Glory to God: How I found peace

Before I found my faith in Jesus Christ I spent the majority of my time worrying...worrying and feeling angry. I was angry at the world, I felt abandoned and alone.

When Christians encountered me, they saw my state of unrest and shared their faith with me...hearing their testimonies just made me more angry because I felt like they were so at peace in their lives and I had nothing but chaos. I envied them and asked myself "Why do they deserve such peace?" I never knew the key to my own eternal salvation was right there for the taking, God has just been waiting for me. I spent many years lost and searching for answers in all the wrong places. I was constantly worrying about the future and dying. I blatantly defied God and sinned against Him to show my anger and all the while He has patiently and lovingly waited for me.

Then I found eternal salvation through Jesus Christ

Now that I have eternal life I no longer worry about death and dying. The anger that took root in my heart has been replaced by peace, love and joy.

I used to be terrified of singing in front of others and now spend my days singing the Lord's praise and sharing his message with others. I have peace in knowing God and I pray constantly for Him to continue to work in me and teach me to grow. I am no longer defiant and blatantly sinful, I have joy in obedience and declare Jesus Christ my savior!

I have learned that this life on earth is such a small part of what God has intended for us and I know for certain that when I die I will have eternal life in heaven
