I spent years in quiet study and prayer before posting, teaching and evangelizing.

I first called on God in 2019 but it wasn't until early '21 that I surrendered to Him. I began to pray daily. I started reading the Bible (again, I had Bible class in every grade) when I met my bio family in August of that year.

I made this account in Feb of '22 solely for crypto but God had other plans. I started sharing some thoughts related to faith in Sept of '22 but barely. In January of '23 I joined a Bible study and in April I was baptized (I was also baptized as an infant). I began posting and doing things in my community after that.

Despite calling on God in '19 I can really say only say that I was born again in April '23. That's when I received the Holy Spirit. Theres was nothing special about the water, it was just my intention that mattered. I was baptized in the ocean. I'm not implying you need to be water baptized to be born again or saved(thief on the cross) just sharing my experience.

Water baptism is an outward sign of an inward change but in this case it coincided with the beginning of my ministry (and Jesus's) so take it for what you will.
