I believe our lives are the sum total of the choices we make, regardless of whether we are religious or not. My life hasn't changed much, in the sense that I still choose to make good decisions, even if it's hard, or I struggle. The struggles of life will always be before us, whether you believe in a deity or not. It is in how you react to those struggles that makes the difference, as to the quality of life you might lead.
Abandoning Christianity and religion in general, has made me more aware of my own decisions, now, instead of looking for some outside force to rescue me. Not believing in Bible lies anymore, freed me to thinking clearer about a lot of issues. I also stopped letting people treat me like crap, which when I was religious, people for some reason took that as a license to take advantage of me.
So, how has religion made your life better?
