Since I've trusted Christ, I am now a more respectful person. God's word has taught me how to be humble and how to respect others. I've been forgiven not only by him, but by other people and by family members who for time after time would have nothing to say to me. I learned how to pray and to be very thankful for what I have and don’t have. I've been blessed in so many ways. The Lord knew with my court case that I was not guilty and because of my past record, and my charge, people tried to get me to say guilty and accept the consequences. But I kept feeling this feeling and felt it was God telling me – I've got you, I'm carrying you.

I have asked Jesus to come into my life. My mother knew I was going away for a long time and she told me to put it in God's hand. And that I did, but not pleading guilty as God was telling me. God fixed this situation, but he had to keep me close to him and keep me on the right path si I believe that he allowed this adversity in my life so that he can give me the plans he has for my life and make and keep me a strong servant of him.
