What lead me to the Lord? I was in a marriage based on parties; girls and I felt like I didn’t have an identity for myself. I was referred to as “the wife” instead of being called my actual name. I was very empty and I started praying and seeking God for answers which lead me to a sister who invited me to another church to one of the services at her church. I already had a church affiliation but I was not a committed member. I was looking for something to complete me, I felt like I need more out of life. I started going to bible study at this sister’s house and went to a few services at the church she attended which brought me closer to God. I felt the desire to be more a part of the church and to shy away from “the world”. One Sunday, I went to church and after the message the pastor did an altar call asking “if God were to come right now, would you be ready”? I felt like this was specifically for me, I got up, went to the altar and was asked if I wanted to get baptized. That’s how it all started. My desire at this point is to encourage anyone who is having the same emptiness that I felt and hoping that they find peace in God as I have. It most definitely is not easy as the bible does state, but it requires faithfulness and persistence as God will see you through.
