Many stories begin with, "where shall I start"? This is how I would like to start mine. Where shall I start? How did I find myself in Discovering Christ gatherings? It's really beautiful actually. I found myself in a scary place in my life. Debilitating grief of many loved ones, hopeless of helping myself or others, lonely even though I have a family. Family struggles ... I could continue on with more negative things that were happening all around me, I was very scared.
I know now that Jesus called me and put me exactly where I needed to be! With a wonderful group of people in Discovering Christ. I have tried a few different avenues to help myself and my loved ones, but nothing holds a candle to the experience I received in Discovering Christ. When I first started, I was a bit reserved, but as the weeks went by I found myself looking forward to our meetings with this group. They became my spiritual family. You see, not only did this group help me with everything I was facing, but I found serenity and peace during our discussions like I've never felt before, and a loving, close relationship with Jesus Christ.
The beautiful thing about my story is, that Jesus led me to this group, and little did I know he was protecting me and surrounding me with so much love! As I look back and unfold my story, Jesus is truly amazing! He worked with me, through me, and around me. His work is beautiful! Discovering Christ was nothing less than life-changing. I am forever grateful for the opportunity to participate in something so beautiful. I love my faith, and I have Jesus to thank for that!
