My Life has been Redeemed from Destruction
My life has been REDEEMED from destruction..I didn’t know what to do. I fell on my knees and I began to pray… and GOD gave me an ELECTRONIC Gospel Experience. An Album filled with a sound that has never existed before. This is music from another PLANET…
The year was 1999, I had just moved back to the Prairies of Canada after spending five years of my LIFE on the Island of Maui. Back then, I would tell you that I had no idea what i wanted to do with my life… and this was the reason I washed up on the shores of Hawaii. But now, looking back I realize.. I knew exactly what I wanted to do..it was what I had to do. the thing that still haunts me to this very day…I had to have ADVENTURE. If life was not an adventure?…I just can’t BREATHE.
Surrounded by BEAUTY, and a large circle of friends. I was never bored. It felt good here. This was living, and surfing a wave was about the most thrilling thing i had ever done. But, without a doubt, the best part was that feeling of having no worries. All that was about to soon change…INSTANTANEOUSLY.
My best friend that i grew up with wrote me a letter. He was getting married and gave me the HONOUR to be the best man at his wedding. I put his letter down and was hit with a REVELATION. It was time to move back home.
After being away so long..I arrived back in Winnipeg and was having reverse culture shock BEING in the city where I spent the first 20 years of my life…talk about back to reality. It was a strange EXPERIENCE. I realized that life was racing forward during my absence. Life, in fact, was not on pause…people were busy.
I was HOME less than a week and there she was.. my first crush. The first girl I ever held hands with in elementary school..and you know what?..she was a knockout. We were married in less than 5 months and BOOM… life was taking off like rocket.
Things were going so well..or so I thought. But lets just say, sometimes you don’t know…what you don’t know, and then suddenly… DESTRUCTION comes knocking at your door!
oh…alright, I’m gonna tell you EXACTLY what happened.
I was a newly-wed at the time…I was on the phone with her arguing…when she said these words
I don’t LOVE you…
and I don’t want to have your children…
I don’t want to be with you!
I hung the phone…I fell to my knees.. and i cried out…. GOD!………..h e l p m e……………………………………………………………………
in that moment…in the TWINKLING of an eye, instantaneously I was CHANGED……..forever.
