Life changing decisions

Three months ago I decided to become a Christian. Many people are against that and that's fine, I'm not here to judge anyone. I just want to share my story. For many years I wasn't a believer in God and I thought Christianity was just a way for religious leaders to control people. I was so wrong. Being a Christian introduced me to the most wonderful people I've ever met in my entire life. I'm not talking about the, go to church on Sunday and then go talk behind people's back type Christians, I'm talking about genuine, loving,honest,make you feel like family, true, honest whether you like it or not Christians. Before I became a Christian I was living a horrible life and always searching for happiness in the wrong things and always coming out more miserable and disappointed than I was to begin with. I was one of those people that would call people "Holy roller" "Bible thumper" and all the typical idiotic names I could think of. I am proud to be called those names now. I can't put into words how good it feels to be a christian. It's honestly something you have to truly do for yourself to know how good it is. If you think you've tried it and didn't feel that feeling then you haven't truly became a Christian. I used to be that person also, go to church on Sunday and never really expecting anything or changing anything in my life so I was getting what I was giving, which was basically nothing. Christians are viewed by many as rude, judgemental,fake,believers of fairy tales etc. I know I had those same thoughts about Christians before truly living on the other side. I'm not on here trying to "convert" anyone. I am just simply wanting to share my story because the happiness I feel inside is so awesome and I think everyone deserves to feel it. I've read a lot of comments online about how Christians are "weak". I won't ever understand that because as Christians we are commanded to love and be kind to everyone even people that are rude and hateful. That takes strength to do. Anybody can retaliate and throw harsh words around, that's the easy part. True strength is when someone is cursing you or beating you up and you can still look them in the eye and say, "I forgive you." Not many people are able to do that. Christians are commanded to do it, they don't have a choice. Well they do but the wrong choice ends with an even worse punishment. Anyway as I said I'm not trying to tell anyone what to believe I am simply sharing my story. The moral of my story is, Spread the love and make this world a better place. Goodnight. For anyone that wants my reason for being a Christian it's because God gave his only son Jesus to die for me and I think if the world loved each other enough to give of themselves, There would be a lot less hate. Spread the love and let's make this world a great place for the future generations to come regardless of your belief. We are all human living on this planet with one life. Let's make it worth living.
