I recently embraced Jesus as my Lord and my Savior. It has brought peace and joy to my life. Suddenly, all my troubles and worries have melted away and have been replaced by an overwhelming awareness that God loves all of us so we have nothing to worry about.
It's not the religion but our need to find answers When one gets older material possessions are not as important & one has time think about the meaning of life. Many turn to religion for answers.
