How I live in peace and joy

Before I received eternal life, I was a real worry wart. I worried about my grades in college, my health, my finances, my family and especially about what others thought about me.

As a result of this anxiety, I kept to myself and rarely made new friends. I didn't realize it, but this behavior was very self centered.

Then a co-worker shared with me how I could receive eternal life.

Now, that I have eternal life I feel a sense of peace and purpose.

One day last week, when my car died suddenly, I didn't worry at all. My mother remarked, "I really admire how you react to problems without worry and anger." I didn't even realize it, but I do take everyday challenges in stride now.

The best part is that the peace I experience is new everyday. I know that if I were to die tonight I would be in heaven.
