How God Changed Me

Before receiving eternal life, I felt lost and didn't know who I was, but after I received eternal life, I felt like I was already home and was loved and accepted as I was.

For about a year, I was lost in sin. I had realized I was homosexual, and was too drawn by the temptation. I put God off and focused more on my own earthly wants instead of realizing what God had already done for me and where he wanted me to be.

One night I was having trouble with fear after a disturbing experience. I was very unsettled and no matter what I tried, I couldn't get the thoughts and fear off of my mind....that is until I started listening to my old favorite worship songs. Then I felt this amazing, indescribable peace and love just wash over me.

Since my change, I no longer deal with any doubts, or distant feelings from God, as I know he is here with me and loves me no matter what and died so I would be able to be with him for eternity, and I've felt him in ways I have never imagined.

I have many people in my life who used to bother me. I used to despise people who did wrong and unforgivable things. Now, I have this love for everyone and I have found it so much easier to forgive.

Despite ups and downs, and the darkest times that I've gone through, now I know that through it all, Jesus is with me, holding me, and loving me through it all. And after this is all over, I know the most amazing eternity is waiting for me.
