Author

Pastor Louis Adams

Louis Adams is a Christian author, father and devoted husband. This former R & B artist of the late 80''s was called into the ministry in 1991. Going through various health problems as a child, Henry Adams Sr & Alma Adams was told by doctors that their child’s life would not be long and if he did make it out of the hospital, that he wouldn’t make it past 7 years old. Alma Adams believed God in that situation and her son is still here today. At age 7, Adams faced another trial; he was a victim of child molestation at a community fair. This trial had a very big impact on his life but still like the childhood health problems, the blood of Jesus Christ too has overcome this. God has given him an awesome testimony! Adams accepted his call to minister in 1991 and is the author of Diary of a Shattered Spirit & Forgetting Those Things.

    Who Can I Talk To?

    Due to the present state of the world and the influences that the world have on the church today, we find that many people cannot trust their spiritual leaders enough to seek proper counseling on deep inner personal issues. The mentality of the world have some how crept into the church giving us the body of Christ a insensitive attitude for the struggles facing our fellow believers in the Lord. We have begun to pick up more of our lives and less of the crucified life of Jesus Christ. We sometimes take on a holier than thou judgmental attitude making it virtually impossible to council with us. How quick do we forget that we were once blind and through the cleansing power of the blood of Jesus we can now see. I found myself asking this question over and over again. Who Can I Talk To?

    As I often sometimes reflect back on a day that my life was changed forever, I never regret the trials that I endured as a child. It all started with one trip to the neighborhood carnival. I was always captivated with the chasing lights, candy apples, popcorn, games, prizes, teddy bears & animals. Even the screams of people enjoying themselves as they rode together on the various carnival rides excited me. Like any other 7-year-old child, I loved to have fun on my big sisters expense. One day my dream came true, to visit the carnival up the street in the plaza from my house. I was ecstatic and ready to venture into the world of Fun. My heart was set on playing games and winning prizes, but my sister had learned from our previous visit when we arrived with 150.00 and exited with 50 cents. That taught her the meaning of wisdom when caring for an excited energetic 7-year-old child at a carnival.

    The day we entered into the carnival, I could remember people were all around enjoying themselves. There was a man there offering to take all the kids for a free ride on the Ferris wheel. The offer sounded good, besides kids cannot resist a free carnival ride. My sister and her friend were watching the other children play games as I got in line to ride the Ferris wheel. The crowd was getting more aggressive in laughs, screams and excitement to the rides. By that time, other adults had consented to allow for their children to partake in this free ride.

    In all the excitement of the fun and games I begged my sister to let me ride. It was my turn. As I ventured off into my seat I felt a rush of adrenaline. I was so excited about the ride. The bars locked us in and the wheel began to move. Round and Round I went caught up in the excitement of the ride. The nice man that I was sitting next to in the seat began to talk to me. He began to tell me how cute I was and suddenly I felt his hands on my chest rubbing against my chest. He started telling me that I was going to make someone a very special friend. He then began moving his hands between my little legs and then onto my thighs. As the ride came to an end, I exited quickly. I began to think to myself What Happened’ & Why was he doing that to me?" At that moment I felt feelings that I could not explain. As he rubbed his hand over my chest, I felt his hands going in a circular motion as he touched the mid to upper parts of my chest area. I continued to feel awkward as he took his hand and pressed the mid section between my legs and thighs. During all of this, he took advantage of the times that the Ferris wheel rose high enough to escape the view of the adults below watching others on the ride. He continued to pull me towards him and then kissed me on the left side of my face close to the corner of my mouth.

    I didn’t have words to explain my experience on the Ferris wheel, all I knew is that I was put in an awkward position. That was the first of many incidents to change my life forever!

    The memory of that day is so fresh in my mind.
