Fear of Death and emptiness

I feel joy and I am comforted, knowing God loves me and accepts me with all my faults.

My faith was tested when I almost died jumping from a high cliff into a glacier lake. My family were not with me, and I was very scared. I felt lost in this situation, the pain and problems had beaten me down. I felt hopelessness and alone, I actually had fear of death and the unknown. I knew about Jesus, but I did not have a true relationship with Him. Praying to God saved me from my fear and my soul. My family praying for my healing saved my life. God's promises of eternal life and his love for me, saved me from the crippling fear of death, it has brought me amazing peace in all the struggles of life.

The same peace God gave me in that situation is what sustains me everyday. I know He wants a relationship with me and a response to His free gift of salvation. I freely give Him my life and my love.
