Testimony... a ragged road to HIM
I am 60 yrs. old, and only acknowledged Gods existance 5 yrs. ago.You see, I was an agnostic drug addict, life long. I was what they call a functioning addict, right up to the point where I wasn't (functioning, that is).It wasn't 'til I crashed and burned that I came to realize that someone was doing for me when I couldn't do for myself. Someone kept me alive, when by rights, I should have been dead (Lord knows I tried hard enough). I lived a reckless, dangerous life, and GOD let me have my own will, until I was busted and broke down and near dead at 55. When I cried out to HIM, HE knew I was ready and opened HIS arms to me. On this day, there was a rainbow in the sky (literally, a rainbow... I hadn't even read of Noah's rainbow yet, but still, it touched me deeply). This was also the same day I realized I was in love with the woman who would become my wife, Kim. She had also been an addict, and brothers and sisters, it is much harder for a woman. She was used and abused but had been raised as a Christian , so she knew HIM and was able to call on HIM. And HE saved her life more times than I can say.
Shortly after we met, I began to think about the Bible and the Son mentioned there. In a little country church, I picked up a pamplet (John) and read about John the Baptist, and the more I read, the more it struck me...TRUTH!!!! It wasn't just some story. It was the truth. I knew it. I could feel it in my heart...( John 3:16).... Then came Jesus, Then came the music...Christmas 2003, I stood up in church with my wife Kim, to sing a lovelly little Christmas song her mom had written. Well, Kim was going to sing, I was just sort of there........., it went well, and I decided to pick up the guitar again ( I hadn't played in nearly 40 yrs )...6 months later, GOD gave us our first song...and then another.... Praise God
Lord, Let us lift up our voices in praise to YOU Jesus is the light of this world. Hold HIM to your heart. And let your light shine for all to see.

Humblebeginnings (Lee and Kim Karsan)
We are singer/songwriters. Self produced and self recorded. We consider our songs gifts from GOD. 3 1/2 years ago, we sung in church for the first time.
I hadn't touched a guitar in 40 years, and had never written a song. Then, the LORD started to bless us with these songs. "Where are we going from here?",
I haven't a clue. We will continue to write and sing and try to keep our hearts open to HIS promptings. I would like to think that if just one person hears
one of our songs and is comforted or moved, then all the effort will be worth it. We sing for HIM, we sing for you. Most of our songs are about our journey
Out of the darkness and into the light of our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ. Our GOD is an awsome GOD. Go with GOD brothers and sisters. Lee n Kim
