A little girl had great desire to join the church and the Pastor asked if she
had experienced a change of heart. She answered "Yes."
"Were you a sinner before?"
"Yes."
"Are you a sinner now?"
Again she answered, "Yes."
"Well then, what's the difference?"
After a brief moment of thought she said, "Before I was a converted to Christ, I
was a sinner running after sin; now, I am a sinner running away from sin."
