Well, I think I have found a church home. I have been to this church several times and I really enjoy it and look forward to going. I have never really looked forward to church before, when i was younger I actually hated going. I have several friends that also attend The Village Church, which is how I found out about it.
I have been struggling so much over the past several years and feeling like I needed to "find myself".....for lack of a better descriptive term. I've read so many books and listened to so many podcasts and lectures...nothing seemed to help. I know that what I have been missing this entire time is a relationship with God. I guess I have always thought I had a relationship with Him but in reality I just knew OF Him. So, I am now working on this. I am relatively new to this and am a bit confused still. I feel like I have wasted so much time NOT having a relationship with God and feel guilty for not putting Him first in my life. I guess I am struggling a little with the emotions that come along with all of this. If anyone has any advice I welcome it!

Shauna, that's awesome. I'm really excited for you as you're entering a new chapter in your life. And I think it will be filled with hope, health and happiness. My only advice is: know that we serve a God of mercy and grace and freedom. You don't have to have everything figured out in your life-- He loves you and will use you right where you are. =)
Shauna,
Oh my gosh! That is the church we are visiting, too! As far as the guilt goes, know that is not from God. He knows the number of hairs on your head and he knew the day that you would come to a relationship with Him...it happened for a reason this way! I felt the same way though when it happened to me though, but I was mostly just excited about getting to know the "love of my life", my Creator....so just be ready for the excitement of what God has in store for you! I hope to see you the next time we go.....we were supposed to go this morning and our car got towed instead....long story, but anyways, hope we run into eachother!
