Hello all!
I’m so excited to try this. To start off, I’ve gone though a lot in my short life (I’m 21) and had to grow up faster than normal due to my circumstances. I trailed off of the path of faith because I knew there was a God and I knew there was a Jesus Christ but I didn’t understand Jesus and I didn’t understand why he was on the cross and why people prayed to him. I thought he was just another saint. From the ages of 19-21 I underwent abuse which pushed me to the darkness, and I didn’t think I’d live through it (thoughts, evil, not doing right by god). Last year (2018) I started attending church and this year I just started going to fellowship, I started praying everyday and reading the Bible (I’m still studying because I’m trying to learn and have the ability to mentally remember the word lol it’s kinda hard) and it’s brought me into a brand new light and perspective. I don’t want to like for my body anymore, I want to devote myself to Jesus Christ and communicate to god through him. Prayer is the only thing that has gotten me through my trials, even when my faith wasn’t strong I knew someone was listening. I want to get baptized. I don’t have many friends that attend church or people besides my new church family that I can talk to about how to strengthen my faith when I feel disconnected or to just talk about Jesus! Any tips appreciated! Thank you all!
