I became a Christian about seven or eight months ago so I am fairly new and have a lot of questions as you might imagine.  I think I understand what it means to be a Christian, but it seems like every time I hear stories in the Bible and what Christ did for us, I always seem to have a question.  Normal of course, but that’s partly why I go to church; to learn, to grow, to absorb the Holy Spirit, and to meet new people.  Being a Christian to me means being different and being courageous and showing people that living for God is a feeling nothing else can give you.  Personally for me it can be a rush of happiness and excitement all at once.  It’s helping others,  its following His Son, it’s following a path that can only lead to a better life.  Being a Christian is always knowing you have a purpose in life.  That you will never feel alone or left out.  Always someone to pray to,  to love and be loved.  It is truly life changing.

That said…..the thought of Baptism is becoming important and although I honestly don’t know exactly what it means to be baptized (I will find out soon), it is something I am moving closer to.  Although is only lasts a few seconds, the impact lasts a lifetime.
