Hey Mike,
Your a wrestling coach? I loved wrestling in high school which led me to judo in college. I still have my wrestling shoes from highschool.
Have a Great Day!

This is my life..... As a young kid I was always unsure of who or what God was even though i grew up in Catholic Schools. My mom was an amazing person who worked hard for everything God had given her. My dad on the other hand was a pot head who only cared about us when it was a sporting season cause my brother and i could make him look good. I believe this is how my depression began. When I was 12 i started to drink and lost my virginity at a party when I was drunk. I tried to fill the hole inside me with beer and sex. I continued on this path till my freshmen year in high school. Freshmen year i start to smoke a little bit of Weed here and there. I figure what could it hurt my Dad does it. It cant be that bad. At this time I was going to a Catholic High School were i didnt really fit in. You had to be rich or grow up with the rich kids. So once again i was stuck feeling alone and being made fun of. I was kind of short and chuby as a freshmen. So there was alot to make fun of besides my not being rich. By first term of 10th grade year the only friends i had were at public schools. I was getting in fights with the Private school kids everyday cause i had hit the wieght room and learned to defend myself. So I went to my mom and told her i need a transfer or i was going to drop out of school. She agreed to the transfer and I started at the public school the next day. One of the first days at the new school i caught some kids breaking into my car and was jumped. Someone came running across the street to stop them and he took all 4 of them down! He helped me get up and took me into a near by house to get better. The next thing i knew i was in a white supremacy gang. All we did was fight, sell drugs, drink and have sex. I felt like I finally had friends. This is when my life went into a downward spiral. The drugs quickly west from Pot to Cocain to meth and even trying haroine. We started to sell drugs when i was a Junior. Mainly just weed and meth. We started to have people doing drive bys on us and invested in guns to have "protection." I was sitting in study hall one day when a girl asked me to go to youth group. I wanted to laugh but she was to pretty to be mean to. So i just asked if she knew who i was and she said yes. I decided I would check it out but I was freaked out so I "Had to get high first." So i did. I continued to go each week but never getting anything out of it cause i always had drugs in my system. One night I decided I was sick of being depressed and I was really high on meth. I decided to borrow a gun from one of my friends and i was going to end it all. I was sitting on my bed with my gun in my mouth when all of the sudden my cell phone went off. It was the girl from study hall. She said she had a feeling something was wrong and that she felt led to call me. Right the I dropped the gun and started to cry. I had to let her go so she wouldnt know. At that moment i decided i would go to a church camp that everyone at the youth group was trying to get me to go to. I was saved that night at an alter call. Everyone was standing and going to the front and i just closed my eyes and prayed my first real prayer. I asked God to help me feel what they felt and see what they see. At that moment I saw everythign that i had done wrong in my life. I felt myself stand and walk to the front and was crying the whole time as I excepted Jesus as my personal Lord and Savior. Since that day i have been clean. I have had struggles but never stopped loving God.
