My story of knowing Jesus comes about as a kid who grew up unable to comprehend the fullness of the love of God. I grew up in a Christian home and although I knew my parents prayed for us earnestly, things just didn't go as planned. Character building was the focus and being moral, obedient and respectful felt like a chore. I decided to 'please' men and act the part.
One thing we were always taught in church was that a true Christian would see life change. But that was one of the hardest things to do, I couldn't pull off any authentic change because I was still lost. As I began to really question my salvation and began to journey in discipleship groups with my youth group, I began to realize that I truly wasn't saved. Having my eyes opened now, I want to openly declare that I am confident in my salvation and God's unconditional love for me. This is the moment that I've decided to follow Jesus!
