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.

that's wonderful, KCJIs. hopefully, your father will come to Christ soon too, and wouldn't it be wonderful if you were the one to lead him to the Lord? I know that would be hard, considering what he has done to you, and perhaps I am being a bit hipocritical for saying this, but if God could forgive someone like you and me and s many other loosers out there, (see the being a christian is for loosers thread), and I'd have to put a BIG L on my forehead, for that matter, who are we to say who we should and should not forgive? i'll be praying for you:thumbsup:. oh, and welcome to the Familly of God:D
