My Testimony: (We encourage members to share briefly about how their faith in Christ has impacted their lives.)

I was raised in the Church, but didn't know the God who I was raised to love. Sitting on the pew every Sunday, reading the Bible, praying, occasionally fasting, giving to charities - A big "to-do" list that makes people believers, right? When I was about five or six years old, I accidentally flipped the remote to the DVD channel where I was 1st exposed to porn. And just like that, my innocence was taken from me. All the years filled with lust, trying to find value within myself from boys,the insecurity from my looks, A dead Church I hated that taught universal messages... Hmm... When I moved to a different state &got under the preaching of people on fire for God, I rededicated my life to Christ at the altar after seeing a production put on about Hell. And for the first time ever, my lust for XXX bothered me! I starting noticing symptoms like easy irritation, fear, grossness, confusion, etc. It was to the point where I wanted to commit suicide, but was scared to out of fear of going to Hell. I thought God HATED me. But after finally hearing the testimony of another Christian female who was oppressed from the same oppression, I finally understood what I needed to do. I found the courage to tell my loved ones around me about it, and pray prayers of deliverance. More the once, because it took me some time to realize that Jesus wasn't going to let me live separate from Him after freeing me again. XD So from 2015 onward, I've been on this journey of finding out who God really is for myself through His Word & prayer. I now know that having a relationship with God isn't about going to a building every week, reading a book, paying extra attention to outer appearances, or thinking about all the things we can DO. It's not being apart of a religion, but instead, having a relationship with the Creator of everything. So here I am, aiming to focus on my Savior everyday. It's not easy, I'm far from flawless, and I don't get everything right. But I keep going anyways, because in the end? Jesus is worth fighting for. And NOTHING is better than Him. <3
