My Testimony :)

I grew up my whole life being a Jehovah Witness. I'm not going to say anything bad about them because it's not necessary I never got baptized there, although, i was studying since i was six to someday get baptized. Studying with them helped me realize within myself that i love God. I learned so much about him. I learned about what he liked and what he didn't like. I learned about his characteristics. He is loving, fair, powerful, and knowledgeable about everything that we are. I was amazed with him. Growing up i always had him in my heart. I just didn't know how to fully surrender to him. I was confused about how i should serve God. I was always taught to pray to him and talk to him, but how else could i really show him how much he meant to me? I found myself getting further and further away from him because to me, it became work. It became work to try to have this relationship with him other than it being easy to just love him. I felt like i had to try to walk a perfect life for me to be able to have any relationship with him. Well as perfect as i could. When i would fall short here and there, i would become ashamed and i didn't even want to pray to him. I felt like he wouldn't listen to me because i went against his word. Being in the Jehovah Witness organization was very difficult. I never felt his spirit there. I actually came to the point where i didn't even know it was possible to feel his spirit. I would deny anything like that. I was taught that if you felt a spirit of any kind it sure wasn't God. I would try to go weekly, but i would always end up being inconsistent not just with attendance but with my overall relationship with him. I would try my hardest to be into it for a couple of weeks, then i would stop going. One day, i had an opportunity to attend a Christian church called Revolution Church. This was a youth church. It was youth night and for the first time I opened myself fully to God. I wanted to feel him so bad. I was going through a hard time at the moment where, i didn't even know if God was there with me or if he was going to get me through this struggle. When i went to church i asked him to show me who he is. I wanted to feel his his spirit around me. That night was the first night i said to myself that God, is incredible. God loves me. I felt his presence for the first time. It was unbelieveable. So from then on i knew that where i had to be was there. In the Christian congregation. I finally was showed the truth not by a person but by God himself. I got baptised on Easter day of 2013. I will never forget how amazing it felt. I then knew that if i did fall short i could go to him and repent. I shouldn't have to feel ashamed for being human. He loved me no matter what. He loves all of us. I am proud to be a Christian and i don't have a problem telling that to anybody. I still have some things to get through in my life. But i am counting on God to help me get through everything. I have no doubts in him. Keep praying to him and remember that he loves you.<3 he can create miracles. With him anything is possible. God is Victorious.
