Eman_sv7

This is Eman_sv24 aka Super_Eman, but my real name is Joel. Where do I start, oh wait, let’s start with the beginning of my birth. Oh yes, such a lovely event, and such an experience. It was dark, gloomy, thundering, and it was raining so hard. Ok, to be honest, I don’t know what happened the day I entered this world. All I do know is that God blessed these feet to touch the earth that he made with His hand. Yes, I still fight to believe why I am here, but I am so grateful for the things that He has brought to my heart. I was born in Brazil, Soa Paulo. I was born in an orphanage. I was left there all alone with no mother and father. I heard I had a brother there also, but my eyes never laid it upon him. I was 6 years old. Orphanages in Brazil, if you don’t get adopted, at the age of 13 or up, you have to leave the premises. I had about 7

years to go before I could get adopted. The statistics says, “Most don’t survive.” How could you? But do you know how God blessed me? About 8 years old, a family in Maryland was looking to adopt a child. The Lord guided them to see a picture of me in the adoption papers. How? Why? What caused them to say, “This is the one, grab ‘em!” From that day forth, my life changed. I accepted Jesus at an early age, and I was baptized afterwards. I have experienced so many wonderful things in my life that I wouldn’t have if I was still in Brazil. My Christian family with the Hand of God brought me to a wonderful country. Could have been lost, but now I was found! About Faith: People that ask, “How can you believe in a God?” My answer is, if there’s no God, then you have no explanation to why things exist. In my heart, it takes more faith to believe there was a BIG BANG than to say a God created us. As for me, I’m going to look upon the Lord as it states in Isaiah 40:26 “Lift up your eyes on high, and behold who hath created these things……” Yes! Who *has* created the stars, the planets, and the sun? You don’t drop pieces of a puzzle to the floor and all of sudden, the pieces fit together perfectly. Someone *has to* put the puzzle together. Otherwise, its just pieces scattered. Think about this, everything in this world that man has created has to be put together. That goes for technologies, (cars, tv, factories, etc.) Who put the earth together with, air, oxygen, clouds, sky, and all other qualities of the earth that without it, we can’t be here!!! It doesn’t happen because some bang happened, or some cell was formed that evolved from a fish to a man. The Bible states, “…… for he maketh his sun to rise on the evil and on the good, and sendeth rain on the just and on the unjust" Matthew 5:45. Trust me, I have my share of rain. I had my share of the sun. I don’t have all the answers to why the world seems so bleak and filled with tragedies. Evidence of the Fall of Mankind. I’m not a perfect human being, I have huge flaws, but I remember that Jesus was perfect for me, because I knew I couldn’t be. Jesus died for everyone, not just me. God so loved this world. Jesus said, “No one is good, but God.” That is a huge statement because we think that we’re all decent people, but yet we still aren’t good. Some love more than others, but we have people that hate more than others. That is why it is important to look for our Lord to come back. Thank God for His Grace, and I truly believe that without Jesus, I can’t do anything. Well, I could go on off the top of my head with the precious red words on that amazing book called Word of God. I’m outgoing, and am willing to help, talk, and be there for friends. So when you see me, Holla At Me! :)
