Coming to accept Christ was definitely the most rewarding experience of my life. It has changed me. Knowing and accepting Christ has brought me joy. I spent years being depressed, battling with sadness but I remember the night I truly accepted Christ. I had never experienced true joy before that night. Now, I can’t imagine living without that joy and life without Christ for me would mean life without joy and peace. Since the moment I accepted Christ I knew the meaning of living. Life is about much more than counselors, psychiatrists or drugs to give me stability. I couldn’t find it in self help books; I found it in Christ. I remember the first time I read II Corinthians 5:17:
“Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation; the old has gone and the new has come!”
I was so excited because I did feel like a new creation, a new person and because I knew that Jesus gave me a second chance. As well as a third, fourth, and fifth chance too…
