I wanted to talk today about why i believe in God, its something that i've mentioned, but have never explained - And i see it as my most interesting quality, so hear goes...
(this is really difficult btw)
Christianity is about relationships, its not about conforming to rules or regulations, in fact the people who i look up to, are the ones who have broken the rules, who listen and have a solid relationship with Jesus.
When i was in year 9 & 10, i had warts all over my hands, and more than anything it really ruined my confidence and i hated God, i didn't understand why if he was good he would let his happen. It came to the end of year 10, and i was so fed up, i agreed to go to this christian festival called soul survivor http://www.soulsurvivor.com/uk/index.html and on the last night in the main meeting they said if you need prayer for illness stand up, it literally took everything i had, to over come my embarrassment and ask for healing. By standing up that day, i was trusting God that he would heal me. And he did, and i knew he did from the moment i stood up, the following weeks i saw my hands heal and return to normal, for the first time in like over 2 years.
Make of that what you will. What i want to say is that, Christianity is a personal thing, to have somebody who loves you and knows you completely is scary but amazing. Its a difficult challenge, it involves doing things you don't want to do, facing fears and taking risks, but its about trust in God.
Christians arn't a separate race, you probs didn't realize i was a christian when you first met me, and i like it that way.
My church is amazing, i love it http://www.antiochchurch.co.uk/ Sunday is the highlight of my week, i get tea, friends, music, jesus in one morning. Super!
anyway, hope that was a little insight, ask me questions if you wish, im not gunna pretend to know all the awnsers, but i'll do my best.
Love
