I've come so far.

I was baptized as a catholic. and as i grew up, church became a mandatory thing. like, i HAD to go. and even when i did go, i barely listened to the sermon. i even attended catechism classes, but only to have fun with friends, seriously-_- last year, i started to lose my faith in God. i started to doubt him, and i stopped coming to church. but my best friend kriselle introduced something new to me. FACC Youth Nights. she invited me to come to it one friday. and even though it was christian and i was starting to lose my faith almost completely, i decided to give it a shot. it turned out to be really great. and i really couldn't believe how much effort these kids put into worshiping God. and they were around my age! i mean, i knew catholics around my age who really didn't even like church. but they loved to worship God.

sooo week by week, i came more. and each week i could feel myself getting closer to God. there were even some days where i would cry from all the emotions inside me. i loved youth night, still do too. and i'm SOOO GRATEFUL that the Lord has saved me, and i've accepted Him into my life. i'm SOOO GRATEFUL for meeting these people and being able to praise the Lord without feeling embarrassed or ashamed. i'm ready to start over, and finally find my heart.
