The Lost Get Found

Hi.

I'm gonna tell about how I got to know Jesus. I'm gonna repost something that I wrote on my blog.

There was a time for about 1 year ago that I felt insecure and lost. I didn't know what to do and blamed myself a lot. I had and still have family problems. I was really depressed. I didn't look as

depressed or sad in social life. Cause people made me think about other things. But deep down I felt like I had to face it all by myself. Those thoughts came in mind. I searched shelter in my friends house. Cause I felt like I needed to talk to someone about it and it have always felt like a second home to me. They were Christian believers and have told me before about God. How he loves me and doesn't want me to be sad. I don't have to face it cause God will do that for me.

They told me I can hide beneath God with his protection. Thats when I started to pray to God. (I think I started to pray even before that.) I prayed for a better tomorrow for about each day.

Thinking back... Those feelings started to fade. My family didn't argue as much and I surrendered myself to God. I turned Christian and somewhat my days are filled with joy. Of course I still have my moments when I get sad but knowing that It's gonna be alright cause God is there. God loves me. I just want to praise God and thank him for everything he have always done for me and and still does. He's the reason I can go through everyday. Without God I would be nothing. (We would be nothing.)

You guys probably didn't read all of this or maybe don't believe me. But it's all truth. 1 year ago I didn't believe in anything. It's like being in a dark room and you don't know how to move away the curtains to light up the room.

(The room is your life.) But the bright light shone through the curtains for you, lighting up your life. 

God loves you and cares. He wants to help you, he does

but cannot help you fully

If you don't believe in him.

I want people to understand these feelings that I have.

Knowing that it will be all good. Feelings of gratefulness and love.

The feeling of being found.

And yes, my family are atheists and buddhist believers. Which can lead to a bit of difficulities. But Jesus changed my life and still does. They can separate me from other things but they can never separate me from God.

Like Britt Nicoles ''The Lost Get found'' lyrics which says:

Don't be afraid to stand out.

God is always there, caring, loving and fighting for you. Just believe.
