My life is exciting, busy, and full of joy because of my faith in God. Creating this story about my faith made everything so much more precious and real to me. However, I have to tell you, it was hard to be this completely open about myself. It is not every day that I get to do a testimonial about Christianity and what it has done for me. It is a little scary putting all of my thoughts and beliefs out where anyone could hear them. Hopefully, I can inspire others. That is my goal.
My inspiration came foremost from God and a quote from a song. The Christian band, DC Talk, sings a song called "Jesus Freak." The chorus is what really inspired my story and my train of thought, and it is also the opening words to my piece. It explains the stereotypes that very religious people can have, and how to overcome them. This song sums up my life very well, and I would like to thank God and DC Talk for helping me create a piece that is hopefully as inspiring as they have been to me.
