AGAPE

My Past

• Suicide attempt• Depression• Addictions• Promiscuity• Tantrums

• S.T.D scares• Risky behavior• Paranoid episodes• Criminal activities• Abusive relationships

I was slowly starting to crack…

I had too much pride to ask for help…and no

one ever offered.

Belief in Someone Greater than Myself

One day I just fell to my knees and said “God, I can’t do this alone anymore…my way isn’t working. I

need You.”

God’s LoveAnd so we know and rely on the love God has for

us. God is love. Whoever lives in love lives in God, and God in him. - 1 John 4:16

My command is this: Love each other as I have loved you. Greater love has no one than this, that he lay down his life for his friends. - John

15:12-13 Jesus replied: " 'Love the Lord your God with all

your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind.' This is the first and greatest

commandment. And the second is like it: 'Love your neighbor as yourself.' – Matthew 22:37-39

New way of thinking…

I used to think it wasn’t practical to follow Christ’s teachings. It seemed rigid, impossible, and no fun. Then I tried it….

Positive Effects

My Present

“May you be able to feel and understand how long, wide, how deep and how high God’s love really is and

experience this love for yourself.”

--The Bible (Ephesians 3:18-19)
