Hi,
I am completely new to this site ... and to a large extent, new to Christianity. I've always been around it, just as part of my culture; I have had a Christian education, but never truly listened in church. I considered myself an agnostic, and was searching for my true faith.
Then, just on this Ash Wednesday, when I was at a service, I heard the preacher say: "We have started using people and loving things; it is time to love people and use things." From that moment I realised that Christianity really held the answers I was looking for.
I feel bad that I largely ignored many arguments before, but feel I have come through stronger as a result of having a faith which wasnt always present. I wasn't brought up specifically Christian; but now I am. It is a lot to take in, but I am loving life (and God).
God Bless
