1) I was saved on the 18th of September, 2009. I sobbed like a baby. This was the day I met a woman in a tiny little coffee shop in Ringgold that had said she'd take me into her home, knowing next to nothing about me, to get me away from my drug addicted mother. That woman has been such a huge blessing in my life.

2) I joined the church I now attend on the 25th of October, 2009. It is also the day I was baptized. Maybe that doesn't sound like such a big deal, but please note that I'm pansexual. I had thought people at the church knew and a few did. Two days before I was supposed to join it became a very big deal and I was worried about not being allowed to join or being the reason one of my close friends left the church. By the end of it, he not only remained at the church but came up on stage with me when I was baptized. It is probably one of the most amazing days of my life.

3) I used to say GD more than I should. Now I think it, but I feel guilty, and when I hear it I wince.

4) I am pretty much homeless. They call me 'the church hobo' because I house-hop from one church member's home to the next. I hate not having a place to call home, but...like, I've learned so much about the people in my church family this way that I never dreamed I would have connected with in any other way.

5) I'm secretly trying to drag all my non-believing friends to church. Not even really to try to get them saved, but just to have fun and so that I don't feel so alone.

6) I feel like all my church friends hate me or are on their way to hating me. Like, now that I'm saved and their 'work is done' they don't need to have anything more to do with me. I hope it's not true, but it sure feels that way...

7) I'm not excited for Christmas. Not one bit. I feel bad about it. My first Christmas as a Christian, what does that say about me?

8) I have a mission trip to Costa Rica coming up soon that I'm hoping will help me truly find myself. I've changed so much within a year but...there's still something that isn't right inside of me and I'm scared it's going to tear me away from God. I'm hoping Costa Rica will mend that gap.

9) I cried when my friend told me he had decided to be Atheist.

10) I want so badly to share my testimony, but God is telling me to sit. Wait. Be silent. Not yet. I'm excited because it must be something grand coming.
