I was just a freshman in highschool. I was okay with life, home life could have been better, friends could have been funner, school could have been easier. Everyday I would go to school then home,school, and home again. Thats what my life consisted of. One day at school someone told me about R.O.C. at GVCC. I told them I would go. Monday came around and I was at Gvcc. I didnt think it was all fun and I didnt really want to learn about jesus. It wasnt until I left that I saw Tanner wrestling with these boys. It reminded me of my brother and I. Well how my brother and I were so close and we would always wrestle. I wanted that back more than anything. Well those days were over. Once my parents split up for a year Kyle my brother are relationship had changed. We grew apart. It had devasted me. He was my bestfriend. We did everything together. I never trusted anyone since my parents split up. I was a new person after the split up. I wanted to gain that relationship back with my brother and I thought church could teach me. So I started attending church on saturdays and sundays. Saturday I came to church and it was not a good time in life home life was not good friends had been pressuring me into bad things, brother was constantly yelling at me for every little thing I did wrong, I was hurting myself mentally for not being good enough for everyone else around me. I walked in and the song marvelous light started. I was watching the side screens. The words of the song moved me. Durning the song my whole body was tingly I felt as if god was holding me the whole time. By the end of the song I was sitting in the holy orange chairs crying. I realized that when im singing these songs that I forget about everything that was going on in my life. I forget about the pain that I was just feeling before I got to church. That night was the night that changed my life. I was was now a child of god. Ever since that night I went to church as much as possible. Now a days im there everyday helping out as much as I can. Green valley church is my home away from home. I cant thank god enough everyday for what he has done in me throught out this year. I have become a christian girl who is slowly re gaining her relationship with her brother and showing christ to him and hoping one day it will be back to normal.
