My Story Part 6 - The mistake

My Story - Part 6 

As I was drinking, my girlfriend was told by her mother that I was not well, she decided to come and check on me but still I was very unhappy.

My mother come to visit us and she found my diary, she said to me: I didn't know that you were going through this and invited me to come to a meeting in her church.

I remember that I went together with my brother and my friend Adriano as well, they were so shocked and surprised as they manifested a negative spirit that was working in their life’s, I was crying and felt like the emptiness  and sadness left me on that very first day.

After the meeting Adriano and my brother decided to get baptised, so they asked me to do the same but I said:  I don’t know if I should, this is very serious, but in the end I decided to do it.

After the baptism they began to say let us see who will do something wrong first, who will flirt with girls or use a swearing word, I said why did you baptise if you are not serious.

I continued attending the UCKG meetings and was introduced to the Youth Group I was doing so well and getting better, I was no longer sad, going to party’s but I was still with my girlfriend and she used to blackmail me saying if I would not go clubbing with her she would find someone else to take her.

Attending the meetings were really helping me, I understood that God was not the one punishing me but the devil was the one who come to destroy my life, the youth meetings were very helpful and fun as they used to sing positive songs, I could have fun without the drink and fights.

I took my girlfriend to the meeting but she did not like it and stopped coming, every night instead of going to date her I was going to church and she was not liking it, Adriano began to spend a lot of time with her as I was not there.

The Mistake:

One day as I was coming back from the meeting feeling so strong, instead of going home I decided to hang around in the neighbourhood with the guys so they would not think that now I was a church boy, my brother was flirting with a girl but she said she would not date him if I would not date her friend, I said no, I am not going to do it, but the girl was the kind of girl I used to like before and my brother was insisting so much I decided to do it, as soon as I said yes, the girl had to leave and nothing happened but I realised what I was about to do.

I went home and prayed so hard for God's forgiveness and felt like something happened on that day.

Back in the church we were warned about the Carnival as it was fast approaching, I thought I will not fall I am strong.

Then the same situation happened again, Adriano asked me to take some bikes to the club with him, I was reluctant at first but then I decided to help him.

When I arrived in the club instead of leaving the bike there and come back I stayed, big mistake, I was dressed up for church so I felt so awkward there, so I put back the earring I used to wear, I went back to use Loló (Illegal substance) and as my girlfriend had gone on holiday to the capital for the Carnival I found myself another girl, and another one the next day.

I did things I had never done before, I use to say to the guys that I would never do drugs because I was too smart for that and if ever I did it I would be the one selling to them but I was so upset for leaving the church that I thought there was no way back and I began to smoke cannabis.

To be concluded in the next post don't miss the final part.
