What's My Story
Deborah
Even though I had this, I don't think I fully understood how great this was for me. Although I knew all the concepts, I didn't appreciate the true depth of what I had received.
Over time, I guess I was pretty much just satisfied with life but never really delved any deeper into it all. At that time, I was attending the kid's service at church. Although this was a great service, I didn't challenge me in any way and often found myself being bored. Although I'd participate, I'd much rather talk with my friends.
When I was about 12 and started to go to a church service aimed for high schoolers, it was here that I really began to understand about what I believed in. It was here that I got more involved in my faith and began to have a really growing desire and passion for Jesus Christ.
Now that I've done that, I'm just incredibly glad that I know that I have eternal life. I gives me a real purpose in life and I have such a reasurement that I know where I'm going after I die . Especially when I hear about all the things that have happened: terrorism, war, tsunamis (something that man can't control) where millions of people die, where the unexpected occurs- I am so thankful I no longer need to fear death.
I know for sure that I have eternal life and am definitely 100% sure, that I would go to heaven, if I were to die.
