As I started writing this book, it was suppose to be about encouraging people that were down or had no hope. I continued to write and realized that I was telling my story of my life and my weaknesses. I started getting comfortable and said to myself. "If you are going to write books the people need to know who you are. So i continued and shared some of the deepest things that I felt people should know and the things that I have encountered. I have always had the notion that God was looking out for me even in the unwise decisions that I have made. whether I was drinking, or in an unsafe environment God knew me but, i didn't really know him. I lived a life of drugs, alcohol, prejudice and attempted suicide but when I made the decision to come to God, my life changed for the better. I want you to know no matter how your life started out, it does not have to end there. My story is a book that will identify with some of your short comings, some of your experiences, some of your downfalls but will show how the love of God rescued me and my desire to have God rescue you. I learned that God needed me so I could not kill myself, I learned that God wanted me to love the way he loves and it didn't matter what the color of your skin was, I learned losing one brother made me appreciate and love the other brother who is my friend today. I hope this book will encourage you and get you to embrace Gods love that he has for you.
