IAMFORGIVEN – What does it mean?

IAMFORGIVEN – What does it mean? What does that even mean? What am I forgiven of… and who forgave me? I was hoping you would ask. In 2009, I started IAMFORGIVEN because the fact that I am forgiven has been a complete game-changer for me. Forgiveness has literally saved and changed my life. And if…

My Life

As I sit here and go through old pictures of me as a child up until today, I look back at my life and see all the amazing times that I had. All the blessings and the experiences that God has allowed me to be involved in has brought great awe to me through it…

Loving Jesus VS Being a Christian

I woke up with this on my mind and it really was a message to me. But I decided to write it because I know it will impact many others that call themselves Christians. When I was 13 I gave my life to Jesus and started to call myself a Christian. I would pick up…

I AM FORGIVEN

CAN YOU UNDERSTAND? IS IT POSSIBLE?

My entire life I was raised in this bubble called America, where my world view was shaped by the music I listened to, the TV and movies I watched, and the people I was around. My goals and visions were based on how I can impress people with all that I have accomplished and material…

For the love of Money

Growing up I was really into this group called Bone Thugs N Harmony. They were the pioneers of tongue twisting rap, where they would flow out super quick rhymes and make it sound really easy and smooth. It was actually pretty impressive! One year they came out with a song called “For the Love of…

He was lonely!

His head was down texting away with not having a clue what was going on around him. When he was done with that text he would immediately check his Facebook to see if anybody had sent him a message. Nothing! So he looked up for a little bit and then immediately started to look at…
