Here it goes....
When I was 12 years old I went to Sunday school and my friends were talking and they were talking about being saved. I read the bible, but I never prayed that prayer and when my grandma asked me if I was saved I would get around the truth. After hearing my friends were saved I went to my grandma's and told her I wanted to get saved. She asked me if God was speaking to me and it was for him. I lied and said yes (I really just wanted to fit in with everyone else) I thought if God forgave us of our sins he would forgive that one. When I was in High School I told my Sunday school teacher I did not think there was a God and that there was no one there. He asked me where this came from and I told him "I don't know".After that I would not go to church and had the same thoughts.We had a lot of new Sunday school teachers and I thought they would not even notice me being gone. Later at church camp I heard this speaker say he was saved twice because the first time he was not really saved. After my friend for over 13 years and I were walking back to the dorms and I asked her if someone could get saved twice and she told me no that you only get saved once. We talked more and one of my teachers there came and wondered what me and my friend were talking about and i told her "Oh nothing" and she said "Is it serious?" I told her nope not at all and my friend goes it is pretty serious and she took us to the bleachers and I told her the story. She told me I should tell the guest speaker and he was watching the basketball game with his son and he left his son and talked to me. I told him the story and he told me from what I was telling him I was not saved and that I could change that if I wanted to and the time was right and I told him it was the right time and I got saved!!
Sorry this was long!
