 Before I was saved, I thought I had a good life.  I had a good job, a home, and the things that I thought made life enjoyable.  In all honesty, if you had asked me about God, I would probably have told you that it was all emotional.

However, some things have happened in my life that have caused me to rethink all that I had believed.   About two years ago  My wife left me.  We had been married for twelve years, and we have one son.  I felt abandoned and betrayed.  I went through bouts of depression and loneliness.  I felt as though my heart was broken.  I remember sitting in my house and thinking, “What am I going  to do?”  I felt sorry for myself and did not know which way to turn.

It was during this time that I really started seeking God.  I began praying and asking God for help.  God’s presence came to me in a way that I had never experienced!  He became real to me, and I knew without a doubt that He loved me.

God began to move mountains in my life. He made a way for my son and me to be together.  He has kept and protected us.  As God has blessed, I have been able to meet my financial obligations.   All of these things are solely because God cared for me.  He took those feelings of hopelessness, and He gave me strength.

I realize now how God has been watching over my son and me.   I have been so blessed to be surrounded by not only my family, but my church family as well.

If you are going through a hurting time, I would like to invite you to come to Liberty Worship Center.  I believe you will find people that will pray with you as they have ministered to me.  Your trials may be different than what I have gone through,  but  I serve a God that can see you through whatever problems or hurts you are facing.  I have found my Heavenly Father to
be REAL and ALIVE!  He has become my best friend.

No matter what time of night or day it is, I can call onHim.  I know that I have hope and a future in Christ Jesus, and He can do this for you!   God bless you.
