life. I would smile and say everything was okay when clearly something didn't feel right with me. I began to pray and ask God for strength and guidance, overtime while praying for this I noticed things began to change. Things changed in ways I could not explain with out tearing up. He has showed me how to be more like him and love people. That is why I'm here on this earth, man God is so good!
The paragraph above was something I wrote on my Facebook yesterday and felt like it needed to be shared and expressed more, so below is additional feelings about myself and the change that took place within that helped me become the person I am today.
For so long I felt alone and distant. I was in a dark place, in a hole, a pit of despair. I was not suicidal, it was never anything like that. But I longed for a sense of belonging and a feeling of being whole. When I started attending church at ACF I started to get a feel for the message and began to grasp it and I started to cry. I was not crying out of sadness but out of the Epiphany I was experiencing. I was in awe and I felt as though this is where I belong. The people of the church made me feel welcomed and accepted and the message they were spreading resonated with me. I'm grateful for the community I'm surrounded by and the direction my life is headed. Through all of the darkness I have felt the healing positive influence of God over the past ten years of attending church. However I've only just found myself within the past two years and I think I have become the person I was intended to be.
