Senti una profunda paz y luego fuerza.-Jane ByrneNo hay nadie tan sucio o tan perdido que Jesucristo no pueda venir y poner tu mundo en su lugar. Tampoco hay nadie tan justo o tan bueno que no necesite a Jesucristo.-JessicaMi tiempo en la iglesia se volvio monotono, con la excepcion de la homilia, y me sabia toda la Misa de memoria. Lo mas alarmante para mi fue que sentia exactamente lo mismo antes de un servicio religioso como despues. No habia emocion en mi fe, solo hacer y asistir a la iglesia una vez a la semana, marcando simplemente mi deber con Dios. Creia que la salvacion, o la entrada al cielo, era algo que podias ganar o lograr, y vivi con esta mentalidad durante 19 años.-MonicaSalvo!!! Lo que significa para mi no termina solo con estas historias. Queremos que experimentes la relacion con Dios como nosotros, asi que al final se incluye un Plan de Salvacion que podria ser el comienzo para ti!
