Spring Break Stuff Pt.3

For this installment I am going to share with you, my faith. I am a Christian. I go to North Point Community Church and accepted Jesus Christ as as the son of God and Holy Savior last summer. I went to a teen church called Xtreme, (now named Transit) and my small group and I went on an anual 6th grade trip called Bootcamp. There, we stayed on a campsite complete with wooden cabins and a messhall. On Friday and Saturday night, there were huge concerts. There were a few songs sung in that style every day in church, but this was 100% bigger. The Friday concert was the most special to me. That night I was with two of my friends, Chase and David. We were standing in the middle of the room far from the stage. Eventualy, Chase and David fell asleep on the floor and people made a circle around us for the two to have space to sleep. At one point, a song was playing called "Our God is Greater" I held my arms up to be respectfull and blend in with the crowd. In the middle of the song, I started crying and realised that Jesus was my savior. I sobbed through the whole song, and after, I felt reborn. When the song ended, I woke my friends up and joined my group to go back to the cabin. The next night, I rushed in to get in the front row right smack dap in front of the stage. That trip really changed me and made me realize that being a Christian is more about just going to Church. So, I encourage you, if you have a religion, whether it being Judism to Buhdism, or Christianity to Hinduism, to just go out and do the best you can at being the best Hindu, best Jew, best anything you can be. Even if you don't have a religion, it's okay for you to speak your mind. You can protest to people, and tell them there is no God, if that is what you belive. All I'm saying is, stick with what you belive, never let go, and don't change unless it's YOUR choice.
