My transformation

Before I received eternal life I was self centered.

I remember when I got married I had great difficulty being submissive to my husband. I was overly rebellious and disrespectful to him until our marriage literally died. I thought that my life has come to an end because I could not do what pleases me. I wanted everything to be done my way or no way.

Even though I knew about God and what God wanted for me, it was a challenge to fully dedicate my entire life to Him. I always wanted to hold back a piece of me. After much internal battle with my conscience i knew that if I wanted eternal life I would have to forget about me and allow God to transform my life...which is exactly what I did. Of course persons played a part in helping me to change.

Now that I have eternal life I view life from a different perspective. Holistically I think about others instead of my needs and wants.

So after I wanted out of my marriage I decided to further my study away from home. My husband decided that I can go....he was glad to be getting rid of me. All through this I knew I did not have eternal life because I knew I had some ways displeasing to God. Nevertheless, I continued with my self centered life. One old year's day I decided to fast and prayed for my marriage. I was convicted. I didn't want God in the centre of my marriage so I decided to change that. With much information gained from reading and words of encouragement from others I took the bold step of transforming my life and live for Christ. That new year I fully comitted my entire life to God and witnessed a turn around in my life. I know now that I have eternal life.

I know that I have eternal life because I understand and know that I have been saved through faith and by God's grace He redeemed me of my sins and If I am to die now I know for sure that I would go to heaven.
