Hello

[StaceySGMW]

Apologies for the lack of interesting title, I lack creativity.

My name is Stacey, I'm 19 from England and would like to share my story.

I've been religious all my life, attended Church every Sunday and even became a Sunday School teacher, then my Nana passed away in 2006, she was the one who instilled religion on me, who taught me about it and such. Since she died, I was led astray, for reasons unknown, even to me, I started to look at other religions out there, some may call it 'religion shopping'. I was never interested in any other religion, and wouldn't say I became disinterested in Christianity, but forgot about it almost whilst I looked at others.

Fast forward to 2010 and after encountering much prejudice from other religions, and nights of long thinking I have felt ashamed, even embarassed that I almost turned my back on my religion, and the God who has always been there for me all along.

Just thought I'd get that off my chest as I felt immense guilt towards this and only hope that God can honour me as one of his servants, and that I can live in his name from now, until the day I die.

Thanks for reading,
Stacey

Welcome to the forums!

Welcome to the place to explore the faith in the bubbly verbage of many voices. Look for the still waters, where God reveals to you a "Peace that passes all understanding" and trust God is leading you there. It may not be in harmony with traditional theology, but then God is not static in His leadings and He is leading his people to "come out of her". Only He truly knows what is "her" and what is "come out". So go to Him and seek Him, and search Him while He may be found. May God bless you in your spiritual journey.
