I'm a 20 year old student who recently finished at Wake Tech and is going to NC State this year. I'm a political science major and have been developing quite a passion for the workings and need for a good Christian in the political world.  I should be finishing my studies in Dec. 08. I've been saved since I was five years old and grew up in church.  Even though a couple of years ago I tried to stray away from church and my family here, God showed me that I needed to be here.  Even though it was painful, I thank Him every day for putting me where I needed to be.  I recently lost my father to cancer in November of last year, but even through that I have been able to see myself mature in all aspects of life.  Life may have gotten harder at that point, but God has given me everything that I have needed.  I may not have all I want out of life, but the key is what I need.
