This all started off with me and my brothers, the music thing. I was a secular artists. Did Alot of music, participated in a lot of bad things in my life. But as I got older I realized something, My life was not complete. I wasn't going to church. I stopped caring about my grades in school. I let a full ride scholarship pass me by. What was making me make these choices? Maybe it was evrything and evrybody around me was doing things that i wasn't doing but i wanted to do them so bad. People smoked, people drank, people sold drugs, people that were popular did all of those things. I wouldn't say i wasn't popular i mean yeah people new me but they would hang around me that much because i didn't do certain things. being that i was young and trying to get new friends, i decided to do those things so that I could fit in and be what they would say a cool person. I was working two jobs and going to school, so i had money, So i got a new car off the lot. Unresponsibly thinking I would be able to take care of the payments, I started drinkin and smokin which became a habit. Every single day I would do these things and i started noticing I would spend money on drugs before i would put gas in my car. Then I started thinking, well i can be late on my car payments, they wont mind. Then that went to, well, if i dont pay my car note they wont come take my car for a couple months so im cool. So i drank and smoked all of my money away, not thinking about my credit or anything. Just being young and dumb wanting to fit in the fast life. Going to party's, blacking out. But the whole time, I never really could say i enjoyed myself, I always was missing something. Then my grandmother passed away. She was like my mom. I stayed with her almost everyday. No matter what i would always help her out with her bills and things of that sort. Then two and a half months later her husband died. My mom got divorced from an 18 year marriage. at that time I was 18 years old so He was who i called dad my whole life because my biological wasn't never around. Another year went by of doing the same things, by then i had bought two cars of the lot which both by the way were repossesed. I had a credit card I used all up and never payed on it. I took out a payday cash advance to pay my senior dues, never payed it back. I would just switch cell phone company's without cutting them off so they reported that to my credit report. So by the time i was 19, I had nothing to show for myself but bad credit and repossessions, and I could say that i stayed high and drunk everyday last year, as if that were something to brag about. Lost both jobs and one was at a hospital that paid very well. But going to work intoxicated is not the thing to do. EVER. I finally get another job, fast food, but it's a job, I met someone there I really liked and they had asked me if i go to church and do i believe in God. I said yeah, i USED To go to church every sunday with my grandma. But I stopped going when i was about 12. Why? They said, you should start going back. So I did, and little did i know my life start coming back together. The more I was fed the word, the more I realized that God is the reason why I'm here, and that I'm blessed to be alive. I had lost all motivation in music. I was a great producer, song writer, and i always thought I could sing, but my brothers would always say shut up, you suck. So I never took it serious until, I was singing on the phone one day just playing around, and the person was like, "who is that singing?", i said me why? they said" stop lying" but I wasn't, they said you can sing. REAL GOOD. Why don't you sing? I said i can't thats what my brothers always said. So that motivated me to do music again. I wrote my first song. Nothing important but I liked it. Then I thought, well, I'm getting my life back together, I don't want to do secular music, i wanna do music for God. and the person I was talking to was in a former group called T. O. F. F. C. Teens on Fire For Christ. So I said well we're not teens anymore why dont we say youth instead. So We Started A group Y.O.F.F.C. YOuth On Fire For Christ. I would make beats and come up with song ideas and that began a whole new beginning. From music to bible studies at home every week. This was the beggining of something big. But you know, as soon as you begin to grow in God, the enemy rises up and tries to bring you down. That's exactly what happened. Things changed, everybody was moving to different areas. We thought we were fully prepared to face any attacks from the enemy but we werent just there yet. So Now we're trying to pull things back together and get back to where we were at first and grow. God started this and he didn't start it for no reason, different days, different seasons, things change but im still believing that YOFFC, IS STILL HERE. Be looking out for us soon. We will rise again. In The Almighty Name Of Jesus. We Thank You. Pray for our ministry to get back together. And Pray for me as i have made a complete change in my life but I need direction and help. Thank You And God Bless
