Page 6 of 8 I was saved was in June 2002, and it was by 2003 that my life really began to take off, I just started college that year, and things were so much better there. As I drew closer and closer to God, many of the problems I had in my life before started to fade away, over time, I have quit marijuana, drinking, all through prayer and the power of God. The Holy Spirit was upon my family, I knew this because they started to change, I was able to get along with my Dad better, whom, in the past, I always had problems with, and we always got into arguments, yelling at each other. I would always be in tears and shame; I would even run away from home sometimes to try to escape this. I gained more confidence, and self-esteem, and I have a lot more friends now, who love me and care for me, and stay true and loyal to me, which surely made up for some of the friends I had in the past who would turn their back on me in a second for some popularity. I used to be a bit overweight too, and a lot of people made fun of me because of this, through all my life, so I prayed to lose weight, and I have, not only that, but I'm into weights and exercising now too, so I have gained some muscle. Probably a long while after I got saved, did I begin to go to church, there I made fellowship with other Christians, and I went there every Sunday, really learning about God.
