Story #53

I started going to COTM when I was 13 with my parents. I didn’t really have a strong faith because I really never understood what it meant. I just thought people went to church to do the right thing.
As I got older, our visits to church got less and less. I started partying all the time and doing things I am not proud of.
As time went on, things started to really fall apart. My parents fought all the time, my siblings were out of control, and I just felt alone all the time. I felt there was no meaning to life and my purpose here was a waste.
When my thoughts were too much for me to handle, I broke down and I prayed to God. I prayed he would show me the way and he did. I went to COTM by myself that next Sunday and when the invite came to know Jesus, I took that step. I have to say it has been the best thing ever to happen to me because I finally found life. God has touched my heart and I see the great things he is doing in my life and I am forever thankful.
