My name is Paul, a born again Christian since the day I first believed, 3rd August 2008, after I had a revelation that JESUS CHRIST Is The Truth.
Formerly a drug taking, binge drinking, thieving, adulterous, fornicating, often short tempered sinner Saved by Grace through faith in The LORD JESUS CHRIST; my inner man being Renewed day by day. Dying to the flesh and by The Grace Of GOD to bring forth fruit in keeping with repentance.
A man who enjoyed following Millwall FC (🎵It's best team in London, no, the best team of all🎶 - as the song goes) home and away since October 1982, but shortly after the day I first believed felt that it was not for me to go any longer.
The first time I played chess was after watching Garry Kasparov v Nigel Short and was hooked.
I went to the local library and got a book on chess for beginners. I had a couple of friends who played chess and through playing against them learned a bit.
I hadn't played for years and then stumbled across chess.com, joined and have been enjoying it ever since.
Since the day I first believed a lot of what interested me has fallen away, but chess is something I still enjoy playing even though I'm not so good and will often make mistakes in games.
But it's the enjoyment I find in playing the game.
GOD Bless you 🙂
Brethren, pray for us also.
