"Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen." Hebrews 11:1
That passage pretty much sums it up. It happens to be my favorite passage--when I first read it, it touched my heart. Now, I may not often read the Bible, as I should; but I have been saved.
On July 20th, or somewhere around that point, I left for church camp with my friends. Going there, I was sure that I had been saved, but wasn't sure if I was going to heaven--which doesn't make sense. X.x Anyway, being at church camp changed me, and it's not hard to miss. Everytime I hear someone cuss, I cringe, and I wasn't like that before. I used to love rock music, but now I feel guilty listening to it. I always wanted to be pretty, and I'd wear a pound of makeup each time we left the house--but that's changed. I am a much happier person, I have nothing to fear. If I died right now, I wouldn't mind a bit. But don't be judgemental, Christian people aren't all the same. Although you probably see tons of stereotypes on tv, not everyone is like that. We know how to have fun. Heck, at Church camp, the whole community joined in a burping contest!! :P
But, if you want some advice, you'll never, *ever*, be truely happy until you find God. Don't wrinkle your nose at me, I'm only telling the truth. [back]
