TreeStandBowHunter Posted February 21, 2010 Report Share Posted February 21, 2010 (edited) I am just realizing that I am second. I'll tell you, my life is changing before my eyes. I have really turned my life around in the last year. I gave myself to Christ about a year ago and obviously I had some troubles with keeping the faith since then but I never gave up and I continue to fight the evil temptations but I never give up and I continue to strive to live by Gods will. But lately, I am just in awe how God is working in me. I got to go to a Mens Conference here in Japan to see Mark Cahill speak the other week (Author of One Heartbeat Away & One Thing You Can't Do In Heaven) and my life is now changing even more. I used to be afraid to share my faith and what all the Lord has done for me in the past year but now I am not anymore. The lord took my dirty mouth away, the way I think, and certainly the way I act. So many things are changing in my life and I love it. It has made me a better husband, a better father, and a better follower of Christ. Just thought I would share...but one thing is for sure, I am IN DEED second! Steve (Buckee), if your reading, I would love to talk to you. Your one of the many influences I have had over the last year. Edited February 21, 2010 by TreeStandBowHunter Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When your eyes get opened you knida wonder why it took so long to see the light. The older you get the tougher it is to let go and let God live in you. Satin has ways to harden ones heart.

buckee Posted February 26, 2010 Report Share Posted February 26, 2010 OH WOW ..Mike, you just made my day...no..my week...no my year. :D All I can say Mike, is I love you man, and Praise the Lord. I remember when I finally, actually, seriously asked Jesus to come into my heart. I felt like I was walking 2 feet off the ground for a couple of weeks, like a big heavy backpack had been lifted off my shoulders, and a dark vale taken off my eyes. My friend and my new brother, May the Lord bless you and keep you until that day. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TreeStandBowHunter Posted February 27, 2010 Author Report Share Posted February 27, 2010 The Lord blesses me everyday Steve. I slip up every now and then but I get right back on track. I actually feel like going out an witnessing to others just like I was witnessed too. It is a good feeling and like you, I feel like 100 pounds have been lifted off of my shoulders. It feels great.

TxBowHunter Posted March 16, 2010 Report Share Posted March 16, 2010 I am really glad you accepted our father and lord Jesus Christ into your life. It's amazing what he can do for you when you are putting him #1 in your life. He is the god of all gods and the ruler of this great nation. I have got a new vision of this place, I know all of you guys are great and have good heads on your shoulders but I didn't know we had a big group of hunters who loved the lord and savior Jesus Christ as much as I did. This is awesome! Thanks for sharing your story! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
