Let me challenge u [Spirituality & Religion]

If youre religious, why are u? Really think about the reason. now, from the most unbiased perspective u can possibly take, do u honestly think that reason is realistic or rational?

I follow Jesus because I stood at a point in life where I had a choice.

I could have continued the drug abuse, the random women I don't remember, the nights I don't remember, the endless searching for something to help me deal with all my pain.

I could have chosen Jesus, the wild card. The one that people told me could help me not just mask my problems and simply survive, but truly transform me as a man, turn my life into something worth living.

I chose the wild card in hope of redemption and that I could escape the inevitable downward spiral I was on.

I continue to follow Jesus because my life, although bad things still happen, I have come to a point where I can cope with everything in a way I feel is much healthier than putting poison in my mind and body and that lets me really learn about the meaning of things.
