This week’s story has highlighted the amazing salvation of God in the midst of loss and hardship. If you missed out on part one, go to this link now: Given the Time.
“But in your hearts set apart Christ as Lord. Always be prepared to give an answer to everyone who asks you to give the reason for the hope that you have. But do this with gentleness and respect….” I Peter 3:15
As an evangelist my favorite thing to do in this world is to share the love of Christ with others. As I promised earlier, if you have never invited Jesus into your life, that you would have that opportunity. Please say this prayer and you too can become a part of God’s family just as I did when I was eleven. You can pray out loud, or silently, God will hear you either way.
Dear Lord Jesus,
I do believe You are the Son of God and that You died on the cross to pay the penalty for my sin. Please come into my life, forgive my sin and make me a member of Your family. I now turn from going my own way. I want You to be the center of my life. Thank You for Your gift of eternal life and for your Holy Spirit, who has now come to live in me. I ask this in Your name. Amen
If you have prayed this prayer with me, let me be the second one to welcome you to the family of God because He is the first, and may you experience God through His Son Jesus from this day forward. May I suggest that you tell someone that you invited Jesus into your life. This is critical because as a new member of God’s family you will benefit greatly from the love and support from other Christians. It is very important to find a church where Jesus Christ is the Head of the church, and they are teaching good sound biblical doctrine. Ask a family member or friend to help you out in this important matter.
Thank you for allowing me to share my story and my faith in Jesus Christ with you this past week.
