New Christian looking for answers

[TripleP]

Hi, my name is Nick and im new at all this blogging and forum talking, but i decided about a couple months ago that i was missing something in my life...Jesus. Its not like i've never been to church or anything, but when i did go to church i never really thought much about it. I guess you could say that i found it hard to believe is something that i had never actually seen or experienced. Im 20years old right now and over the last couple of years my life has took many, many turns; some of which were for the best and some might have not been the best decisions, but nevertheless i feel as though i am missing something in my life. I want to be a happier person, someone who others can look up to; i guess i just want to make something out of myself. How can i accept jesus in my life? I know this may sound stupid but i don't know what to do. I need help getting this all together. Please feel free to make any suggestion that you feel may help me on my road to find Christ in my life.

Hello and welcome to the forums TripleP!!

Pray to God...
Admit you are a sinner in need of Christ's saving blood. Believe in your heart that Christ rose again and defeated death and give your life to Him. A simple earnest prayer, God will give you the Holy Spirit.

Take time to read God's Word to know Him more, and pray for His guidance in your search to know Him better.

Any questions I'm more than happy to help. God bless you!!

Welcome, I'm new as well. Although sites like this can be helpful, something that I think works well is to also find some christian friends in real life. They can help you through times by walking on Jesus' path with you. And more importantly... what Scott said :D. I'm not an overly experienced christian or anything, but I have felt Jesus... and I know that walking this path is hard, but nothing compares to the greatness that comes out of it.

Hope you enjoy your stay here.

ok, the first thing you need to do is recongnize that your a sinner the Bible says that "All have sinned and fallen short of the Glory of God" (sry don't know the reference) second you need to believe that God can save you from your sins. third you need to pray and ask God to forgive you of this sins you have done and help you to stay on track. Also as your praying ask God to come in your life and be Savior and rule your life!!! After you've done these things i would recommend (not nesesary but very helpful) that you find a good church, attend it as often as possible, buy and read a Bible and most importantly pray to God....he has been, is today, and always will you the best friend you've ever had!!! if you have any questions or anything please feel free to pm me!

Hi TripleP,
You have to gain knowledge in order to accept. So pray and read God's word!
And this is the key:

Pray to God...
Take time to read God's Word to know Him more, and pray for His guidance in your search to know Him better!

Ps 1:2 But his delight is in the law of Jehovah; And on his law doth he meditate day and night. (ASV)

Feel free to PM me if you need any help!
