did you learn from the experience? On the day of April 27, 2014, Jesus has walked into my soul. Before I surrendered my entire life to Jesus, I grew up catholic with no understanding about god. Without experiencing any wisdom or faith through elementary school until the middle of high school about my own belief made me believe I failed as an individual. The unknowing about God had me go the wrong direction in life. The emptiness and confusion left me questioning myself if there is a god. Growing up without faith or discovery of god compels me to recognize how life is fragile and important. My parents always forced me to go to a catholic church every Saturday, but it was leading me into wrongdoings because I never understand. Years later,

I started to imagine thoughts like, "What if I choke on the holy water and drown while they 're dunking my head?" or "What if I urinate in the water?" Eventually, my sister calmed me down because I was not going to be baptized alone. My sister was going to be in the holy tub with me to make the day memorable for everyone. Within seconds later, we decided that my sister gets dunked first and then me afterward because she always goes first for everything we do together. When it was my turn, I kneeled inside the lukewarm water and waited patiently until the prayer was given to me. Thoughts began to circulate my brain again and before I know it, the holy water splashed onto my face as I went under. I was in full of exhilaration and at ease from God awakening me to be in his presence. I knew this was going to be a new chapter in my life with God helping myself to become a humble and righteous person. As before, my negative way of thinking caused me to reflect on how inconsiderate I was treating people with no respect and acting on poor life threatening decisions. My hostility within myself affected who I was as a person, which I desperately needed to transform. I could not manage all the critical energy that was brought out of me. God is the only way to improve my problems I was dealing with at the time. He brought me love, comfort, and trust which greatly impacted my conception of him. It was …show more content…
From the beginning of going to church, I was familiar with all the kids already so it gave me a good start to get to know each one. Every Sunday I teach the kids new lessons and prayers so they can apply it to their daily lives. It is very eventful teaching the kids because each one of them is engaged and they actually want to learn who Jesus is all about. Some kids know a great deal of intelligence at a very young age. I have a class of about 10-15 students with distinct personas. I can see they 're growing each week by learning different bible verses and lessons being taught to them. By having an older figure teaching them who Jesus is and does for them is a big step of becoming closer with god. Starting at a younger age makes an influential effect of grasping the aspect of god. Little kids tend to believe about anything, which makes it easier to get their attention. Not all students understand what I am informing them about. Some of my students tend to drift off to space and choose to not listen which makes me upset because they remind me of myself before I got saved. It 's my responsibility to take account for their actions. All I aspire, my children is to attain success, be thankful, and know what god has in store for them. I 've grown so attached to each one of them now; it 's hard to see them fall apart. As I was developing as a kid, I rarely
