Do you know Jesus? Let me tell you something about my Father. Has anyone died for you? Jesus did. Has anyone loved you so much that he bled, was stabbed, beaten, mocked, hung on a cross between two thieves for you? Yes, Jesus loves you so much that He endured the worst pain and agony any human being could ever face for you and your sins. You are truly loved.
How do I get to know Jesus? Jesus is here waiting for you to accept him within your heart. He wants you to come to realize that you don’t have to be alone in this world, trying to figure out all your problems on your own. He is the your father in heaven. And He is here for you to love you.
Romans 9:10-13 (New International Version) of the Bible states the following:
9That if you confess with your mouth, “Jesus is Lord,” and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved. 10For it is with your heart that you believe and are justified, and it is with your mouth that you confess and are saved. 11As the Scripture says, “Anyone who trusts in him will never be put to shame.”[a] 12For there is no difference between Jew and Gentile—the same Lord is Lord of all and richly blesses all who call on him, 13for, “Everyone who calls on the name of the Lord will be saved.”
Confess today by your mouth out loud, accept Jesus in your heart.
Jesus my father your father also loves you so dearly that he did the ultimate sacrifice for you.
We are so loved. You are so loved. Remember that you are loved and a special person.
We suggest you read a very good book, “The Purpose Driven Life, By Pastor Rick Warren” and The New International Version Bible. Both will help you understand why you are upon this earth and help you get started upon your walk with Christ.
A prayer to say to the Lord:
Lord, thank you for dieing for my sins. Thank you for taking all my junk. Please come into my life and change me. Change me into the person you have chosen me to be. Please forgive me for the actions I have committed before I knew you. Please come into my life and make me whole. Lord, I know that I need you in my life. Please guide me and help me through the trying times ahead. Lord, please surround me with loving Christ followers that will guide me into the direction you want for me life. In Jesus Name Amen
Welcome to the family
The road of a Christ follower is a challenge. Be strong, never give up. Read daily about 2-3 verses at a time, then reflect upon them. Taking the time to engulf your whole mind into God’s breath words are important for you to grow.
