When ask to write my salvation story I right off the bat started to think of more moving or exciting events that have took place over the years as I have tried to walk with Christ. As I prayed about what to write thinking of events that altered my walk or even gave it a renewed sense of awe. God said to my heart to share the quiet simple story of a child. I was 9 or 10 years old at a tent revival at Central Baptist. I really don’t remember much about what the speaker had to say other than he preached on John chapter 3 about a man called Nicodemus. Nicodemus came to Jesus at night and Jesus told him of how the only way to get to heaven was to be born again. The speaker also spoke of how God gave His only Son and whoever believes in Him shall have eternal life. Those are the two main points that stuck in my head. The second thing that I remember more vivid than anything was walking down the aisle as they sang “Have Thine Own Way Lord”. I will never forget the feeling that night I was 10 foot tall and bullet proof for I knew GOD was with me. This is by no means the most moving or exciting story I could tell from a readers stand point, but as GOD reminded me today, as for me, it’s my most important story!
