 And that night, for the first time, I understood that God cared about me, that he sent his son, Jesus, who was fully God and fully man, to die upon a cross to pay for my sin, and that I could turn from my sin and receive a free gift, and literally, the Spirit of God would enter my human body and begin a transformation that's called eternal life, that sets you on a new course and brings peace and fills that emptiness in your heart and life.
