| Cera's Testimony |

I came to know Christ when I was 13 in the midst of my parents divorce. It was a pretty horrific time in my life and i was ready to throw in the towel and end it all. Thankfully, God revealed Himself to me and I decided to give Him a try before ending it all. It was during this time that I got caught up in the addiction of self-injury as a way of coping with my past and present situations. I chose to carry the baggage of my parent's divorce, some past abuse issues and the weight of te world.... along with my new walk with Jesus. Sooo, the SI got worse, I learned how to hide it better. I don't think that anybody ever suspected what I was carrying. To the world, I was your model Christian teenager.
I founded a Christian music festival at 15, became a leader in my growing youth group, started travelling with some local Christian bands and ran into someone I knew everywhere I went. Deep inside I knew I had issues that needed dealt with but I was terrified to let everyone down. I didn't want them to see that the perfect Christian Cera was in fact deeply flawed. I wore my mask of perfection for years. Finally it cracked. I broke and it seemed like my world was crashing around me. It was right then that I had to decide whether or not what I had been telling other people I believed was good enough to carry me through my own storms. I chose to follow Him. It wasn't easy. It's still hard some days.
I've been working through my issues the best I can over the past three years. I'm a singer/songwriter and have written about my struggles and how my God has intervened in huge ways. My goal is to be real. I don't want the weight of my mask any longer. I'm human. I love Jesus. I struggle. I sin. I get back up. Hiding my sin and weakness only gives it fuel to grow...
I choose to live my life a little differently than most "Christians." Sometimes I even despise being called a christian because of the huge black eye we've given ourselves. I follow Jesus. I mess up. I love my tattoos. I wear jeans to church and before the end of the year I'll meet my goal to have a motorcycle. My testimony is always a work in progress. I'm always changing. God is always showing me something new through my mistakes. He's merciful. He's funny. He's loving. He's my Daddy.. and I couldn't be more proud to be His daughter
My favorite scripture is Zephaniah 3:17 and the first several verses in 1 Kings 19.
