Jesus Christ Is All I've Ever Known

All I have ever known is eternal life, so I can't imagine how difficult this present life would be without the Holy Spirit living within me.

I am a sinner, and I make mistakes and screw up all the time. However, thanks to God, I have been kept safe from numerous sins that would have made life even more difficult than it already is. For instance, I've never been arrested or served time in prison. I've never gone through withdrawals or experienced a hangover. I've never had to fear a woman would tell me she's pregnant, or that I've caught a life-threatening disease for the sake of momentary pleasures. I know all this sounds arrogant and self-righteous, but I give myself no credit for avoiding these things. Without God's Holy Spirit pointing me in the right direction, I know I would be living a very different life.

I may not remember with great detail the moment that I came to know the Lord, but I cannot deny the lasting work He has done to shape my life. I know my salvation is secure in Him.
