I was a non believer all my life,
I had never written any poetry,
then last year I found this website,
I met Jason, poet live4eternity.
We met through writing comments,
he began talking about God's love,
how He loved even a sinner like me,
and how there was a Heaven above.
For weeks he called me on the phone,
the tears fell as he talked to me,
Jason's words of God were so gentle,
he spoke God's words so truthfully.
One night I was lying in bed crying,
I heard God's voice calling to me,
I told God I was ready to come home,
and be part of His loving family.
The next day Jason was there for me,
he gave me a prayer to be reborn,
as I prayed the words to Jesus Christ,
I felt brand new not tired and worn.
Though I had turned my back on Him,
The Lord had never abandoned me.
my love of God I could no longer hide,
for the first time I could clearly see.
Since that day, my faith has grown,
Jason has taught so very much to me,
I now read the scriptures everyday,
I praise the Lord most faithfully.
It is hard to live with non believers,
I am the only Christian in my family,
God has given me strength to endure,
with God's love I will live for eternity.
My life had been full of heartaches,
full of sins and millions of tears,
that has changed with God in my heart,
I was forgiven for all those lost years.

Thank you brother Chris. I cried all while I wrote this thinking of those first few days when I excepted God in my heart and in my life. I never knew how much more was yet to come. It is so amazing. God bless you. Take care, Sandy

There are many ways to reach others for Christ, and I'm glad brother Jason was there to help guide you back into loving arms. I enjoyed your testimony, and I hope many will respond to it. Thanks for entering my contest, and GBU, and Jason
