Some people think I’m a dingbat. They also may believe I am stupid, weird, or even a crazy person because of my commitment to Jesus and for the things I have witnessed and have received God’s giftings for.
But that is okay.
In my life, I’ve successfully been a:
dishwasher and cook (1986-1990),
an aircraft F/A/D-14 & F/A -18 technician for the Navy (1990-1995),
a portrait photographer (1995-1996),
a maintenance mechanic (1996-1997);
an industrial electrician and a robot technician (1997-1999).
I’ve been an IT technical engineer (1999-2006),
an IT technical manager (2006-2009), and an IT Healthcare project and program manager working with doctors, nurses, and the brightest medical and executive staff you can hope to work with implementing Electronic Healthcare Records for hospitals throughout the US. (2009-2014).
Then, in 2014, it all ended. I had lost my career, my hope, my faith, my belief that things would be okay. I was chronically depressed and bordering suicide. Oh, how I was lost and in a depression that I did not think I would survive. For four years I floundered and the only people who did not desert me through it was my wife and family. They stuck with me. I thank God for them, especially my wife, every day!
In 2018, I met someone I chose to follow and dedicate my life to for the remainder. To be a living sacrifice to Him, in support of what He showed me for these past years. He saved me, my family, and continues to revelate what is to come and prepare me for an eternal life with Him as my God.
His name is Jesus Christ.
The great I am that I am. The eternal, almighty, omniscient, omnipresent, alpha and omega Himself chose to reveal Himself to ME to use as a living vessel for His Holy Spirit. And on the couch in my own house I was baptized by His Spirit AND Fire!
Now, I no longer call my life or career as a lost cause, but I know that I had to come to an end so that I may fulfill the purpose God has chosen me for and to become a new creation in Christ.
I’ve seen the miracles and amazing spiritual gifts written about in the Bible come true and these that only He can give. And He is the reason for the change of the person you know me as today. And to the world, it’s foolishness! To my past relationships who knew me in my sin, it’s ridiculous. It’s bonkers! But it is right, it is good, and it is also for others to have as a gift.
Since 2018, the Lord has shown me wonderful and marvelous things. How the world works, why people are the way they are and they reason we are all here. He made everything I’ve ever known about the world unimportant and replaced my desires for it to only know Him and His kingdom so strong, I try to hold my self together thinking about the wonderful things He wants to reveal to ALL His children. What joy!
But, many are still not awake. They are in deception and a veil is over many of their minds and spiritual eyes to the truth of this world! It is fallen! Yes, it is temporary, but what we do while we are in it has eternal consequences!
So, I hope this post gives you more insight as to who I am, who God is (our savior), and what my hopes are to use this platform for; to save the lost, to teach about Him, to share testimonies of His goodness, faithfulness, and His truth.
The truth that Jesus did sacrifice Himself on that cross 2000 years to save the lost and dying world and that included you and me. But He did not just die, He was resurrected to reveal to all who He truly is, our living God and creator!
And He is still very active today! He’s training many all over the world who believe in Him, His ways and His thoughts. He is pursuing us all, in hopes we will not perish but have an everlasting life with Him once this life has concluded.
Jesus is the mighty God I serve and will do so until my physical body is done, and that’s okay, I no longer fear death. So in the meantime, I will pray each person I meet comes to this saving knowledge of who God is too. And how a relationship with Him will change your life and lead you to His eternal salvation!
Peace be with you, you are loved!
