The Christian life has not been tried and left wanting but has been found difficult and left untried."

- GK Chesterton

Have you tried it yet?

No?
  Well I encourage you to do so. I especially encourage those of you who feel the yearning to be a part of something bigger than yourself, or those of you who desire more than anything to be loved unconditionally, or those of you who have nowhere else to turn and no one left to turn to. I encourage to give the Christian life a try. I did and it was the best decision of my life. 
  I made the decision to follow Christ almost two years ago at the age of 15. That may seem like a young age to feel like my life had fallen apart, but the truth is my life had not yet fallen completely apart. I had tried a life away from God and I knew in my heart that if I continued on the path I was on, my life today would have been completely different. 

"MAY YOUR CHOICES

 REFLECT YOUR HOPES,

     NOT YOUR FEARS."

 -Nelson Mandela

  I gave Christ a try, and just like a child having a taste of ice cream, I fell in love. Because I gave Christianity a try I became a part of something bigger than myself, I no longer have to desire for an unconditional love, and I always have somewhere and someone to turn to whenever the everyday stresses of life become to much to bear. 
  I can't write all this and not say that it won't be difficult, but in hindsight, anything that is challenging is worth something. So again I encourage you to give the Christian life a try. "[It] has not been tried and left wanting, but has been found difficult and left untried." 

Acts 17:27-28 (NIV) "[27] God did this so that they would seek him and perhaps reach out for him and find him, though he is not far from anyone of us. [28] For in him we live and move and have our being. As some of your own poets have said, 'We are his offspring.'"
