Back in my twenties, like a lot of people, I was just trying to figure life out and have fun. On the outside, everything looked fine, but deep down, I was struggling. I was caught up with the wrong crowd, partying every weekend, making bad choices, and going down the wrong path.

I always believed in God, but I never really took my faith seriously—until I hit a breaking point. One day, I just said to myself, “I’m done. I’m sick of feeling like this.” I felt lost, but my best friend told me to meet a pastor in Manitoba. That one conversation changed everything. I started reading the Bible, listening to worship music, and little by little, my mindset started to shift. The people I started to hang out with changed, my perspective changed, and for the first time in a long time, I actually felt like I was on the right path.

One thing I’ve learned? No matter how tough life gets, you gotta keep faith—whether in God or whatever higher power you believe in. Even in your darkest moments, there’s always hope. Looking back, I wouldn’t change a thing because every struggle made me who I am today. God isn’t breaking you; He’s shaping you.

If you’re going through something, just know you’re not alone. I’m sharing this because I hope it encourages someone to keep pushing forward. Life isn’t easy, but every challenge, every setback—it’s all happening for a
GOOD REASON.
