I don’t know how long I’ll keep this video up. But I wanted to check in at least once online so those who care about me have closure as to generally why I’ve stepped down from ministry.
Unfortunately, my “wake up call” had to come from the realization that I hurt the ones close to me and love the most. I blamed other people for my issues for so long, and sat in self deception for many years. I was so scared all of the time to admit I needed help. I’m no longer running from my issues, though it doesn’t and can’t change the devastation I’ve caused to others. Full transparency is needed for me to make sure I never make these mistakes again. This video, and other things that I have set in place are reminders to never forget or be complacent about my struggles. So I have stepped down from any online ministry and real life ministry that puts the focus on me in anyway. For that I’ve also decided to not cover song at the end of the video but the song that I was referring to was “Blessed Be Your Name” my favorite version is by The Clark Family. I have already learned a lot about myself and this issue I struggle with, and I can confidently say I am making progress to be the safe loving person I know God wants me to be. Please pray for this journey of change, and for healing of those that were affected by my poor choices and actions. God knows who they all are.

Here are some resources that I find comfort in that has really helped me, and if you struggle with something similar I hope it can help you:

I know I stated I had taken down all of my YouTube videos, but praying on it I might publicize some musics projects I’ve done with others. God has used it to help people and though I have stepped down from that ministry, I hope it still helps people.
