I acepted Jesus as my Saviour 10 years ago. As soon as I did, I started to serve the Lord the best I could.
I worked in diferents ministries; youth, evangelism, missions, etc. Every body in the Church considered me
a good leader and my preachings always ended up with two or five people acepting Jesus. I also went to
the theological Seminary to study theology. I felt the Lord so close to me, and I did care about my testimony.
I was living with prayer, reading of the Bible and fasting.
Until one day ...
I can not tell exactly how it all began, but gradually I started to sin in small things.
I had had some failures in family issues and I felt sad and alone. So it resulted in
a spiritual breaktrhough. At the begining I did not pay too much atention to it and never
thought this was the begining of a downfall. Then I was there trapt for about two years doing things
forbiding for the Bible.
You may be wondering about the charges I had at Church, well, I kept working on them, I preached,
teached and always acepted ministries at Church... and always commiting sins. There was a moment
when I did not experience any feelings when commiting sins. It was like I was slept or dead. I was not
aware of my dangerous situation and finally, christian life did not call my atention at all.
The awakening...
I remember I had to participate in a conference which required me to be out of home for a week.
So I took a book with me to read it in my free time. This book was about the revival icons of Church
History. As I started to read the lives of those great preacher who devoted their life to revival, I
felt so sad about my spiritual situation. I read this book every nights and I made up my mind to
become again the diligent christian I was at the beginning. I left this conference with a determination
to stop sin and get into a revival. But this was not achieved so easy as I expected..
