My Testimony

From a young age I had always wondered about what was going to happen to me after I died. I had grown up in church and had a knowledge of who God was but I was still scared of what would happen to me when I died. One night, I was laying in bed and got really scared because I was thinking about this. Finally I came downstairs to my  parents and my mom explained to me what would happen if I died. She told me that I would be separated from God forever. Not only that, but I would go to a place where I would be tortured and tormented forever. I obviously did not want to experience that torture. The alternative of that was to believe that Jesus is God's son and that he died on the cross so that I did not have to go through that torture. It was at this time that I decided to believe that Jesus died for me and that I wanted to live for him and spend eternity with him in a place called Heaven. Here I would forever be in the presence of God and be able to worship Him forever.
