​Things That Happen When You Put God at The Center of Your Life
Answers in Genesis

Through good and bad, rocky and smooth, there is only one person I know will get me through everything. He has saved me and made me the woman I am. My life changed when I opened my life up to Him, and here’s how.

You start to see life in a different way.

The little things in life become more beautiful and inspiring. We learn to be more appreciative and understanding of the things and people around us. Life is different, it’s hard to explain, but it’s happier.

The good times are that much better.

When good things happen to us, the first thing we does thank God for His help and guidance. We know that without Him none of this is possible and we are thankful for all He has provided to us.

And the bad times aren’t that bad.

When we put God in the center of our lives we stop questioning why bad things are happening to us and start looking at the bad things as stepping stones to the good. You pray that the bad times will pass and thank God for all the things he’s doing to make you stronger and smarter.

The questions change.

We stop questioning “why did this happen to me,” and start asking “how is this going to shape me into the person I’m meant to be." The questions sound similar, depending on how you ask them, but the meaning is completely different.

When God is at the center of your life, a lot will change. All of it for the good. I know personally, my life would be completely different if I hadn’t opened my life and heart up to the Lord and started living the way he intended me to.

I love the entire year. Well, for the most part. I'm not a big fan of Winter, but even then, every month has something that's pretty great. November? Thanksgiving. December? Winter Holidays. January? New Year's. February? Valentine's and Single Awareness Day. May? Existential dread during finals. But for me, March has always been my favorite month of the year, and for good reason.
