I grew up living with my my mom because my parents
had separated.
I was like the poster child homeschooled [A] Christian kid.
My
experience [G] growing up was just very sheltered that way.
In sixth grade
[Cm] actually was the first time I stepped into a public [G] school.
You know you start
getting [A] different influences, different lifestyles.
For me one of those things I
remember kind of being introduced [Bb] to pornography.
From [Gm] that stage on it was
like something that I that just had me that hooked [Cm] me that I just kept going
deeper [G] and deeper into.
It became this addiction, [Bb] my addiction.
So fast forward a
little bit I graduated high school.
I was still leading worship in my church.
I was
leading worship in multiple churches [Gm] around the community.
One of my friends
he actually was the best man of my wedding.
[Bb] I like had this breakdown moment
and this exposure moment of kind of confessing to him what had been going on
the things that I was struggling with.
And I remember actually [Cm] the shame being
so [Eb] heavy that I just stopped, stopped communicating with [Cm] Tori as a [A] whole.
I
didn't I didn't call her for like a week.
[Bb] Adam ended up telling her that kind of
what was going on.
All I wanted to do was hide.
I was pushing everybody away.
All my friends, my family, and obviously the person that meant the most to me.
And
that's when I knew I had a choice to make.
So I made a choice to just be
honest and to cling to grace.
I [Gm] was on my knees literally [G] in front of the one that
I [Gm] loved the most sharing the thing that was [Eb] the hardest to [Gm] share out of that
[F] brokenness and surrender just that one moment of surrender.
The Lord completely
[Gm]
just met [F] me with grace and with hope and with healing [Bb] and with help.
I [F] was able to
choose to stop [Gm] running and hiding.
The thing that [Bb] I learned in the process was
the truth will set you free.
There's this [Bb] element this lie of shame that doesn't
exist with God.
But when [F] we're honest with him and [Gm] we just bring it out [Eb] like
grace is [Bb] greater than our sin.
His [F] grace is greater than our sin.
