Jesus is so important in my life, and now after going through confirmation, I know why. Jesus sacrificed himself to save us sinful humans who didn't have a chance because of our free will until Him. I keep messing up, but Jesus is always there to clean up after me no matter what. In return, I try my best to show my thanks by following his teachings everyday and using the gifts God has blessed me with to glorify him instead of myself. I try to make the best decisions I can, try to look at what's inside a person instead of how they look and accept them for what they are instead of excluding them for what they aren't. I also try to be open about my faith in front of others.
It's comforting that Jesus is always there even if I make a bad decision or judge a person. Jesus is always there for me, ready to accept me and everyone who comes to Him. He loves everyone of us unconditionally. In India, I saw people who lived in one room houses that were tiny and struggled every day to feed their families, and still, they had the faith in Jesus and praised his name. With them as my roll models, I try to mold my life around my faith by being more courageous in my witness and praying regularly. With the support of my family in Christ, I want to become more like Jesus everyday.
