Jesus is my savior

[mabarrow12]

Hello All,
I just wanted to say a few words of about what my savior did for me.
I have always been a believer in that there was a God, but never really tried to live my life that way. I grow up in church, I prayed; sometimes, and I would talk about God. I had even accepted Jesus in my life, twice, but still something was missing.
I now have rededicated my life to Him (2/2006) and finally understand that even though I was not living in Him he was with me. He knew all about me and knew that I did not understand that when you accept Him in your life he has to become your everything. That all that I wanted, thought, believed had to fall away so he could come in my life and change me into the person that He wanted me to be. I see now that the sin that I was willingly committing in my life was keeping me from truly experiencing the true nature of salvation.
I am not perfect and will never be, not until my savior returns and takes me up and gives me my new spiritual body. Because for right now I am only a saved sinner, but I will continue to allow Jesus and the Holy Spirit to chip away myself so God's love can shine through me.
Thank you Lord,
Mitzi

Thank you all for the wonderful welcome. I am trying to find my way around the forum slowly but surely.

Chad - I read a thread last night that you started in Jan 06 "Christian or Catholic". The thread is close now but I wanted to post a reply anyway, and this is it;
Thank you - I know nothing about the RCC but the one thing the Holy Spirit has said to me from the beginning of my walk with Jesus is that He alone is my savior. I come to God through Him in prayer and faith. Mary did not save me from "MY ROAD TO HELL", Jesus did. The Bible states (John 16:24) "Ask using my name, and you will receive". I don't understand doing anything other than that and not thinking it goes against what the true teacher said we should do when praying to the Father. So thank you again.
