18 Days Awake…

The Edge…

If you didn’t need sleep, what would you do with all the extra time?

When I saw this prompt question…
it brought back many memories of my past…
my drug days…

I went without much in those years…
including sleep…

I was reminded of the time I stayed awake for 18 days…
so I started thinking on it…
and googling…
and reading…

Apparently.. the Guinness World Record for staying awake is 11 days and 25 minutes…
so yeah…
I shattered that record…
but I’m guessing that guy didn’t have any help from stimulants lol…

Through more reading…
I learned that being awake 18 days is hanging right on the edge of death…

Guess I’m really blessed and fortunate…
because there were numerous times I would be awake around 10 days or more even.. I actually beat the world record many times… nothing to be proud of…

I am so grateful and thankful to God…
that I made it through those times…
and I am not the same today…

Death waited at the door…
but it did not win…
I walked back out of those days…
changed…
and still breathing…

I walked the line many times.. the edge…

A Hidden Track Of Me…

My first impression

I want my first impression to feel like a hidden track —
a quiet glow in a deep place.. carrying a melody of grace beneath the scars…

I don’t have all the answers… but I know Who does…..`-¡-`°<³
I don’t know what the future holds… but I know Who holds the future…..
I’m nothing special… but I’m special to Him…..

I used to live for myself..
Now I try to put others first — it’s my deep place… the place I like to dwell..
Today.. I carry a love for people I never dreamed possible…..`~  ¡- `<³°
To me.. there’s no such thing as a stranger……

What book am I reading right now? Well… this one found me more than I found it…

What book are you reading right now?

“The Devils Mistake” by Eira Wulfnothsson and “Celebrate Every Life… Even Mine” by Nan Panman

Not long ago.. I was watching a documentary.. and there was a woman on there who said some things that hit me deep.. I don’t know why.. but her words stuck in my mind.. So I googled her.. Ended up on her website.. Read about her life.. And then I realized why she stood out to me..

She’s an ex-Luciferian occultist who became a Christian…..

That alone fascinated me — but when I found her testimony on YouTube… man.. The depth she was in.. the darkness she lived in.. the way God rescued her… it shook me.. Because I could relate more than I wish I could.. I’ve had my own brushes with that same evil.. I once tried to sell my soul.. I know the pull of that darkness.. I know the cost..

So I reached out…
We ended up emailing..
One thing led to another.. and she invited me into her YouTube community and her podcast.. Pitbulls of the Lord…

She’s smart.. sharp.. grounded.. And because of her past.. she understands the kind of spiritual warfare I’ve been dealing with in a way most people can’t.. She’s been there.. She survived what I almost didn’t…

She’s Roman Catholic, and I’m not — but honestly? I don’t care.. Truth is truth….

Her book is called “The Devil’s Mistake…”
And let me tell you… I couldn’t put it down.. I read the whole thing in a day and a half.. It was powerful.. profound.. it’s on my list of best reads…

Her name is Eira Wulfnothsson..
If any of this sparks something in you — look her up.. You might be surprised by what you find…

Also.. I recently read a friend’s book.. it’s also a Christian testimony story of God’s power and love throughout the life of this woman.. her story is similar to mine and Eira’s…. it’s also tremendously powerful… so check her book out… her name is Nan Panman.. and the book is called “Celebrate Every Life… Even Mine”

I recommend them both…

Both of these books are available on Amazon.. and maybe other places also.. I downloaded both from Kindle…

Below are links for both books…

Yall l have a great day…

I love yall…

Who I Am — And What This Blog Is About

I want to take a moment to explain what I’m doing here on this blog…

First and above all… I love Jesus — 110%…
But I also used to be lost.. and I never want to forget that.. My past lets me relate to anyone who shows up here.. Everything I’ve walked through — the struggles.. the mistakes.. the victories.. the faith — it all shaped who I am today…

And I’ve decided I’m not hiding any of it..

This blog is going to show all of me..

who I was…

who I am now…

and who I’m becoming…

I’m going to pour it out and not hold back..

My ministry is BryanForChrist.. and it reaches far beyond one place.. It includes..

my YouTube channel…

my Grow account…

my WhatsApp ministry…

my mission work in the Philippines..  Singapore.. Argentina.. and now Uganda..

and my ongoing connections with churches and ministries across Florida..

And now here also…

There’s a lot happening — but it all comes down to one mission…
reaching people who need hope… listening to them… talking to them… loving them… all of them…

I’m going to do that by being myself…
My secular side.. my life side.. my faith side.. my Christian heart — it all lives here together…..

So this blog is different.. than my other things going on.. I feel this is my angle of approach.. unique to here…

And trust me…

it’s going to work… I hope 😄… nah just kidding… it will be fine… 😁… regardless though… It will be me… 😎…..,t`¡-<³… ☝️

So pull up a chair…

If I Could Live Anywhere… 🇵🇭

If you could live anywhere in the world, where would it be?

…….<3~↗🌴↗~’

If I could live anywhere in the world.. I believe I would choose the Philippines…

I’ve been blessed to travel a bit — Singapore.. Argentina.. the Philippines — mostly through missionary work.. But something about the Philippines💥just stayed with me… The people there are warm.. kind.. joyful.. and welcoming in a way that’s hard to explain but impossible to forget …..🇵🇭

It’s a place that felt like home the moment I arrived… and if I could live anywhere… that’s where I’d go ….💥

I’m still strongly connected to the people there today… and will always be… I message on whatsapp often with my friends there… also.. my ex-girlfriend is Filipino… she and I were together for like five or so years… she taught me much💥about life.. culture.. and the language.. today we are just good friends …💥

I almost forgot to mention how stunningly beautiful it is there… the mountains… the beaches… unlike any other…

Thinking of Layne Staley today… such a sad story…

…….†=>O*’

Years ago… a Christian friend of mine.. shared his thoughts with me.. regarding the song “Man In The Box” by Alice in Chains..💥he explained to me how the song was demonic and evil.. because of the line.. “Jesus Christ..deny your maker”… and I’ve had others in my life try and say the same thing… but the song is not that at all… it’s the deep cry and lament of a man… lost in life… lost in addiction.. a man who feels hopeless… a man that knows he’s in💥trouble and dying… a man fighting the demons… a man crying out…… for Jesus…. ((is the song influenced by evil? For sure.. but there’s a lot of good happening here also.. God is trying to reach Layne..  I’m focused on the man crying… I care about him… not the demons))…..💥

…….?=/~><`

Layne believed… he knew God was real.. he knew God was his only hope… he was💥longing for HIM… he just felt so far away… he didn’t know how to get there… he was blinded by his life… this is what drug💥addiction does… I know… I’ve been there…

…….,’⇘†⇗`

Layne’s story is so sad to me… because I was just like him… but there’s hope for us all💥today…. you dont have to feel like Layne and me….☝️….. there is one💥standing at the door of your heart… knocking…💥

…….†→’ …….↑†’…….~↷~’`°-\|~`¡’->*

People are more important… than anything else… even the ones you don’t know… even the ones you don’t like…☝️💯

Layne was beautiful… I pulled for him… I prayed for him… makes me sad… that he ended like he did… he died alone… in his apartment… of an overdose… don’t you end like this… get up stand up… wake up… answer the door… ☝️💥💯🏳🪜✝️
