What's the difference

Prove by the way you live that you have repented of your sins & turned to God (Matt. 3:8 NLT)

When you make the choice to accept Jesus Christ as your Lord & Savior, there needs to be more than just words that you speak.  As a Christian, there should be a change in your life.  You do not suddenly become perfect & life does not suddenly become perfect.  What should happen though is your life should become Christ centered.  Your life should be more about Him & less about you.  You should be slow to anger & quick to forgive.  You should look for ways to serve others.  You should seek to know Christ above all else.  Your life isn't about doing a bunch of works but you do the work because of your love for Christ.  You begin to trust in God & not in your own ability.  As you do this, He makes your crooked places straight, working out the impossible, & making a way where there is no way.  The change in your life should be daily as we grow in our relationship with Christ.  So today, has your life changed since coming to know Christ.  Can others tell?
