My life before I accepted Christ, was emptiness and a lack of purpose.
My life is fulfilled, through Christ, Christ came and died on the cross, rose from the dead to paid the price for my sins and purchased me a place in Heaven. I receive eternal life by faith and save faith is not just heads knowledge nor temporary but true saving faith is trusting in Jesus Christ alone fot my eternal life. If I was to die to night I'm sure I would go to heaven. Now I know my purpose in life is to have eternal life and to share my hope with others, and the gospel that they may have eternal life.
Before I relegate my life to Christ, my life was emptiness/lack of purpose in my life. I was raise in a Christian home, I attend Sunday and Church every Sunday. After grauating from high school, I moved to another state and landed a job, I places job, people, things, in my life that gave me pleasure and happiness. I did not attend Church regular as I did while at home. I wanted a piece of the america dream, having things, associated with friends, and people that met my standard of living. I faithfully contiune to say my prayers at night before going to bed, and prayed about things that was not in my control, thinking by praying would gain me favor with God. I made some bad choices and decisions living a life that was full of emptinee and a lack of purpose.
I was a person who love fast cars and I own a high performance cars, I would always modified my cars for top performance. I had some close causes, one night I was speeding and decided to take a exit too fast before safety slowing down to exit and lost control of the car and could not stop, I went off the road and was heading for a very large concrete block, some how the front miss the block but my rear quart panel hit it and bent my rear wheel. This got me to thinking about my life, and wonder if I had got serious injured or died that night I was not sure would I have went to heaven.
A few months later my brother-in-law hired me to help him with his landscape business on Saturday morning. I agree to work with him, and while we work he would share the Word and would answer questions I ask about the bible and explain the Bible to me. After a month of sharing the gospel with me I begin to feel very shame of who I was and a life full of emptiness and lack of purpose. One Friday night I felt more emptiness and a lack of purpose than I ever felt, and on this same night the Spirit of God convicted me. I prayed to God that night to change who I was, and to make me a better person, seems as if a heavy load on my mind after praying I felt a sense of relief and no longer felt the emptiness and lack of purpose in my life that night.
After receiving Christ in my life I now have purpose in my life, and I know now my life do not consist things I possess, people I associate with, but living my life for Christ and giving Him full control, to use me for good of his glory.
After receiving Christ in my life, I now have a purpose In my life, no longer feel the emptiness and a lack of purpose. I attend Church regular, attend Bible study, sharing my faith with others. I have replace happiness with joyfulness, and most of all I have eternal through Jesus Christ, and He paid the price, and purchase me a place in heaven. If I was to died to night I'm sure I will go to heaven.
Before I accepted Jesus Christ in my life as my savior I was not sure where I would spend eternal. Now I know for certain if I was to died tonight I'm sure I would spend eternal with Christ in heaven.
