I used to think that there really was no reason to tell my testimony because nothing drastic really happened in my life. But then I realized that in any testimony something drastic happens…your life is changed because you are now a child of God’s. So here is my testimony.

I have grown up in a Christian family as many of you already know. I was surrounded by a loving family and a comfortable church. At age five, I told my mom that I wanted to get saved. I remember her calling my dad at work to tell him to come home. I accepted Christ that day in my living room. But at age eight I realized that I hadn’t completely understood what I was doing when I was five. So I rededicated my life to Christ.

Growing up in a Christian family has been such a great blessing. Every family has their hardships and sometimes I think ours are extra hard! But we get through them together and I couldn’t ask for a better Christian family. But sometimes because you are surrounded constantly and always hearing about God it becomes lukewarm in your life. That has been my struggle off and on throughout my whole life. But God is working in me and is always faithful.

As I mentioned earlier, I have been blessed with a great school and church. I have gone to Denbigh Baptist Christian School since kindergarten and have been very involved in the school and its sports. I love my church! I have gotten the opportunity to go on three mission trips with the youth group and each one has changed my life and taught me so much. My friends that I have made at school and church are great! I don’t know what I would have done without them!

Right now I am going to be a senior at DBCS and am looking forward to it. After this year comes college! I have no idea right now what college I will be going to but I am pretty sure that I am going to major in Elementary Education. That is the plan right now at least. God may have a different plan in store for my life.

So that is a brief story of my life. Much is left out and there is still much to happen, but maybe that will give you an idea of who I am!
