Hey my name is Justin and I live in Alaska as you can probably see. I saw this site adding me on myspace so I looked into it and I am looking for more people out there that keep their faith in God because iron sharpens iron, and we can all use sharpening. God is soooo good, He has took my family by storm and passion. This man named Jesus died on a cross for me? Wow how great a symbol of love. Without that sacrifice we wouldn't be able to understand his everlasting and perfect love.
My Testimony
Well I was raised in a christian family under strict religious rules. My father is a great man and he only wanted good for us, but he showed us the wrath of God rather than His awesome love. He sat me down one day when I was 10 and said the prayer of salvation with me but it wasn't from my heart. I thought I was saved boy was I wrong. I fell away from everything because I never surrendered. So in fear of christianity, God, religion, and many more things I turned my back on the most perfect and awesome truth I would ever find in my life. I tried to search for happiness and fullfillment in drugs, money, girls, relationships, and just having what I used to call "fun". I moved to Anchorage about 8 months ago and the bar scene here is huge so that's what I got into. One day my roommate was like let's go to church. So I went and it was good. Then I started going by myself every weekend, trying to build a one on one relationship with the creator of this earth. It was not easy starting out and I was still struggling with trying to serve Him. Then I was talking to my brother and telling him I was having a hard time understanding eveything, then he said "maybe you haven't been saved" I was like yeah right, but I stopped one day when I pulled in my garage, shut the door, and closed my eyes and said from the bottom of my heart"Lord forgive me for I have turned from you and your holiness, I am a dirty filthy sinner and I need you to save me right now." At that very moment it felt like living water ran through the deepest parts of my soul and lifted a burden I never knew existed. God baptized me and filled me with His mighty Holy Spirit. I was histerical with this feeling of fire he had filled me with. I called my mom and brother and told them. My brother did not when this had happened, but he said" I was praying for you 45 minutes ago sooo hard." I freaked out because I had come face to face with true salvation 45 minutes prior to our conversation. Saved by faith in 2 ways, Wow I saw the signs because I first believed. After I got saved I was a completely different person. Proverbs 22:6 reads"Train up a child in the way he should go, And when he is old he will not depart from it. What a blessing my parents have recieved just by my own self getting saved. Proving scriptures right and prophecies true. Let that fire burn deep, and walk, talk and move with fire.That's it I have many more stories if you'd like to hear them feel free to message me.

What would you say is your Spiritual gift?
Having no fear for whom shall I fear? The Lord is the strength of my life of whom shall I be afraid? Psalm 27
Since the Pledge of Allegiance
And
The Lord's Prayer
Are not allowed in most
Public schools anymore
Because the word 'God' is mentioned...
A kid in Arizona wrote the attached
NEW School prayer :
Now I sit me down in school
Where praying is against the rule
For this great nation under God
Finds mention of Him very odd.
If Scripture now the class recites, It violates the Bill of Rights.
And anytime my head I bow
Becomes a Federal matter now. Our hair can be purple, orange or green,
That's no offense; it's a freedom scene.
The law is specific, the law is precise.
Prayers spoken aloud are a serious vice.
For praying in a public hall
Might offend someone with no faith at all
In silence alone we must meditate,
God's name is prohibited by the state.
We're allowed to cuss and dress like freaks,
And pierce our noses, tongues and cheeks..
They've outlawed guns, but FIRST the Bible.
To quote the Good Book makes me liable.
We can elect a pregnant Senior Queen,
And the 'unwed daddy,' our Senior King. It's 'inappropriate' to teach right from wrong,
We're taught that such 'judgments' do not belong.
We can get our condoms and birth controls,
Study witchcraft, vampires and totem poles.
But the Ten Commandments are not allowed,
No word of God must reach this crowd.
It's scary here I must confess, When chaos reigns the school's a mess.
So, Lord, this silent plea I make:
Should I be shot; My soul please take!
Amen
If you aren't ashamed to do this,
Please pass this on.
Jesus said,
'If you are ashamed of me,
I will be ashamed of you before my Father.'
that's cute. Well i was raised going to church...went to church camps and all that good stuff. i went through some hard times and kinda turned my back thinking "why did he let this happen to me?" (god that is) but i bounced back...i just got out of a engagement also and again thought why does god want me to hurt so much, but i know that with every door closed another is opening. i know he was not intended for me and my son...so yeah, waiting for that great christian God fearing man!!!
