When did you commit to/believe God and Jesus Christ? [Spirituality & Religion]

I've only been very serious about my faith for a short time. I feel a little confused and left out almost, because it does make life very different and I have always been pretty careless.

How did you feel when you became serious about God? Was it hard? A relieve? I feel like a child all over again.

10 years ago in January 2008, when I was going through a very tough try trial that I had caused myself due to being stupid and immature. It was one of the darkest times of my life and I realized the only way to get through it was to get serious about God.

@SW-User I commend you for following Christ and accepting him as your personal Savior. Your salvation experience sounds so much like mine. I was very stupid and immature. Also the darkest time in my life. But Jesus sure turned it around for me for the best, as I allowed the Holy Spirit to transform me. I’ve never been sorry and I would do it all over again because he is so worth it. Many have such a misconstrued conception of what following Christ really means, and what it is. Congratulations on your decision in 2008 and new birth at that time. I’m so happy that like me, you found Him just in time. It’s so important to read our Bible and stay close to God. He gives us such strength through his word and helps us grow through the leading of his Spirit.
