I first came to Christ a month ago. For some this may seem like a shock, because so many people grew up with Christ in their lives. Yes, I was raised Catholic, but it did nothing for me. Sure, my mom made me go to mass every Christmas, and Easter, but it never meant anything to me. I sort of believed it when I was younger, but that was it. I went through a lot as a child; abuse by my father, molestation by my father that continued until I was 16, and so much more. As I came into my teenage years, I was agnostic. I believed there could be a God, but it was nothing to me. Then I suddenly came to the realization that if there was no God, would I have gotten through this? There would be no possible way. I began researching, and wow. I had so many personal experiences, and then I looked up a Church. I accepted Jesus a month ago, and that hole in my heart, that could not be filled by anything, was finally filled. I'm just so much more of a happier person, so much different. But a better different. I go to Church for MYSELF, not my mom now. I just do it all for myself. I read my bible, I pray. It's just so wonderful. I'm so glad I'm so loved by Jesus.
