Did
I give you a "Thank You" card? It is because I care where
you are going to live for eternity. I'm not asking you to be Baptist,
Catholic, Methodist, Presbyterian or any other manmade religion. Jesus
did not come to start a religion nor is He the head of any religion.
Please read on.
We work hard to take that
two week vacation or just look for Friday to get the weekend off.
Many think that if they could just win life's lottery they would
be happy. We look in all kinds of places, but any lasting happiness
seems to escape like a vapor.
I have found that lasting joy
and happiness can only come through Jesus Christ. Jesus said
"I am come that they might have life,
and that they might have it more abundantly." (John 10:10)
"Happy
is the man that findeth wisdom, and the man that getteth understanding"
(Prov 3:13). God's word, the Bible, is wisdom.
"Whom
having not seen (Jesus), ye love; in whom, though now ye see him
not, yet believing, ye rejoice with joy unspeakable and full of
glory:" (1 Peter 1:8)
In the garden of Eden, man
(and woman) fell from the wonderful position they had with God and
brought unhappiness (sin) into the world. It is Jesus Christ's death
on the cross and resurrection that can restore our relationship
with God and bring us the peace and happiness we desire. God offers
this life as a free gift by trusting in His Son Jesus who bought
and paid for this gift of eternal life.
This is not religion. We all
see what the "religions" of the world has to offer. I
see no peace in these religions. This is trusting Jesus, as you
would trust an airplane to hold you up . When I trusted Jesus Christ
as my Savior, my life took a whole new direction. Jesus didn't promise
me a life of ease, but he did promise me His Love, Joy and Peace.
That I have and you can have it too. After almost 40 years of following
Jesus, I can trust Him.
You can have this gift today,
´"And this is the record, that
God hath given to us eternal life, and this life is in his Son."
(1 John 5:11). You can trust
Him today.
