A few weeks ago me and 11 other high school youth with 5 sponsors went onto a missions trip 13+ hours away. By going God taught me a lesson, which is if God calls you to do something He WILL provide! I had many obstacles preventing me from going, such as work, the only person being able to cover for me had school the days I worked, I had gotten into a wreck, I couldn't afford to go, and I was afraid. God took care of all of that and told me that I'm going! There we had beach evangelism and then after that we held a backyard bible club for elementary kids. The 3 days we were there 10 people came to Christ on the beach and 27 kids AND PARENTS came to Christ through the backyard bible study!!! The parents only spoke Spanish so how did they get saved? God provided a translator! If God calls you to do something he will provide!!! Now not only did He provide for us to go, or to have a translator, but now we have the evangelizing skills and Scripture with us to go and evangelize in school! God is good!! If 12 high school kids can make that big of a difference what can YOUR Church do? If God calls you to do it, he will provide for it! :)

All of my friends would drink smoke and club, it wasn't untill recently that we got committed to the lord. one day my old friends from church got in touch with me and asked if I wanted to go to bible study. I went and relized how much I missed that connection so they invited me to church. I was living with my sister at the time and her boyfriend a few weeks before this he tried something with me. I had been dealing with a lot of drama and felt alone. We go to church I didn't know it was in spanish so I wasn't really payin attention untill the end the pastor had evryone go up to the front. He starts to speak english sayin the holy spirit is telling him to and says someone in here is hurting and being put down then he says there are 2 girls in here being sexually abused physical mentally or emotionally. I broke down because I knew that was the lord saying he is here for me. After I got back from church the lord gave me the strength to tell my sisters boyfriend to leave me alone. I try and live for him thru his holy spirit evryday now and my worldly friends have also been stayin on his path too. God is great!

Ask & you shall receive! My boyfriend & I were in a relationship for 4yrs. He was the only man I ever wanted to marry. However,his view of marriage was a little different than mine. Having come out of a marriage battled and bruised he decided it was not for him. I! on the otherhand had never been married. It was a discussion between the both of us that seem pointless on MOST occasions. Well I made a decision to move forward feeling conquered and heartbroken, we seperated. We remained close with lunch dates and daily phones calls but it wasnt going anywhere. We ended up having 1 of those arguments trying to decide to let it go completely or make it work. I told him its over! I was conquered, crying, lost and confused. I said these words out loud the next day, unable to stop crying, Lord give me the strength or give me a sign I am making the right decision. 15mins. later, literally, my boyfriend was standing at my door asking for my hand in marriage! This september will be our 1st anniversary. I must say though Im truly blessed by my lord, my husband IS God given!!

So last year I went through my worst depression yet. It was horrible. I felt so alone even though I tried telling myself that Jesus was still there. I fell back into my old habits of cutting, I even went as far as writing a suicide note to my best friend. I wanted to die, I mean I was saved and I believed that I would go to heaven so why not go where I was loved and happy. Tyler, my bestie, flipped, he was worried sick. We live in different states so he was calling everyone in my town freaking out making sure I was okay. Then is when I really felt loved. Everyone seemed to care. I decided not to kill myself. After promising Tyler that I would no longer cut I began to sink farther into depression. At camp this year I rededicated myself to God and realized he was there the whole time asking me to come back home to him. And it felt great you know to be on terms with God. I still felt a little alone though and felt like no one knows what I was going through. My friends now keep me accountable and have started looking for things to let me know I am not alone. Now anytime I feel a little alone I listen to one of their recommended songs. And coincidentally they all play on Air1. So I just want to say thanks for letting me know I'mnotalone.

I am 29 years old, I am single mom of two beautifull girls 10 and 8. My youngest has downs syndrom and my oldest is just as special. They are the reason I get up in the morning. I couldn't ever figure out what was missisng from my life until my oldest daughter two years ago decided she wanted to be baptized. I remember looking up to her and being so proud, I have never been baptized. This year I have struggled so much and it feels like I won't ever break free until I started going to church again. I am letting my guard down and trying to just open my heart to god. Relying on someone besides myself. I found air 1 on accident I heard Stephanie smith's not afraid and felt like I could do anything. From that day on Air 1 in on my car stereo and house radio and I love it. Thank you for being on the air the music and words and stories make my day I am trying to be a better person and a real christian and hope to be baptized this year. Pray for me if you will.

For The last 3 Years I was living for myself. I did what I want when I wanted. One of my best friends that has been by my side since I could remember he got my to go to a bible study. I didn't want to be there I remember sitting in the chair with my arms crossed the whole time.
Finely one of the girls in the group came up to me and said that God told her to tell me that he loves me and its never to late to come back to Jesus. God met me there that night and everyone in the bible study prayed for me.
I'm now back in church and have never been happier. It's funny how something so huge can come from something as little as bringing someone to a bible study or to church and just showing them the love of Christ, sometimes. . . Thats all it takes. Its never to late. Jesus loves you.

Back when I was eight, my step dad went to prison. My mom still married him after that, which i don't think was the best decision, now that I'm older and i understand more. My dad got remarried also. I never really thought my step mom liked me. They were/are seperated for awhile, and even when they were together i got neglected by the both of them. I started going back to my old church with my good friend. I found so many people that really care for me, and would do anything for me. It's like their filling the gap that my parents never have and it feels great. Many people prayed for me, and God is really starting to turn things around. He is helping me realize the important things in life. I just love the people at this church I go to. The sense of the Holy Spirit is great here, and I think it's amazing. God really helped me to realize that I ALWAYS have Him; even when i think i'm all alone. I'm standing on Romans 5:3-5, which really helps me get through the day. God is amazing, and without Him in my life, I don't know where I would be right now, and how I would handle anything. Such a amazing God we have! :)

While on military leave, I decided to take a trip to my hometown in Virginia before being deployed next year. I havent been living for Christ for the past few years, & ive been ignoring my family's witnessings to me. However, just this morning, i had breakfast with a family friend and i can tell God was speaking through him to witness to me!! I was immediately convicted, and when i came back to my motel room, i got down on my hands and knees and asked Him to come back into my life!! I thank God for allowing him to witness to me and speaking through him! Please pray for my walk as I may grow stronger in Christ and as i am about to be deployed overseas.
