Peer pressure.<\/p>\n<p>You get the idea, it\u2019s crazy! Soon there was a little group of friends. I have always felt left out from that group. It you hadn\u2019t helped send God into my life, I can\u2019t even picture\u2026..it\u2019s impossible for me to imagine\u2026..where I would be right now, what I\u2019d be doing, if I\u2019d even be writing this!<\/p>\n<p>I have never read a book that is so full of love, emotion, caring, and most important, the Lord. My life was so affected by your books, I know that if I am ever in a time of need, I can look to them. Now, I know that I can also look to God, so I am very thankful for your words and your books that lift me up and take me away into the clouds.<\/p>\n<p>I used to just sing the words to songs because I had to. Now, I sing them with meaning, and truth. As the old saying goes: Together we stand, divided we fall! Together we stand with the lord, divided we fall without him. I was amazed that as soon as I committed my life to God I could see changes, little tiny differences. I could feel them too. The flashes of hope, love, kindness<\/p>\n<p>As I continue down the path of Christ, I experience more of his love. So, thank you for bringing Christ, the Lord almighty, into my life forever.
