At the most crucial time in his childhood, where the love and influence of a father was most needed, it wasn't there. He was then forced to look for the love and guidance he was looking for out in the streets. A life full of gangs, drugs and crime which ultimately had him seen and experience things at a young age that no young teen should experience. This ultimately landed him in and out of juvenile hall most if not all his teenage years and even into his young adult life. It wasn't until he hit rock bottom when he realized that only the grace and love of God could pick him up from the pit he was in, forgive him for all his wrong doings and make him into the man God wanted him to be. I personally couldn't be more proud and astonished at what God has been able to do in his life. God has blessed him with a beautiful family of his own. God is daily forming him into the father, the husband and son he's always wanted him to be. And although things have not come easy over the years, he has stayed the course and is daily keeping his eye on the prize. Not only is he heavily involved in the ministry in his own church, but has volunteered his time to outreach in different jails, as a clergymen in the local police agencies and through a local television ministry. He has been a true inspiration to what God can do with anyone who is willing to humble themselves and trust in his every word. May God bless you and your family and continue to reach many lives in need of Him, as when you first needed Him years ago as a young man.
