I don't, but if I HAVE to get up I'd like it to be on a summer day when I have nothing to do other than to enjoy the day and sunshine.

Christianity....just a story to believe in?

Posted on Nov 10th, 2008 by lomc18
Convince me of Christianity....

I need someone to make their BEST attempt to convince me of Christianity. I have no answers to where life began, but I have plenty of questions. I want something to believe in, but I have the hardest time seeing Christianity as anything other than something people believe in because it's all they have ever known or because they are afraid not to  due to the fear of hell. I want to believe in something that will guide my life, but I also find it hard to believe Christianity is not just a story people like to believe in because they want to think there is more than this life and are scared to look into anything else. I know there has to be something much bigger than us to have something as complex and amazing as our universe and life and I am very confused as to where it all began and how very minimal our existence is compared to life itself and the entire universe. It's hard to explain, but I just want someone to tell me what made them a Christian and how I can find belief and hope. 

I previously looked into Buddhism and I LOVE the lifestyle it encouraged, kindness to all and our purpose being to better each other and see the light in everyone. It just didn't provide me with any answers as to where it all began....and I know there is no answer, but I'd love to find something I might have a chance of believing in, but not just because everyone else believes in it. 

Please help!

wherever the place before the beginning is. I just started to investigate my beliefs and really dedicate myself to finding something to truly believe in.
