Experiences from people who have recently become Christians

"Once I had made a commitment I wanted to ask lots of questions and I had a hunger to learn more.  I felt excited and positive about what the future held for me.  I had no illusions that my life was going to be easy now but I know that God is by my side, walking with me and listening to me and I will draw my strength from him. As I have grown in my Christian life and experience, I have learned so much; things about my myself (things I didn’t like sometimes) but most of all I have learned what is important to me.  Everyday I trust God more with my worries and the plans he has for my life because I know he loves me and wants be to live a happy, purposeful life.     

(Louise, 28)
