One of the tag lines a minister uses when they preach is keep it real.  My story begans when I fell to the decetive words of my silibings laughing at me because I was so strange. From my youth I have always had a deep love for Christ Jesus. Every time  I thought someone would pass I wanted to go with them to church to meet Jesus. This did not go well with my brother and sisters. It made my mother afraid. So in time I wanted to be the worlds normal. Not knowing just how unique I was. Time passed when I was old enough, big enough  and foolish enough I truned my back on God looking to be normal and happy. I can't explain  the darkness, shame, hopeleness all I found.  Not everything but enough to know that my soul was feeling the  pains of hell. I faught to get to God but I did not know which road to take, every road running into itself; when I had set my mind to give up and give in. see for me I realize to live for God is life no matter how strange it may seem or who laughs. To live a life of darkness is a foolish life. On the night I planed to give up God caught me in the midist of my fall. HALLELUJAH! My life has never been the same. I'm not here to same rose petals hae carpted my ever step No. That would be a lie. But Jesus Christ has been there through thick and thin. And for this I'm greatful. To everone I meet I encourage you don't be ashamed of  Jesus Christ. Because  HE is not ashamed of you.
