I used to think I was a Christian because my family was and I was raised in a Baptist household. I thought everybody was a Christian because everybody went to church back then. But, when I was 46 years old, I was born again and WOW, what a difference Jesus made in my life.! I've continued to grow and understand more and am constantly amazed by God and His Word. It's weird to me that it took all these years to finally receive His gift of grace and love. To God be all the glory! Amen!
