Thanks Jimmy! Please don't feel like you MUST reply immediately. Your daily chores of looking after yourself and your family need to take priority over this course. A response is still just as valid even after several days. I can sense your passion for this topic and that is admirable. Your comments are always respectful and appreciative. I have no idea what you were like in the past, but you seem like a very nice person now. I'm glad to have had the opportunity to meet you here on this platform.

Thank you very much @happyme. I appreciate that. I’m really thankful to have met you here too. You ask great questions and are always open to hearing different points of view. I’ve really enjoyed engaging in the various discussions with you.

Yes, I have a deep passion for this topic because honestly I can say that this relationship with Jesus has totally transformed who I am to the core. It was because my mum saw the transformation in my life that she too decided to explore this faith. That is why I am so passionate in telling other people about Jesus, because I believe he is the truth and the one who I’ve unknowingly been longing for all my life.

I haven’t had an easy childhood as I have written about in my introduction and mini-memoir series, but God has taught me about love, given me joy and peace which were so foreign to me, and a passion for life I never had in the past. He has enriched my life in so many ways and freed me from many of my fears and destructive behaviors in the past. I’m still a work in progress, but I know I am different now. J

Thanks again for your encouragement and taking the time to listen. J

I'll need to check out those posts when I have more time.

I can imagine your enthusiasm is similar to what many new and some old members of Steemit feel about this platform; it actually becomes addictive and you want the whole world to enjoy the feeling you have.

The important thing is that you seek personal improvement and greater understanding which improves your relationships with everyone.
