I don’t often write in my blogs, but this morning I just feel alone, though I know I am not. The past few days have tasked my heart to its limit, though God has given more. I am changed, but unchanged. I am whole and apart. I am lost, but I am found.
I cried only once yesterday, and only for a moment, but today that is all I want to do, but do not be sad for me for the tears that dwell within are not that kind and their is nothing you can do to give me comfort, only the embrace of a Saviour and God can do that. They do not even loss or loneliness, they just say I am a man.
Yesterday afternoon, I did something I have not done in a very long time. I stood in a pulpit and gave a simple message of the life of a little boy, who meant something to many people. Leo was a part of my life and He made me feel important and alive. I know those are selfish things, but can not change what is real and true.
As I sat at my desk this morning I read the words writing yesterday and feel compelled to leave you with this, a message of Hope and Love. It is what Jesus would have me to do:
The first step to salvation is to realize that we are all sinners:
Romans 3:10 (KJV) “As it is written, There is none righteous, no, not one:”
Romans 3:23 (KJV) “For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God;”
Next, you must know that because of sin there must be a price paid:
Romans 6:23 (KJV) “For the wages of sin is death; but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord.”
This price can be paid by you with an eternity in Hell, or you can accept the price that Jesus paid for your sin:
Romans 5:8 (KJV) “But God commendeth his love toward us, in that, while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us. “
To accept Jesus’ payment for your sin simply call on His name and ask Him to forgive your sins and save you:
Romans 10:9-13 (KJV) “That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved. [10] For with the heart man believeth unto righteousness; and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation. [11] For the scripture saith, Whosoever believeth on him shall not be ashamed. [12] For there is no difference between the Jew and the Greek: for the same Lord over all is rich unto all that call upon him. [13] For whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved.”
If you are ready to accept Jesus Christ as your personal Saviour, take time right now to pray, confessing your sin and asking Him to save you.
When you accept Jesus, He is faithful to do what He said He would - He forgives you and saves you. This an eternal life that cannot be lost:
1 John 5:13 (KJV) “These things have I written unto you that believe on the name of the Son of God; that ye may know that ye have eternal life, and that ye may believe on the name of the Son of God. “
If you have read this and come to know Jesus Christ as your Lord and Saviour you are welcomed into the Kingdom of God. If you want to share, email me at me@agagliardijr.com.
