hey david, i have my share of struggles. 90% of which is listening to the subtle lies of the enemy. most of my life i have let myself beleive that those were thruths. not until i started getting plugged into things about 3 months ago did i begin to see the lies for what they are. i have to fight everyday but now have the courage to fight. the freedom that has been given me through a couple of different ministries have been answer to prayer.
