Personal Narrative Essay: The Most Significant Night Of My Life

It was the most significant night of my life. I remember it like it was yesterday. It happened on a night during the summer before freshman year. My parents and I didn’t always get along well. There was a lot of tension in my family early on. My parents got married December 21, 1998 and I was born July 7, 1999. I never really thought much about it because it seemed normal. A year earlier I found out that I had been conceived before my parents were married. One night the thought just popped into my mind and I realized that it wasn’t 9 months from the time my parents got married to the time when I was born; it was only 7 months.

Because of that moment I know that I am loved, I am beautiful, I am a child of God, and I am wanted and I have worth and value and I am enough. Jesus will never leave us nor forsake us.

There is nothing that I can do that will cause God to love me any less. I also have a deeper connection and relationship with God now that I didn’t have before. I grew up in church and my parents were heavily involved with the youth ministry but I just never really made any connections. After this moment something clicked and I finally got it. Jesus loves me and He is pursuing me and wants a relationship with me. This is when I decided I really wanted to live my life for God and I stepped in to a deeper relationship with Him. I said, “Jesus I am all yours. I am putting my life in the palm of your hands.” Now God is at the center of my life and everything I do flows from the Holy Spirit who is in
