The Beginning of Something Big

Being saved is such an amazing thing because you make a decision to let God be in the drivers' seat until you join Him in heaven. I was saved the summer before sixth grade at a church camp. It was the last night of camp, and we were in between songs. My pastor asked if anyone wanted to dedicate their life to Christ. I grabbed a couple of my friends, and we walked to the front of the group.

Before I knew it, almost every girl in my grade was up at the front with us. We all discussed what it meant to be saved, and we prayed. During the prayer, everyone was touched by the Holy Spirit. Once everyone had opened their eyes, we all started crying and hugging. After worship, our counselors brought us back to the cabin. As a group, we stayed up until about midnight discussing how God changed us. That was only the beginning of my relationship with Jesus.

It's been almost three years since that night, and I've learned so much. God loves at all times, Jesus chose to die for us, and most of all, God will ALWAYS let you have a new start, because He forgives you.
