My first encounter with God, I was 15 at a youth event.
My brother was in Borstal and he got released age 18 and I was 15.
And we went to this conference where my mom invited us on an island.
We sat in the back row and I'm rolling up bits of paper and throwing them at people's heads, right?
Me and my brother were like the naughty kids, you know?
And this preacher, there's about 100 kids in the room, this preacher said, God wants you.
And he pointed at me and I felt something inside and I literally fell to the floor and began weeping.
And he came up to me about 30 minutes later, just weeping on the floor, turned around, everybody's gone.
He said, that's God showing himself to you.
It was crazy because the night before I said to my mom and her friend, if God's so real, why doesn't he show himself to me?
24 hours later, I'm on my knees weeping, right?
Which wasn't in my how to get the girls playbook.
You know, me and my brother trying to pull the girls, right?
And I'm weeping on the floor.
And I feel for the first time in my life, I feel real love.
I feel this pure love.
And that was the beginning of my journey.
That was age 15.
I didn't follow the Lord.
because I wanted music and I wanted stardom and all that, so I ignored it.
