It has been said that religion is man trying to make his way to God, but the Gospel of Jesus Christ is God making his way to man.  Perhaps you're wondering the same?  Perhaps you're asking: Why can't I find peace in my life?  Why do I have this nagging feeling in my heart that tells me I need to find THE answer? 

The Bible says, “God so loved the world that He gave His one and only Son, [Jesus Christ], that whoever believes in Him shall not perish, but have eternal life” (John 3:16).

Jesus said, “I came that they may have life and have it abundantly” — a complete life full of purpose (John 10:10).

Haven't you ever looked at the Universe and wondered: This can't be all.  My life is meant for more than just existing.

God made you to love you.  He even told us so: “I have loved you with an everlasting love; I have drawn you with unfailing kindness." (Jeremiah 31:3)

​So why is it so hard to "feel" His love? 

We have all done, thought, or said bad things, which the Bible calls "sin." These are just the symptoms of the problem. We sin because we are sinners, and we choose to do it. We were born into this cycle, and it's the reason why even the nicest people in the world can make the dumbest choices. According to the Bible, "All have sinned and fall short of the glory of God" (Romans 3:23). The consequence of sin is death in every sense, and it's the cause of so much pain and suffering in the world because sinners experience spiritual separation from God (Romans 6:23).

But here's the good news:

Jesus died in our place so we could have a relationship with God and be with Him forever.  The Bible tells us that “God demonstrates His own love toward us, in that while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us” (Romans 5:8).

But it didn’t end with His death on the cross.  He rose again and still lives!

“Christ died for our sins. … He was buried. … He was raised on the third day, according to the Scriptures” (1 Corinthians 15:3-4).

Jesus is the only way to God. Jesus said, “I am the way, and the truth, and the life; no one comes to the Father, but through Me” (John 14:6).

We can’t earn salvation; we are saved by God’s grace when we have faith in His Son, Jesus Christ.

God put it this way: "Come now, let us reason together, says the Lord: though your sins are like scarlet, they shall be as white as snow; though they are red like crimson they shall become like wool." (Isaiah 1:18)
All you have to do is admit with God that you are a sinner, that Christ died for your sins, and ask His forgiveness. Then turn from your sins — that’s called repentance - and follow Jesus Christ as his disciple.  

Jesus Christ knows you and loves you.  He told us: "Here I am! I stand at the door and knock. If anyone hears my voice and opens the door, I will come in and eat with that person, and they with me."  (Revelation 3:20)

Are you ready to do business with God?  Are you ready to give up a life you that doesn't work in exchange for a life that can't lose?  

May we suggest establshing that connection with God by praying the prayer below:
