"Before I had a relationship with Jesus Christ I was always trying to be in control of everything and worrying about everyone's problems and trying to fix them. I was dating a Christian my sophmore year of high school. He was always quoting John 3:16 to me and, at the time, it was the only scripture he had memorized.
One day, while I was at work, I was angry because my parents were making my teenage life difficult because I was dating a Christian and they didn't think I needed saving from anything. I knew I needed to be saved...so right then and there I told God, "I can't do this anymore, I need You. Please forgive me of my sins. I need You to be in charge of my life." At that moment it felt like a ton of bricks had been lifted off my shoulders!
Since that time my life has changed. It is such a relief knowing that there is Someone bigger to handle all of your problems with the love that only Christ can have. As a mother, I constantly pray for my daughter to have that same relationship with Jesus that I have and for my son to continue to grow in Christ. I pray that you will choose to allow Jesus to come into your heart and life."
