Heather's first story


Hi~
Since I am sixteen and Hope (my youngest sister) is twelve we have a lot of catching up to do on what has happened in our lives. For me I'll start when I was eight years old on Easter. Pastor Rob of Calvary Chapel Vista asked those who would like the Lord Jesus Christ into his or her heart to come in front of the stage. Then he would lead those WILLING in a prayer. I got all excited and Nana Beane said she would go down with me. So then and there I told God that I knew I was a sinner and wanted to follow Him for the rest of my life and that was how I became a Christian. A choice that has helped me live life more abundantly. I was made for this moment. To pledge myself to God. To praise Him in my life, through my actions, and in all my words (with the help of the Holy Spirit). I am NOT saying I am a goodie goodie. I say mean things and break things and hurt people. I am human but the amazing thing is EVERYTHING that I do wrong can be wiped from existence when I confess my sins to God and repent (know that it was wrong and try my darnedest to not do it again). To go to heaven all we people have to do is believe in Christ Jesus, the son of God, and confess our sins. God doesn't measure sin like some people do. Murder is just as bad as lying. Sin is sin. We are all guilty of sin (Romans 3:23).
