He Already Knows What You Need

This is Andrew Palau. Will you take a moment to think about this with me?
Grow in Christ
Do you ever feel like something's missing in your life?

Think about it right now. Maybe something just popped in your head as I asked that question. Or maybe you’re mostly happy except for the rare occasion when you find yourself sleepless, when you're feeling completely worn out. Whatever it is, I want to tell you, there’s someone who knows your deepest needs.

It’s God.

He has a wonderful plan for your life…for your thriving. Let me tell you the Good News:

God loves you!

He is the one and only God, and He rules over all the universe. God is a Spirit; He is all-powerful and loving and kind. "God is love"—and God loves you and wants you to be His child! God is perfect. But we are not perfect.

We have sinned.

Sin is saying or doing or thinking things that are wrong, and our sins separate us from God. "For all have sinned, and fall short of the glory of God." We deserve punishment for our sins—“The wages of sin is death, but the gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord.”

Jesus came.

God sent His Son Jesus Christ into the world so that our sins could be forgiven. Jesus lived a perfect life and He healed and loved people and taught them about God. He was put to death like a common criminal on a cross of wood. When He died, He willingly took the sins of the world—yours and mine—and paid the penalty in our place. "For God so loved the world that He gave His one and only Son, that whoever believes in Him would not perish, but would have everlasting life."

You can accept Jesus and start a relationship with Him today!

The Bible says, "As many as received Him, to them He gave the right to become children of God, even to those who believe on His Name." If you would like to accept Jesus Christ as your Savior and Lord, and turn from your sins and ask God to forgive your sins, you can pray this prayer now and ask Jesus into your life.

Lord Jesus,

I believe you are the Son of God who died to pay the penalty for my sins. I open the door of my heart and ask you to be my Savior and Lord. I ask your forgiveness for all my sins. Please forgive my sins and help me to live for you.

Say "Yes" to Jesus' offer of life and begin your journey of following God.
