My Story

If you're reading this, I'm praying for you. As Christians we are called to share the gospel. And our Testimony is the most amazing story we have to share. Also as Christians we should be sharing out testimony, once you share it, go share it again and again, and again.

I posted this on here, because my purpose here is to do things like this, by sharing my testimony. I want you to think about the way God changed a condemned sinner like me, and turn me into something. That is my prayer if you're reading this that no matter where you are in your walk with Christ, that your faith would be strengthened. -Landon

I've been in church all of my life, so you think my life would be good right? Wrong. My whole life I've always heard that I'm not good enough, that I'd never amount to anything. I've been made fun of and picked on every day I've been at school. I fell into a deep depression in the fourth grade. I felt like no one cared about me and that I was just in everyone's way. I quickly became suicidal. I felt so lonely like everyone on the planet was against me. It hurt having to go to church and hear about how God loved us. Where was my share of the love? Why didn't God love me? I asked God into my heart when I was eight, so where was he?

In 2008 my cousin invited me to go to church camp with him. I got in a fight with my uncle the night before leaving and he said God would change my life. Well at camp I "got saved" because my friend did. I thought it would help, but it only made things worse.

I've gotten into a lot of junk in my life. I've battled lust, cut, and attempted suicide.

In 2009 I was accepted to a Christian leadership camp for students at OBU called Super Summer. (I'm still amazed I made it!) I wasn't sure what to expect and was upset that I couldn't be home getting into stuff. That first night, I felt God's love for the first time. My heart was broken, all the walls, bitterness, everything was torn down. I was feeling something unexplainable. I was feeling love. Everything finally clicked and I knew if I don't make a change, I'm going to be gone soon. That night I truly took up my cross and started following God.

Since that day, my life has changed 180 degrees. It took so much time to get over all of the struggles and problems I had. At times I wanted to give up but I had great friends to point me in the right direction, and encourage me. Still today I'm tempted to go back to those addictions and problems, but I won't.

"Let love explode and bring the dead to life
A love so bold
To see a revolution somehow.
Let love explode and bring the dead to life
A love so bold
To bring a revolution somehow"

"Oh the Glory of it all is:
He came here
For the rescue of us all
that we may live
for the glory of it all
for the glory of it all"

It's my prayer that God reveals to you His love. That you would feel An explosion of His love, and be changed like I was.

God Bless!
