Hello everybody.
I have recently dedicated my life to God. I turned to him in the midst of a bout of deep depression, and he revealed himself to me in my hours of darkness. It came after a few days of praying. I met a stranger at the park while I was playing with my nephew at a birthday party for my niece. He began talking about God and invited me to his church the following day. Doing such a thing was completely out of character for me, but I went, because at that moment God was directly answering my prayers. When I attended the church service, the pastor spoke extensively about the crippling effects of depression. I now currently attend another church with my sister and her family every week. So although the other church didn't ultimately feel like the right fit for me, I heard the message that God intended me to hear that day!
So, after years of living by my own selfish ways, God has responded to my prayers with grace and love. I have been trying to figure out his purpose for me these past few weeks. I had a dream that I am to write a play based on actual experiences people have had concerning God's grace and second chances. His grace even led me to this website! I had no idea where to begin looking, so I thought I would post an ad on Craigslist. I decided to check out the "Writing" section first to see what kinds of ads were posted there, and at the VERY TOP of the screen was an ad with a link to this site! It was at the top even though it was almost 2 months old! So as I write this, I am more convinced than I was before that I am following the path God intends for me. So if anybody would like to share their personal stories of salvation with me, please feel free to contact me! I look forward to hearing from all of you!
Thank you,
Josh
