About Me

       One night, at the age of 21, while saying the same prayer I had been praying since childhood, “Now I lay my down to sleep…”, The Holy Spirit gently interrupted me and asked, “Why are you praying to Me when you don’t know Me…?” To which I emphatically replied, “Of course I know You… I went to a Christian for four years, 5th-8th grade and was forced to go to church for a few years with my mom…. I know all the stories of the Bible… Hey, I even use to learn a verse a week at school…!” The Holy Spirit replied, “Yes you know what others have told you about Me but you don’t know Me, you don’t have a Relationship with Me…!" I again emphatically replied, “But of course I know You cause, blah blah blah blah blah…!” Again the Holy Spirit gently replied, “You don’t know Me, you haven’t spend time reading My Word for yourself. You haven’t sat still and waited to hear My Voice. You pray to Me but to what end? You don’t know Me or My Nature and we don’t have a relationship. If you’re going to pray to Me then you should get know Me and you should read and know My Word and spend time you Me.” So I did what I was told, luckily I still had the Bible my mother had bought me in the 5th grade laying around. That was the day I chose Him. Not because someone told me to—but because He called me, and I finally answered. Now up to this point in my life I really had no real interest in having a relationship with God, even though He had already touched me twice and claimed me as His own from my youth, this was the first time I actively choose Him. Yes I was a professing Christian and even spoke to others about the importance of salvation but I had no actual relationship with The Creator. So I obeyed, dusted off my Bible and read and searched for relationship with Him. Immediately after reading His Word cover to cover He instructed me to read it again, To which I question if reading the entire Bible again since I had just read it, to which He replied, “Yes, you missed something…” Then again  shortly after the second straight through I was again instructed to read and again I questioned, “Even the boring parts like Leviticus, Numbers and Deuteronomy…?” Again He replied, “Yes you missed something…” The next two times and there after no questions just obedience. Now please understand this is not a brag, this is me emphasizing the importance of reading The Word for yourself and the importance of forming that One on One relationship with The Most High… This is what He wants for all His Children.

Then five days after my 26th birthday and 11 days before the birth of my son I was informed the I had Adult OnSet Muscular Dystrophy (LGMD), to which my neurologist informed me that this disease would either completely cripple or kill me, eventually  probably both and there is no cure. I looked him in his eyes and replied, “The devil is lie and all things are possible through My Lord and Savior and I will beat this disease.” Here we are 26 years later and I still hold to that even though due to complications 3 years I became wheelchair bound. I still believe that healing and complete health restoration is possible and no one and nothing can convince me otherwise, my faith has never wavered, not because of denial, but because of the unshakable Word of God. Now with that said of course if it be His Will, if not His Will then so be it, His Will has a greater purpose than I. Whether He heals me now or not, I trust His will. His purpose exceeds my understanding, and I surrender to it fully. Then a few years later a specialist informed me that I actually have two forms of LGMD. He did also inform me that I also showed rare, inexplicable, healthy muscle cells which shouldn’t be the case, His words. Now being diagnosed with Muscular Dystrophy after being an athlete all my life turned my world upside down. Now Muscular Dystrophy itself is a neurological disease where in which the body stops producing then necessary proteins to build and sustain health muscle production and function and the existing muscle cell would atrophy and waste away. Three years ago when I faced that set back I did lose my job and fell into a dark place temporarily.

\\After fighting to return to work for a while The Holy Spirit gently whispered maybe it’s time to stop chasing that life and focus on the mission I called you for, and here we are... I accept this Stewardship of The Word with the humblest of hearts, it is a calling I do not take lightly. I believe there is no greater calling than to be in service to The Most High. Called and led by The Holy Spirit is all to humbling so with great care I with steward His Word and advance His Kingdom.  I have no greater desire than to serve His people, advance His Kingdom, and steward His truth with excellence and awe.
