Changed... a little at a time.

Believe it or not...I used to be a VERY confrontational, negative and argumentative person. I always had to be right and would get "in your face" in a not so nice way if you didn't agree with me. I was "all about me" and never did anything nice for anyone if it was inconvenient.

My change started about 7 years ago when I became more active and got involved at Grace Community Church. I started teaching 2nd and 3rd graders and my heart started to change. As the years have gone by, my family tells me that I'm totally different. I don't confront people like I used to. I was the type to always complain at a restaurant. Not any more. I see people differently now and I know it's a God-thing. I started getting "thank you" cards in the mail from people. After awhile, I noticed I was getting quite a stack of them, without even trying. It was a way for me to measure how much my life has changed.

I'm not very good at words, but my heart has surely changed since I started giving more to God. It happened over time and naturally, without me even really thinking about it.

Not a very exciting story, but for me it's a HUGE life change.
