At the moment right before I accepted Christ, I realized, “I am a wretched person, and I need Jesus.” Now, I view myself with the recognition that “Because i know Jesus, i am no longer wretched.” With this there is also the realization that without Christ, I would still be just as filthy and unacceptable before God as I was before I first came to know Christ. In this realization is humility. Every bit of change within me is a direct result of what Christ has done. It is nothing of myself.
My name is Ashley, and I have been a Christian for four years, twelve days. And I still need Jesus. Every day.
