I GOT SAVED WHEN I WAS EIGHT

 

   By Rachel: From Sandy Springs, Oklahoma

 

  When I was eight years old I got saved, not knowing what getting "saved" really meant.  I did it cuz everyone else was doing it and thought if I didn''t get saved I would go to hell.  In 2000 I went to falls creek with my church and rededicated my life to God and was amazed By Gods presents.  Well that whole year was awesome. Then this past summer in 2001 I went back to falls creek to lead my friend to Christ and dedicated my life to doing missions which is totally awesome. I felt the presence of God like I have never felt him before. And now in my first semester of College I joined Students For Christ, doing a one on one with God, doing a bible study and  LIVING TOALLY FOR GOD!! I LOVE IT!! I stopped going to church four months ago to a church I have been going to for 18 years cause  I didn''t like it anymore and wasn''t getting anything spiritual out of it as it was just like a social gathering with my friends. Well My friend Laura asked me to go to church with her one sunday and I told her I would and  have been going ever since. If it wasn''t for her sharing her faith and love for God with me I would be sooo lost right now. But right now I am loving and living for God and sharing my faith with others and just feeling Gods presences is sooo awesome. I''ve never prayed soo much in my life. And every time I pray now I feel God right there with me listening to me!!
