And there is salvation through no one else:
for there is no other name under heaven
given among men by which we must be saved.
Acts 4:12
There is nothing special about me...

I am an ordinary Christian who desires to represent the Lord Jesus by telling others about His wonderful salvation. I want to be faithful to Christ and dedicated to my calling.
Mostly, however, the Lord uses my life to give hope to those who are spiritually needy - the hurting, lonely, depressed, addicted, and those who incorrectly think they've done too many bad things to be forgiven. I'm to tell them that Christ can and will forgive all who come to Him with an attitude of genuine repentance and in honest faith. After all, Jesus loves humanity. He will never turn anyone away.
And as for my own relationship with Him, I know I fall short. I have a long way to go to become the person I should be. And while this may sound self-effacing, it's not. Rather, it is an honest assessment of my own life. I need to mature in the "fruits of the Spirit," and in other areas as well. This is how I see myself - a man who's in need of improvement.
