Day 26: Your religious beliefs
Saturday, June 18, 2011 @ 11:28 AM

Born and raised as a Christian. My actions might say other wise, but every time I'm at fault for someone's disappointment or when I'm aware that I've committed something terrible, I find myself reaching out to God. When I feel the lowest of the lows, absolutely hopeless; when not even one person can stop me from crying or guide me out of the excruciating pain that I'm experiencing, I find myself calling his name. He's always there, and it's as if I can feel his presence. He's saved me countless times. He's pulled me out of a path that could've led me to death. He's turned my life around when I would start going the opposite direction from what he's planned. He took me back with open arms even after I've turned my back on him. His words are the only thing that gives me hope, lightens my day and brightens up my dull heart when I feel lifeless. He's the one that's preventing me from giving up when things seem too difficult to overcome. Committing myself into something has never felt so safe. I stand where I am today thanks to the love, hope, and guidance he provides. He has a plan for me and as long as I stay strong in faith, happiness awaits.
