Oh I totally forgot to fill you guys in last week after my baptism. The week after my baptism that was last week sunday I received the GIFT OF THE HOLY GHOST.

He said so many good things I needed in his prayer for me ......I really felt good about it and about myself that I had to thank him after church service.

I was so much happy and I felt blessed because I never thought a day like that was going to come. Change is good and it can bring so much blessings into your life. I'm Thankful

Even with that I’ll start eating healthy for a minute, hit the gym and give up on that same week. Until my course mate took a picture of me when I wasn’t looking after I had instructed him not to take any picture of me. A single picture became my motivation to the beginning of this journey. My first look at the pictur...
