Is God Real?
There was a time in my life when posed with this question I would have laughed in your face, mocked and spit at you and your God.
Today you can ask me how do I know that God is real and I’d have to answer that the scares of life prove, to me, that God is real.

Is God Real?
There was a time in my life when posed with this question I would have laughed in your face, mocked and spit at you and your God.
Today you can ask me how do I know that God is real and I’d have to answer that the scares of life prove, to me, that God is real.
When with every aspect of me I wanted to die and suicide seemed like the only option God took my life and gave me a new one.
When my heart was so heavy with my mistakes of the past and hatred toward everyone around me lead me to pure evil and violence toward all God took that heart and gave me a new one.
When the only hope for today was at the bottom of the bottle or the end of a torch God gave me a new hope for today.
When I seen no point in trying to fight through another day and overdose seemed the softest way to slip into eternity God gave me a reason to fight.
When there was no comfort within myself God wrapped His Word around me and gave me shelter.
The world left me broken, miserable, without hope and suicidal.
God gave me life, hope, joy and a reason to fight when nothing else would.
So to me. This is how I know that God is real.
With These Hands
I fold these hands as I humbly pray,
and thank the Lord for I still remember the day,
that with these hands I did arrogantly sway,
seek and destroy anyone who dared try to turn me another way.
See I was raised by these two hands,
through childhood and abuse,
survival was a means and it was earned by these two hands,
listen and obey my command or with these two hands I’ll beat you like a man,
you’re just a child but through the pain I’ll teach you to stand,
soon in life you’ll live or die by these two hands.
Blistered, bruised and crushed and yet I was only a teen,
I remember looking at my mom early and her not knowing her son was already a fene,
you fought this battle early yourself and to see your children through it was beyond your dreams,
addicted, isolated, and beaten, by the pistol is how I earned my means.
Til one day I heard the truth be told,
how it was by these two hands a new foundation was laid,
blistered, bruised and crushed is how the story would unfold,
This is how they hung you by these two hands,
trust and follow and I’ll show you a new way,
Victory was won by these two hands.
It is to you I humbly pray,
Thank you Lord for that glorious day,
that with these two hands I can humbly sway,
searching and finding anyone who will turn your way.
God grabbed me out of a childhood riddled with severe abuse and drug addiction. I was a full-blown addict by the age of 8/9 starting off with marijuana and Adderall. My criminal career started at the same time where I received my first charge for theft at 9. As my addiction grew so did my crimes. I grew into an addiction of meth, opium, prescription drugs, cocaine and alcohol and switched back and forth between them all with alcohol always being my constant. I’ve faced charges ranging from harassment to attempted murder witnessing my first murder by the age of 12. At this point I was bounced around states, families, custody arrangements and schools. Graduated high school by 16 with a severe meth and alcohol problem. Came to know the Lord at 18 when I found the Romans road on the computer at my moms house where I knelt in prayer asking the Lord to save me. 2 weeks later I was baptized at Orchard Street Baptist Church in Elsmere, Kentucky. Still struggling with addiction I went to Crossroads Rescue Mission in Shelby, North Carolina where I grew in knowledge of my salvation and God. Moved back to Colorado after, got married, had 2 children, Josiah and Isaac and when difficulties arose through the marriage my ex wife divorced me and I ran back to my previous life. I spent 5 years in severe isolation in Kentucky drinking and using. I felt lost and cheated by God and the church.
Through constant bible reading through this time I came to severely question John 14:6 that Jesus was the way, the truth and the life. Through my battle with this verse I left all in Kentucky, moved to Kansas with no expectation of anything but a renewed heart and devotion towards God and to search and find Him and my children at all cost. This led me to the Berean Bible Fellowship where with the help of Pastor Jim and this fellowship of believers I’ve been strengthened, encouraged, renewed and sober. I know peace as I’ve never known it before thanks be to God. I started this journey homeless living out of the back of my van and have been blessed beyond measure. If any question if God is real and can dynamically change someone’s life, look no further. I was the type society gave up all hope, abandoned to a life of jail, institutions, and addiction. God can take any life and transform them into a loving child of Him.
