In our devotional on the last page, I read it this morning, and I wanted to share some thoughts about why people need Jesus in their life.
1. We need Jesus because we all have a PAST. Every single one of us have things in our past that we would love to change. We have all sinned, messed up, live with regrets, and we cannot go back and change any of it. But Jesus can go back. (Hebrews 13:8) Jesus can walk into those places of failure, hurt, sin, and wipe the slate clean in our lives, and give us a new beginning. Praise the Lord!
2. We need Jesus because we all need a FRIEND. Jesus knows the real us, the parts of us that we keep from everyone else, and He still loves us! Jesus believes the best about us, and what a friend we have in Jesus. Someone defined a fried as - "A friend is someone who walks into your life when the world walks out of your life."
3. We need Jesus because He holds the FUTURE! What can we put our trust in today? What things are trustworthy in this world today? Only Jesus can keep us safe and secure in this very insecure world. God's promise is "For I know the plans I have for you.... plans for good and not for evil, to give you a future and a hope." (Jeremiah 29: 11-12)
That is why people need Jesus today!!!
Invite someone to come to our Revival meetings this week!
