Diary of a new convert in christ
March 15, 2023
I can barely believe it. Today, I made the most incredible decision of my life. I gave my heart to Jesus Christ. I've been attending church for a few months now, and the more I learn about Him, the more I realize how much I need Him in my life.
I remember the first time I heard the Gospel message. It was like a weight was lifted off my shoulders. I felt like I was finally understanding the purpose of life. I realized that I wasn't just a random speck in the universe, but I was created for a reason. I was created to know and love God.
But it wasn't until today that I actually surrendered my life to Him. I was at church, and our pastor was preaching about the importance of faith. He said that faith is not just believing in God, but also trusting in His goodness and sovereignty. And in that moment, I knew that I had to make a choice.
I prayed with my pastor, and I asked Jesus to come into my heart. It was like a floodgate of emotions opened up inside of me. I felt a sense of peace and joy that I've never experienced before. It's like a weight has been lifted off my shoulders, and I can finally breathe again.

I woke up this morning feeling like a new person. I felt lighter, like I was walking on air. I kept thinking about my decision to follow Jesus, and I couldn't help but smile. I felt like I was finally home.
I've been reading my Bible a lot lately, and I'm amazed at how relevant it is to my life. I'm learning so much about God's character and His love for me. It's like I'm discovering a whole new world.
I'm also trying to apply what I'm learning to my daily life. I'm trying to be more patient, kind, and compassionate towards others. It's not always easy, but I know that it's worth it.

I had a tough day today. I was feeling stressed and overwhelmed, and I just wanted to give up. But then I remembered what I learned about God's sovereignty. I realized that He is in control, and that He is working everything out for my good.
I took a few deep breaths, and I prayed. I asked God to help me trust Him more, and to give me the strength to keep going. And you know what? It worked. I felt a sense of peace wash over me, and I was able to face my challenges with confidence.

I've been attending a Bible study group at church, and it's been amazing. We're going through the book of John, and it's like I'm seeing the Gospel message in a whole new light. I'm learning so much about Jesus and His love for me.
I've also been trying to share my faith with others. It's not always easy, but I know that it's important. I want to be a light in the darkness, and to help others find their way to Jesus.

I had a conversation with a friend today, and it was really tough. We were discussing our differences, and I felt like I was getting defensive. But then I remembered what I learned about forgiveness. I realized that I needed to let go of my pride and forgive my friend.
It wasn't easy, but I did it. And you know what? It felt amazing. I felt like a weight had been lifted off my shoulders, and I was able to see my friend in a new light.

I've been thinking a lot about my future lately. I've been wondering what God has in store for me, and what I'm supposed to be doing with my life. But then I remembered what I learned about trusting God. I realized that I don't have to have all the answers, and that I can trust Him to guide me.
It's a scary thought, but it's also a liberating one. I feel like I can finally relax and trust that God has everything under control.

I had a moment of doubt today. I was feeling overwhelmed, and I started to wonder if I had made a mistake by following Jesus. But then I remembered what I learned about God's love. I realized that He loves me no matter what, and that He is always with me.
It was a tough moment, but it was also a moment of growth. I learned that even when I doubt, I can still trust God. And I know that He will always be with me, guiding me and loving me.
