I was 15 when I became a Christian. I am now 51. My life is ever changing - as I learn more and more about my Lord and Savior, I grow. As I encounter temptations, trials, triumphs, I learn and mature as a Christian. It's not bang and you are changed into the person you should be - it is a slow, life-long process. I am different today than I was yesterday and tomorrow I will be different again. I have learned forgiveness, love, kindness, compassion, patience - but I am not as forgiving, loving, kind, compassionate or patient now as I will be when God is done with me.

My life got a whole lot better when I became a christian. I feel as if there is someone out there who will always love me and care for me no matter what I do in life. I will always be forgiven. I live a happier life just living everyday to its fullest.

Yes, it changed. I was Christian but when I joined back to my church and got baptized, I started to attend the church regular basis. I started to give money to the church and I started to study Bible. I formed a relationship with God. For the long time I felt like I was a spiritual fake because I did not feel God and I still had strong doubts if I was really saved.
What I learned that Jesus died for all of my sins: past, present and future. I rely on His wisdom. I am falling short from the glory of God, but I love Him and I accept His mercy. I put my faith in Him no matter what I am going through.

Once a person is born again, God is not finished with with him; He is just beginning. After the new birth, the individual is turned over to the Holy Spirit for transformation. The tool the Holy Spirit uses to bring about this transformation is the Word of God. The spirit of the new believer has been re-born, brought back to life; that person will go to heaven when he dies

I was 20, on college. I changed over night. My roommate and other friends were a little freaked out. It took me a few months to calm down, but I started reading voraciously. I now have a library of several thousand books, most on theology, philosohy, art, and religious history.
It didn't change my life as much as give me life out of all the fragmented parts it was before.

Well, for starters, the hangovers went away, my "FRIENDS" stopped hanging around for someplace to party all the time, I could finally sleep because I stopped lying awake all night trying to figure out the best way to end my life, I got a job, I got real friends, I GOT PEACE OF MIND, I got Jesus and the Holy Ghost. So does that answer your question? If you're looking for Jesus all you have to do is ask Him to be your Lord and Savior and he will be glad to do that for you.

I came to realise that it isn't about me. It's about God. So my life changed in the sense that I stopped looking at what I should obtain in this world, but rather, what should I do to please God. Sure, I'm a sinner, and I'll never make it to heaven except for the gift of Christ who died for me and was raised from the dead so that I could be cleansed of my sins. To be a christain means to be christ-like. I'm a pale shadow of Christ, but I seek to learn more about him each day and any time I slip, I'm quick to run back to him in prayer. I study my bible each day and go to church as often as I can. I can go on and on and on, but I think that you understand. I'm seeking to please him and give my life over to him.
