I sat there miserable knowing things were not well in my soul. The people riding with me kept singing “It Is Well With My Soul”. After the service on November 3rd, 2000 I had to ride the college bus back to campus from the church. During a revival meeting at Southwest Baptist Church in OKC, OK, God turned up the pressure on me, but I refused to walk the aisle. I knew I was lost but I didn’t want anyone else to know it. Just a couple of months into my freshmen year I was miserable. I realized I was making professions of faith to please people and not because I believed I was a sinner before a holy God. I had made professions of faith, but in doing so I was always trying to get out of trouble with my parents. While at Bible College I took a personal evangelism class that really shook me up. My Father asked me to attend one year of Bible College and I agreed to do so. After I graduated from high school I had my plans for my future but they did not include serving God. I was raised in a very strong Christian home, yet I struggled with my salvation for many years.
