My Time With Jesus Tuesday

Life Is A Journey

Genesis 2:7, And the Lord God formed man of the dust of the ground and breathe into his nostrils the breath of life and man became a living being.

For just a few minutes let’s look at life as a journey home. Imagine you wake up in a strange place and have no remembrance of anything before now. You feel confused because your heart tells you your home is somewhere else, but you don’t know where that is.

There are so many people out there and they all have their own opinions of where home is and how to get there. You realize they all can’t be right, so you must figure it out.

The general opinion is the world is it. The other opinion is a place called Heaven. People look at the Heaven idea as a place where everyone goes when they die. Others feel you must earn your way, but they don’t know how much is enough. And of course, you have those who feel when you die it’s all over.

At this point how can all of them be right? So, you say to yourself, how can evil people end up in the same place as good people? That’s not fair!

Doing work to get to Heaven is a problem too. How much, what kind of work, or how long? People do not all die at the same age, so how does that work? It doesn’t.

Now you must use your brain. The creator of the universe should have the answer. How do you find him? To start, ask yourself some questions.

Which God always was? How does that God provide a real way to Heaven? What must I do? Which God provides specific instructions?

John 1: 1-3, in the beginning was the word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. He was in the beginning with God. All things were made through Him, and without Him nothing was made that was made.

John 3:16, for God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have everlasting life.

Acts 4:12, nor is there salvation in any other, for there is no other name under Heaven given among men by which we must be saved.

Ephesians 2:8-9, for by Grace you have been saved through faith and that not of yourselves it is the gift of God not of works, lest anyone should boast.

In these verses, all these questions are answered. If we believe in the Lord Jesus Christ, that He suffered on the cross, died, was buried, and rose again, in order for us to be saved, all we have to do then is repent.

God bless you and your family. Praise The Lord!

Remember Jesus loves you.

The Prayer of Salvation.

My Lord Jesus Christ, I thank you for what you did on the cross for me. Your blood washed away all my sins, by your stripes I was healed, your death and Resurrection brought me salvation. Please forgive my sins and come into my heart as my personal savior. Amen. 

Praise The Lord!
