As a new convert, it felt unusual. I spent 10 minutes in a silent room. I asked forgiveness, and asked for the strength to be a good Christian today.

I felt a difference. I have been calm, happy, overcome a few difficulties without stress. Spoke to people with more kindness than usual.

It is a good way to start a day

@Ian74 Good to know of your prayer life, indeed.

Romans 8 tells us that it is the Holy Spirit Who causes the believer to cry Abba, Father. It's such a great chapter, unforgettable and assuring....

This is the way out of darkness--that darkness that the world does not even acknowledge until it hits them over the head.

You are on the right track. Great job!

Ahhh, how wonderful! What a blessing to read! Rejoicing with the angels for God's saving work in you, @Ian74. :)

Luke 15:4-10
[4]What man of you, having an hundred sheep, if he lose one of them, doth not leave the ninety and nine in the wilderness, and go after that which is lost, until he find it?
[5]And when he hath found it, he layeth it on his shoulders, rejoicing.
[6]And when he cometh home, he calleth together his friends and neighbours, saying unto them, Rejoice with me; for I have found my sheep which was lost.
[7]I say unto you, that likewise joy shall be in heaven over one sinner that repenteth, more than over ninety and nine just persons, which need no repentance.
[8]Either what woman having ten pieces of silver, if she lose one piece, doth not light a candle, and sweep the house, and seek diligently till she find it?
[9]And when she hath found it, she calleth her friends and her neighbours together, saying, Rejoice with me; for I have found the piece which I had lost.
[10]Likewise, I say unto you, there is joy in the presence of the angels of God over one sinner that repenteth.
