(continued)
People had told me the differences between heaven and hell, and I was saved because heaven sounded better. I now realize that I worship God and desire an ever growing relationship with him because he created me. It would be so stubborn and horrible of me to not acknowledge the talents he gave me, and the breath he continues to give me every day. Why would I want to worship and live for anyone other than who created me AND all of the wonderful things we have today? To sum it all up - Jon helped me answer my own questions and realize why it is truly important to have a close relationship with God. He also helped me realize that I will not always be on a mountain top, but that there will be many valleys. Even through those valleys, when everything earthly had failed, God never will. That is why I have decided to accept Him into my heart, and live for Him - and only Him.
