What's My Story
Shawn Howell
So, I decided to be part of the party scene. As a result, my friends were convenient--as long as they helped me party, or I helped them party, we were friends. But, if something bad happended, they were'nt there for me or I for them.
This lack of commitment felt empty. No matter how much fun I tried to be, there was always the possibility that someone else was more fun. I became increasingly insecure and fearful.
Before I received eternal life, I was fearful. I was afraid of not being good enough, not having what it took, not being able to provide for myself, not living up to my parents' expectations.
Then, I received eternal life.
After I received eternal life, I noticed a peace and freedom I had not experienced before. I knew I was accepted by God Himself. I felt loved and calm. God changed me and made me a new person.
Now that I have eternal life, I no longer dwell on things that are wrong or lacking. I now can dwell on what I have seen God do in me and on when He will do in the future.
I know for sure that I will spend forever with God in Heaven. How about you?
