It was not very difficult for me to made my Shahadah because Islam believes in all the prophets specially nabi issa which I used to pray as my God as thought in Christianity. I found my inner peace and thought of the proper way to pray, honor and glorify Allah that is the only one true Allah that is worthy of praise and thanksgiving.
