LAR – SHAFTER MCCF – R. J. Adriano – May 20, 2018
Testimony
By R.J. Adriano
Before I became a Christian, I was a drug user and an alcoholic that was driven by pride, anger and greed. I was a mess! I was a self-reliant person who never accepted anyone’s help for the simple fact that I didn’t trust anyone, but myself. My life was centered around fulfilling my personal interest and ambition; not remembering that I have a family that needs my love, care, affection, and attention. I never realized how evil of a person I was until I got incarcerated and came to know Christ in the most intimate way.
The Lord Jesus molded me to be the person that I am today. He restored my broken heart, made it whole, and renewed my stinking mind to be the man He created me to be so I can fulfill my divine destiny. I am so thankful that God saved me. He’s patient despite all of my worries and fears because I know and believe that He loves me no matter what.
