Like I said since my baptism in waters many battles came up. Those friends were still persevering. They wouldn’t leave me alone. I grew so tired of it. I made a mistake there… I tried to solve the problem by myself. I was frustrated because I wanted to be faithful to God. I had a fear of messing with God. Then one day I pray to God. I said I couldn’t do it…I asked Him to guide me and give me strength. I knew that alone it would be impossible but with God by my side... I would be able to do it. From that on I stopped using my emotions and I used my special weapon. My faith. Those so called friends stopped bothering me one by one. In church I gave my all… but now I did it because I wanted to not because I had to keep my “saint” image. Let’s fast forward to summer 2009. With no school and nothing to do, I was expecting my summer to be boring. But boy was I wrong…my summer was amazing. To start with I started to go to church every day and stay there helping. I had my sisters in faith with me, and nothing was more joyful than be at church. My spiritual life grew tremendously… I became interested in serving God. Even though I was a teacher in the Kids Zone. I wanted to do something more. So my whole summer was being in church.=) A big opportunity to get even closer to God came on August. The YPG Summer Camp- John 3:16 Camp made a difference in my life. 3 days where the main goal was to be closer to God. Great experience. 2 weeks after the camp; school came back and my biggest battle came. I knew that new people would come to my life, and the devil would try to throw me off my faith. My spiritual life was a good stage but I was still missing something. I wasn’t satisfied… I was missing God’s presence inside of me. That was my main goal…receive the Holy Spirit. It was a long journey…seeking Him with all my heart and soul. Praying like there was no tomorrow. Making sacrifices… sacrificing my will. In one beautiful October morning….
To be Continue…
God Bless You
