On the trail of Jesus

And all the day we hunted and nothing we could find,
but a book speaking the word of god
and I dare not leave it behind.

For a long time I thought about being a Christian. Most of my friends either thought I was or thought the idea was absurd. For me the idea was absurd. I openly chose to not partake in what I did not believe in. . . And at the moment I didn't believe in god. That's until I met a guy called Aaron or A.P for short. A.P is a mad beat-boxer and can bust-a-rhyme pretty good when he wants to. Anyway, my dear sister convinced me to come to a Christian camp for a week of hardcore god lovin' bible thumpin' great times. I was thoroughly convinced I wouldn't become a Christian at that time. I just wasn't into that kindof thing. Well while I was there I met A.P the best guy ever in my opinion and he played big part in leading me to god. One night at altar call we had this sortof open mic for anyone who wanted to say something. And so I, after much urging form my companions went up to speak my peace. I got a very large round of applause on the way up which kept up my confidence and stopped me from backing out. And hen I was up there infront of so many people I found I could say what was on my mind. I thanked them all for being there and told them I had a great time at the camp(which I did) and at the end I found myself yelling at the top of my lungs GOD ROCKS!!! and then I knew that I was a Christian through and through and all the doubt I had was gone. And I felt the best I'd felt ever. As I walked back to my seat I felt uplifted at the round of applause I got. noone knew I was a Christian then but I knew it and god knew it and that was all that mattered. I'd just like to say thanks to all the people who helped me find God A.P, Cathleen, Tegan and all the others. I'll never forget you.

  • Hey dude, this, this is encouraging. I thank God for you all the time... I prayed for you for years... and now it's for real. It's almost hard to believe. So now it's the three of us, you, me and shannon. And we'll all party it up in heaven with Jesus. What fun.

    Much love bro.
