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.

the child part is familiar. you feel like you have so very much to learn and everyone else is miles ahead of you. but in his word God told us we would feel like children and have to dine on the milk of the word before we were ready for the meat of the word. and that's ok. i would start on the gospel of John. read through that and really think about it. from there God will lead you.. i also remember a feeling of relief and happiness. finally, something made sense to me. finally, i belonged. Many here will try to tell you that you are a fool. they will say your believing in fairy tales. just close you ears to all but God's voice inside of you and you can't go wrong. i accepted christ when i was 13, then rededicated my soul at 18 because i had decided there was no God. after a Car accident. but he had other ideas lol and i'm so glad he did
