Read these and then think about them.
Before going to this prayer meeting and getting to know someone really special: God, I wasn't anything really bad but I was just indifferent. Even though many times I felt something missing in my life and never guessed what was really missing and so i tried to fill this empty space with several things which didn't change anything.
however when I tried to let God enter my life he fitted in correctly and changed my whole life. He took all my broken peices and exchanged them with peace and love!
So, the Good News is that he is ready to do all this even with You. He is only waiting for you to tell Him to enter in your life.
He will NEVER leave you because:
"He is MAD about You"
I think many of you have asked someone whether he/she loves you and sometimes we do get negative answers.
Well, I have asked Jesus:
"How much do you love me?"
He answered,
"This much" and He stretched but His arms and died.
So if you feel lonely, afraid,insecure or just need a new source of life, turn to God.
He does not give you the answer, but
HE IS THE ANSWER.
TRUST IN HIM AND HE WILL SURPRISE U
GOD BLESS YOU

I never really considered myself to be a true, good christian, until a year ago, exactly in November when I came for my first true encounter with Christ. It was the famous meeting everybody was talking about in school, the Teens 2 Gather meeting. So I said to myself, why not give it a try, and I went.
As soon as I entered the door of Gattard House there was a writing on the wall "Jesus, the rock of my salvation". I immediatly felt peaceful, calm, at ease and most of all myself, me, Sarah, as I am.
The meeting began and everyone was praising and gloryfying God with beautiful songs. However, the thing that struck me most was everybody, every individual, was praising God. But it showed that wasn't superficial. it actually came from their hearts. Even the fact that the people where young people with ages ranging from 13 to 17.
Then after singing, doing activities and eating, finally it was the time for adoration, where the Blessed Sacrament was exposed to us. It was brilliant!
Andrew, the leader started praying and at one point he said to open our hearts to God and also to accept his eternal love which He has for us even if we sinned and did wrong things. As soon as he said this, I started recalling all the things I did in the past and I said to myself "How can God ever love a person who swears all the time, who believes in horoscopes, palm reading, superstitions and most of all, a two-faced person who acts one way with certain people and in another way with other people." There I felt God's love in me. I felt peace in me and burst crying. However, I didn't want anyone to see me then, so I stopped, very reluctantly. This was one of my soft spots, where I was very influenced by my friends. After some time, I managed to get over this too.
I finally stopped concentrating on material things which made my happiness only temporary. I finally found love, true love. This was sensational. Only God could love me as I am and only He could have done all this in my life. He showed His mercy and lovingkindness towards me.
I now go on a regular basis to both Youth Fellowship and Teen Felloship. There too I found people my age who experienced God's love.
The only thing I can say to God is " Thanks a million for changing my life from black to white".
I honestly don't know what I could have done or gone if I didn't have God in my life.
