What I was

I'll keep this brief. I grew up in a small town in a bad environment. I came from a long line of alcoholism, and took that path myself throughout high school. I was able to squeak by and get my diploma, and move into the real world. One month I got into two car accidents and found myself broke, carless, and alone. My real father said I could move in with to get back feet back on the ground. 3,500 miles later I found myself looking through yahoo chat rooms trying to meet the local girls. I met a couple, but one in particular was a "Christian" and invited me to church with her. I figured if I gave a little, I could get a little. Fortunately she turned out be a little to strange for me, so I stopped pursuing. My older sister, who moved up with my real father several years earlier, was having serious issues with alcohol and was going to church. When she found out I wasn't going with that other girl she invited me with her, so I decided to go for her moral support and possibly meet some new girls. Several sermons later I found myself really relating, and being overcome with conviction for the selfish life I was living. I had never cared for anyone or anything at this point of my life, but it was as if God was calling me. So I went to the front of the church and began to weep and ask God for forgiveness. I decided to live for Christ in return for salvation.

This is just a blog about a man who wants to get closer to God. I will explain more about myself in another entry, but to keep it brief I believe that God is real and that we can not only know Him, but also interact with Him. I hope this can help you, but my main priority is to glorify God.
