As I look back through the years of my life, as far back as I can go, I can see where God was involved in every experience of my life. Some, I knew He was there, but some I didnt realize , but He was still there. I want my born again readers to be aware of Gods presence in all their everyday life.
I am 77 years old and accepted Christ in my life at age 15 during a revival at my home church. I was never a bad boy, but God showed me how unworthy I really was, until I accepted Him in my life. Now, that doesnt mean everything has been perfect since then, far from it. Ive said things and done things I shouldnt have, but with repentance, God is always gracious to forgive us. So Im still a sinner saved by grace. As I look back to my younger life, I find that God was always with me. Reminds me of the poem FOOT PRINTS,when there was two sets of footprints, God was walking with me, but when there was only one set of footprints, God was carrying me. But it wasnt always during the tough times God had to carry me. There were times when I thought I had everything in control and was doing well, but wasnt necessarily in Gods will. Even in those times God was there to put me back in line and let me know He was still there. It was easy for me to lead a good christian life in my young days, because my parents attended church regularly. God lead me into music at a young age. I started leading music in church, learned to play guitar, and sang in a teenage quartet. Music remained and continued to be a major part of my life.view less
