I was listening to my zune on shuffle a little bit ago and "The Moment of Truth" by Matthew West came up. I know the song is not particularly about this, but it just made me think back to my "Moment of Truth". Not the moment I accepted Jesus Christ, but the moment when I doubted Him and came back. To me that is a big moment because Satan seduced me with this world and the things in it. Made me doubt the existence of my savior and I am sure broke my Lords heart. But I came back to him. And to me, that moment is the moment that I knew Christ would then on be more than just my God, but the very cornerstone of my life.
I remember it was so tough. God had been a huge part of my life and then one day it was like I lost a part of me. I questioned for about a month and I have to say that it was one of the worst months of my life--if not THE worst. I felt so lost, so confused. In the end I turned back to God because I realized that if all there is to this world is my own self, then living was pretty stupid. May sound like a dumb reason, but that was my conclusion :P. Since then I have continued to grow in Christ so much. I am actually glad that I got my phase of doubting out of the way when I was younger. So many people do not doubt until college and then they are surrounded by the world and Satan sometimes wins much more easily. I can't say that I will never doubt again, but by the grace of God I hope not to.
I am not sure where you are in life, or even if you are a Christian. But I hope that wherever you are in life that you find the hope and love of Christ. He is so faithful and loving even through the storms of life. I don't see how anyone can bear to live without knowing that no matter what happens they will have God to fall back on. He will always be there for us, no matter what :).
