My life used to be without direction or hope.  I always wanted to live in happiness, but I couldn't be happy.  I didn't have faith in anything, just living for myself.  I was working, but I was an alcoholic and wasted my money.  I didn't do anything good.  I just traveled around to different places and worked in mines.  I also had bad health.  After all this, I wanted to know if there was a God.  I asked, "Where is God the Lord?"  But nobody told me the truth, or about salvation. 

One day, the Christian brothers Alberto, Faustino and Robert Rich shared with me during a seminar.  They told me about how to become a Christian.  I was 28 years old, and I received Christ and gave my life over to Him.  I got baptized the next day, July 10, 2004, and began my Christian walk.  The Lord showed me that

I was a sinner, but by His mercy and grace, cleansed me through His Son Jesus Christ.  Now I have peace and joy in my life.  I still need patience and more humility.  Only the word of God can change us.
