| About Me: | I'm only 30 , so don't expect a lifechanging testimony . I had a great childhood . I was raised in the nurture and admonition of the Lord, but like a lot of teens , I went crazy for awhile . I 'm back now though , and I'm married with children . I'm hoping God will have mercy on me and teach me what to do and where to go in my life . In the mean time , I'm just trying to be a good husband and Daddy . I don't want to waste anymore time , and I'm not the type of guy to beat around the bush , so I hope you all know Jesus , and I'll try to bring a little piece of me to this page for the glory of God . |
