I was 18 when I made my decision (1992) and I have no regrets either. God bless you.

Wonderful when i got saved i was at a horrible low point in my life i had lived a life of sin that was really bad. Boy did it change me and my outlook and my thoughts. I used to have a horrible foul mouth and a temper to match i was afraid of many things couldnt sleep was afraid of the dark i was a adult. But what a burden was lifted from me. I knew about the Lord my mother was a sunday school teacher and on the church board i went sundays and wednesdays until i was 18. So half my problem was guilt to be set free from all the guilt and shame and other baggage. All the praise and glory goes to Jesus Christ. What a good and Merciful Savior we have.

Amen sister. Isn't God good. I was 16 and lived with a step mom who was an atheists, but I went to visit my uncle for the summer and he took me to church and God saved my soul and kept me strong when I had to return home and she made fun of my experience. I'm 52 now and He's helped me through mental and physical child abuse and with some other things that I know I could not have endured without HIS love.

I had a "Similar" experience. I realized that my "sins" were learning experiences, and I should learn from them, and not make the same mistakes again and try to be a better person in general and not beat myself up about it. I should not feel guilty for being human. God did give us free will. If we did not "sin" then how could we learn? -this is not a christian point of view. Not that your point of view is wrong everyone should believe in what they feel is truth. Like your experience changed you mine changed me. I feel much better these days.

I feel what u believe will be and sometimes we need to believe in something to think we could not of done it alone,
i dont like to think that someone sends there only begotton son to die for others ???? If that is what it takes from a " LOVING GOD" TO KILL HIS OWN SON TO SHOW US LOVE.....LOL, I SAY KILLURSELF THEN FOR IT SHOWS WEAKNESS....SORRY just my thought about the message people push on others and Eve bit the apple not Adam of course and I guess Us poor women have made it the mans world it is today way back then for were blamed in there as well....

when i was twelve i learned to read the bible & it made me accept God in my life. eventhen, i still feel i need to know Him more. i'm now 21 years old and i continue to sin no matter how i try not to. it's really sad thinking that after all He's blessed me with, i continue to go beyond His path. i always pray for Him to give me strength & guide me so that i could resist temptations and do things according to His will. i'm really happy to have Him in my life. & i feel so blessed with His message for me today(Hebrews 12:1-6).
