Born again believer in October 2020, the Lord has changed my life and called me to ministry. I share about my journey as a new creation in Jesus Christ and how He has changed me as well as conversations with others about Jesus. My ultimate goal is to bring Jesus to people so that they may know of his saving grace. God is good!

In October 2020 everything around me felt like it was falling apart. COVID headlines, earthquakes, volcanoes, riots, talk of famine and wars — the world felt loud, chaotic, and terrifying. My anxiety was through the roof. I was searching for answers, and I had no idea that the God of the universe was about to reach down and change my life forever.

Before Jesus found me, my life was far from the church pew. I was trapped in paganism and witchcraft, hanging around people and places that only deepened the emptiness I felt. My roommates were two gay men; I went to drag shows and bars. I numbed myself with video games and Netflix for hours. I was divorced, unemployed, without a car, and mostly alone — just me and my cat. I even dabbled in amateur hacking and found myself in situations that fed my fear and paranoia. My nights were full of unsettling dreams. I thought I was self-sufficient, but inside I was broken and desperate.

Everything came to a head when I checked myself into the hospital for mental health. I wasn’t on drugs or alcohol — I was simply overwhelmed with fear and convinced someone was after me. In a private room, surrounded by people who wanted to help, a single name came to my mind: “YHWH” — Yahweh. They looked at me puzzled; I didn’t know why that name surfaced. I only knew I had to call it out.

So I did. I started calling on the name of God, and I began to seek Him with everything in me. I wanted proof. I wanted to know if God cared about my mess, my fear, my loneliness. I prayed, honestly and desperately. And He answered.

God showed up in ways I couldn’t explain. I heard Him in my heart. I heard Him audibly — like a whisper of rushing water — and every time doubt crept in He gently reinforced His presence. He exposed the error of my ways but did so with mercy, not condemnation. He walked me through conviction, not shame. I repented — truly repented — of promiscuity, occult practices, and everything else that had kept me chained. I promised God I would never go back.

Then He asked me two life-changing questions: Would I follow Him? Would I work for Him? I answered yes to both — without hesitation. I surrendered control and gave my life to Jesus. I was born again.

Since that day, Jesus has been faithful. He has restored things I thought were gone forever. My anxiety has largely lifted in a world still full of chaos. He miraculously healed me of diabetic nephropathy — a moment that confirmed to me His power and compassion in tangible ways. He’s been healing my heart, rebuilding trust, and growing my faith day by day. I now have friends and a family in Christ. I have purpose: I am called to ministry and to tell others about Jesus’ saving grace.

My story is simple but real: Jesus saves. Jesus heals. Jesus restores. If you’re reading this and feeling lost, let me say it plainly — He can set you free too. Repent, turn from a life that hurts you, and accept the free gift of salvation through Jesus Christ. When you are truly born again, God reorders your desires. Sin loses its grip and righteousness becomes desirable. With God’s help, you cannot fail.

We aren’t promised tomorrow. If God is tugging at your heart, don’t wait. Seek Jesus with all your heart today. He changed my life in October 2020 — He can change yours.
