Turning Point

Some months back, I came to Christ and had a very close relationship with Him but I had fallen and was not really concerned about getting up again. The fallen life had too many snares and pleasures.

About two months ago I had come to a very deep pit, my mind was numb, my emotions were wiped out. Financially it was bad, my family had fallen apart. I had failed as a brother, I had failed as a son. I have caused so much damage and pain in the lives of the people that mattered the most to me, my family.

One day I received a video clip that made me realise that God does still love me, He loves me as I am. I called on Jesus and I called and called. I think it must have been the prayer with the least words I have ever uttered. He came, he had always been there, I was just blind to it.

Now through Christ and with His mercy alone, I have asked my family for forgiveness and said to them I will become the son and brother they deserve and that I will do this through Christ.

Everyday is a challenge but as the days go by, they get easier. With God on my side, I find it easier. Prayers are being answered. My Life is slowly being healed, my family is being healed, all through the grace of the living God.  - Arome A
