God surprised me!

Before I received eternal life I had little purpose in life.

I was going to work each day but I didn't seem to be accomplishing anything.

Then I discovered how to have eternal life. The meaning of Christ's death and resurrection became more real to me and how it applied to my own life.

Now I can relate very clearly to Christ and what He did for me when He paid for all my sins on the cross. I can see how that includes me in His love for the world. Now His love is real to me, touching my life.

As I shared God's love with our church guests, many, many times, at first I didn't really get it myself. But after awhile, it started to mean more and more to me as I heard it with my own voice!

Now I know that I have eternal life. I know that God's love extends all the way to my life, that I am that important to him. So I know that He will take me to heaven when I die.
