Rita I agree. Tim, don't harden your heart to the Holy Spirit.

 

Right before Jesus saved me I got a warning. "Don't harden your heart to the Holy Ghost". And if I did I ether wouldn't ever get saved or it'd be really difficult (because my heart would have been really hardened by than). He saved me after that.

 

We're not promised another second let alone another day. Today is the day of salvation.

King James Bible (Cambridge Ed.) Whereas ye know not what shall be on the morrow. For what is your life? It is even a vapour, that appeareth for a little time, and then vanisheth away.

And as for friends? You'll be gaining the Ultimate Best Friend! Those friends would fade in time anyways but Jesus is a friend that sticks closer than a brother. He'll always be with you. That is one friendship that is truly BFF! :o)

Hi there seeking yeah I agree with that you are saying I grew up in a strong Christian family I always beleaved in god and saw my self arguing with non beleavers at work over there version of the bible and there ignorance to what they knew nothing about,but I was easily led I fell in with people and soon got involved with drink and drugs and getting into alot of trouble but past while I was working for people who where Christians and they just started to talk to me a bout Christ and pray with me in away freaked me out as why has everyone just started to do this with me on 3diff jobs and kept telling me to get saved and I would never experience happiness like it and that it was my time then one night I got scared and started to question alot of things and knew it was my time to sort my life out before it was to late I always had it in my head I've plenty of time get out there get wasted and get with that girl etc but I drew me deeper onto sin and the devil was on control but now even when I'm praying he's constantly trying to redirect my thoughts and prayers but I over power him and then realise how powerfull and great the lords power is.

Tim,

Several days have passed since you posted this discussion: "Struggling to become a Christian." You opened it saying, "I really want to get saved, but ...?" After reading and pondering the responses from Christians encouraging you to accept Christ's call, you wrote this on Friday: "I've asked the Lord into my life and my head feels clear and happy."

Where are you now in your walk with Christ?

 

May the incredible grace of our Messiah, Jesus Christ, be with you!

I'm enjoying learning the word of god I recently got a cd give to me it's a testimony of a leading paramilitary figure from my area laying his guns down and following Christ I listened to it and it really hit home on answers to every thing I ever asked and doubted in a way I was like him grown up and got in to trouble with the law maybe not to the same extent as him but I could relate to what he was saying,I feel alot more at home in the arms of Jesus Christ I've a lot more to learn but I'm making more time for the lord and spending it praying and reading and praising the lord .
