This past month I've been dealing with the question, "how could someone not believe in Christ." But then I remember I used to be there. 

Romans 1:18-32 talks about the wrath against mankind for not having hope in god and putting their desires in this world.
Before I was saved, my heart was invested in this world. Now the thought of once having hope in this world disgusts me. I'm not perfect, but I'm better because of Christ. The desires I used to crave (alcohol, being popular, wealth) don't appeal to me any longer. Instead I want to live a full life serving god, and helping others fall in love with Christ.
The other day I was scrolling through Facebook while I came across a status of a friend from high school, it said "how did my life get so f*****? I just want to fall into a pit and die." This is literally the same thing that used to go through my head, that is until I had a relationship with Christ.
You cannot experience true joy without The Lord. It's like the verse "Jesus Christ is the same yesterday today and forever." Hebrews 13:8 the reason I say that is because no man/woman will be 100% all the time, no job, no car, nor money, alcohol, sex, drugs, no nothing will be 100% like Christ. Christ never changes. Christ never leaves. Christ has helped me heal. And when I see people post statuses about having no hope for life, or talking about it in person my heart aches. Just have a relationship with The Lord, then life will be so different.
His love stretches to the skies.
