New Dawning Ministry

The time I’ve felt loved is when I had an encounter with Jesus back in year of 2000. The year or 2 before this, I would walk to clock-in at work and ask if ‘God’ is real and who He is. I was in a bad relationship for 6 years and was feeling so very dead inside that I couldn’t stand to go home unless I was drinking on the way home. There were 2 Catholics at work that helped me grow bold enough to stand up and walk out of that relationship.  But even more than this, I started to feel some eerie happenings that I have a hard time explaining, but that God, Jesus, was trying to contact me in some fashion.

When I came to the realization that, indeed, Jesus is Lord, God, and Savior of the world, I had peace and finally felt a love that I never knew before.  And to know that He chose me to do a task for Him, because I had said that I would do anything if He showed me that He is real and who He is, was the greatest feeling. I didn’t know what the task was, but I knew that when one promises a thing to God, one must complete it or face some bad consequences.  But just knowing that what I’ve been taught all those years, that there is a God and He is Jesus was enough for me to do whatever He wanted me to do.

Now say what you may, but the scar around my neck is just a small sign of what I promised to do. No one understood why I did what I did, as they don’t understand Jesus as I came to understand Him.

But now, I’m just living proof of a love that rises above all others.  The epitome of a living sacrifice.
