Essay About Moving To Columbus

587 Words3 Pages

The Bible can mean different things to many different people. It can symbolize hope, forgiveness, and passion. To me, it symbolizes all that and more. To me, the bible symbolizes a new begging, friendship, family, and love. As I have mentioned in earlier post's moving to Columbus has been very hard on me, leaving everything I know, and leaving the most important people in my life, my family. When I arrived in Columbus I felt extremely lost. I had no clue why I went to a school so far away and a school where I hardly fit in. After a few weeks of being in Columbus, a few of my friends invited me to go to church with them. I was weary of going.

On 11/7/16 I truly knew that God had a plan for me. Part of his plan was for me to move to Columbus so I could find Him. I remember we were in the middle of a song, and I just started to ball my eyes out. I had felt this warmth take over me. For the first time in my life, I felt as if I was connected to something bigger than myself. After we were done for the night, I couldn't wait to tell Lisa what had happened. I didn't know it was called being saved, I just knew that something amazing had happened. We spent the rest of my time at college house that night praying, thanking him for his glory, and for finding me when I needed him most. The rest of my night, I spent calling my family and friends and telling them the amazing news.

From that moment on I have been fully devoted to my faith. I try to go to church any chance that I can get. I attended College house, a women's bible study and recently also started attending Second Story which is a youth group aimed at college

The most powerful and profound communal experience that I have had with my faith was during my Confirmation Mass. I had chosen my grandma to be my sponsor and my confirmation name to be Agnes. I chosen the name Agnes because when I was in second grade, I read a story about St. Agnes’s life and martyrdom, and still to this day I have not forgotten that story.
