Most definitely. With Jesus Christ as my personal Savior, my life has become better. I cannot say that problems simply go away. But now I am better able to handle them. I know that I am always loved by my God (as is everyone!!) and He will never forsake me! Many people avoid Christianity because it "limits" you. But living by Biblical standards expands you!! You can do so much more when you have love in your heart!! Jesus gives me the strength to move on in life even when I am at the most devastating points in my life. It also eases the fear of death. Knowing that you will have an eternal loving home when your life here is over is such a comforting thing! Jesus is my friend, and I can share my most personal thoughts and problems with Him - and He cares!! If you're not used to praying, it can be awkward at first, but be sincere, and don't worry about any formalities! He loves you so much; He understands if you don't know exactly what to do! If you're thinking about becoming a Christian, it is important to find Christian friends to help you through questions that will without a doubt occur. But Jesus is the best friend you could ever ask for!! God Bless!!

Well I noticed once I got saved I was slow to get angry at people and I could not stay mad at people. I could also forgive people a lot easier. I havent noticed any drastic changes and Ive been saved for I would say about 10 years. I also held my tounge a little more whenever I really wanted to say something that I shouldnt. I just need to learn to stop cursing! Good question!

Each Christian's testimony is personal to the individual believer. Moreover, "change for the better" is at best a subjective determination; it may (but also may not) include the gain of physical privations and spiritual enlightment.
However, in answer to your question, "yes."
The improvement derived from two revelations: the first concerned my value as a son of God and joint-heir with Christ; the second concerned my growth as an agent of the Author of life.
It is my faith in Christ that inspired me to science and reason, to challenge the veracity of all the information to which I am exposed, and to shun vain superstition.
The former identified revelation is commonly dismissed by unbelievers as a self-esteem issue, but that diagnosis is inaccurate in that it dismisses vital subtleties and grossly oversimplifies the psychological and philosophical constructs thereof.
The latter identified revelation is commonly complained of by unbelievers, who interpret human agency of a deity to be an outrageous usurpation evincing unsurpassable hubris.
Indeed, many (perhaps most) claiming faith in Christ actually have no idea who Christ is -- and the things they say and do (the policies they promote, enact and enforce; etc.) ultimately prove they hate Christ and love the Antichrist.
Very often, the words and deeds of such posers are so caustic they evince hatred against one or more population groups among mankind -- and with alarming frequency, those impostors reveal their contempt towards themselves.
Whether such self-hatred is universal among those pretending to be Christians, I do not know. I do recognize that their usurpation of the icons and jargon of Christianity is both thoroughgoing and popular.
Moreover, I recognize that the popularity of Antichristian laws and policies, the popularity of hatred and the rise of an oligarchy of elitists advancing the aims of fascism in the name of freedom all conspire to make legitimate Christians the objects of derision and scorn.
The greatest challenge for the believer is to understand the will of the Divine, through logic and reason to be able to make sense of life's complexities, to apply mercy always in preference to condemnation, to live a life that reveals to others the character of Christ.
And the best part is being empowered to do exactly that.

chosen before the foundation of the world - God has always been in my life from the begining... The only thing really different since the time of when I believe I was saved - Is that I recognise and can see how God has been in my life and I'm very grateful for the understanding of the scriptures he has given me. I'm glad that I'm no longer lurking in the dark.

the trouble ended in my life because i was living for God, not me. so yeah, i wasnt causing my problems, but once you stop making your spouse/friend/family mad you begin making Satan mad because you stopped living for him. So trouble comes in bunches as a Christian. but wow, think of the rewards. listen to POD's music, POD standing for Payable On Death. Meaning, this life sucks alot, but Heaven is so perfect.

Actually, things can be tougher for you, since this culture is so hostile to Christians. You must endure it.

it is both better and tougher, better because of the gift of the Holy ghost and tougher because there is so much negative out there, but the Holy Ghost helps us if we let him
