It sounds like you have been baptized, but the changes that you were expecting to come as a result have not happened. Now, you're wondering why your heart hasn't changed and why you don't feel different. Sometimes when we make a major spiritual decision, like baptism, we expect to be completely different people after we have done it. We somehow want to feel more spiritual or sense God's presence in a deeper way. We also tend to think that we won't sin the way that we used to.
