Met a Christian family, and couldn't believe the difference in their home and mine. They invited me to church and did bible study with my friend and I. For me the truth of the Bible was evident. In Ephesians 5 where it talks about the roles each person should play in a family... Well, I didn't see much of that in my house, and I could see that if it had been more like that it would have been better. Once I could see that truth it seemed like everything I read made sense. Then you reach a point where if this is true, and this and this are true, why can I not have faith on the rest of it. Gods Word had shown itself trustworthy. And it hasn't let me down yet.

I was sorta a Christian my whole life, but my first girlfriend died when I was 17 and she was 16, and we used to pray every night and since all our prayers turned out useless I became very hateful towards God and particularly Christ. In an empty field in front of an image of the cross and Christ I was swearing at it and cursing at God as loud as I can and whatever I "thought" he was answering in my heart, I would curse back at him....... basically I was having a fight in the middle of an empty field.
Then I just realized how I was actually cursing God, which means if I spend the time to curse him, that must mean that I at least believe he exists..... Then I began thinking about what Christ did and he did something worth praising, I couldn't deny that..... Then I realized how I did not deserve Christ to die for my sake, and that of all the sins I committed among the worst......... But then I realized how merciful God is if you accept his Grace....... So I guess in short, he won that fight in the middle of the field, and I accepted his Grace.

No "particular" situation, just the fact I always felt within my spirit Jesus was always there. Just had to "get over myself" first... rock and roll, sex, booze ect... Everyone takes a different road in life, as to how they want or don't want to accept him, I found out the hard way he was the only way, the only truth, the only life that I needed. It's really enlightening to someone when they finally realize "what an idiot I really was", to love what the world had to offer, which in no way, shape, or form... compares to the love Jesus offers within ones spirit and life. As you can see... I didn't listen to my science class teacher.

My life was a mess. I had a huge empty space that is for the Lord.
I woke up one Sunday and Jesus spoke to me and said, "today".
I told someone on here once, that Jesus looks for love in all the wrong places.
I was in bars, in drug houses, in a bad relationship. I had a foul mouth, and wasn't a very nice person to be around.
didn't matter... Jesus put a ring on my finger and the robe of rightessness on me.
He loved me when no one else could, and I wouldn't let anyone else for that matter.
I hope that you have found him too.
