[QUOTE="GrayAngel, post: 60507379, member: 162431"] Awesome! I'm happy for you! That kind of feeling is something commonly referred to as a "spiritual high." It feels awesome, but it's short-lived. It can be felt at the moment of conversion, but it shows up in other times too, such as when you go on a mission trip or a Christian retreat. For me, the latter has consistently caused it. The important thing to remember is that God is with us at all times, even when we're not feeling it. Our emotions will always fluctuate, but God never changes. To repent literally means to turn away, to walk in the other direction. First, you have to recognize that you're a sinner and that Jesus is the only one who can save you. Then you turn away from your sin, replacing bad habits with incompatible good habits. Repentance is more than just feeling sorry. It's living out your faith. PS: The rep button is the light bulb icon in the upper right of each post. [/QUOTE]
