Thank you for stopping by, as I welcome you and say, "Hello" with a smile. It's my humble privilege, if you didn't know already, to simply introduce you to the One True & Living God! Be it as it may, He's not found in building or in a particular religion per se, but dwells exclusively in the hearts of ordinary people who truly love Him and submit to following wherever He leads according to the will given for their lives. He alone captivates our imagination, as we stand in awe and wonder at the wisdom of His creation called, "Life." He knew you before you were born; Knows every hair on your head, your innermost thoughts, dreams and desires; All the while, loving you unconditionally and wanting only the "Best" for your life always!

Many will mock, turn away and flat out say this is complete foolishness either out of total ignorance or arrogant denial. In the end though, one fact will always remain regardless of the all vitriol, hyperbole and or assumptions is the decision each of us makes concerning God, His only Son, Jesus and the eternal sacrifice paid for upon the cross to save us forever...In the beginning, Adam & Eve lived in perfection on Earth (The Garden of Eden). They had everything one desires with one added exception, not to eat of the fruit from a particular tree.  They eventually did (Like we all would when told not to do something, right?!).

This blatant disobedience/sin caused their banishment and separation putting a barrier between God and humanity from that point going forward. Having a plan from before the beginning though, God knew He was going to send His only Son, Jesus Christ (God in human form) to enter our world and save it by sacrificing himself to atone for that sin barrier caused by Adam & Eve. So, He was born; Walked among us showing God's true character, love and understanding and then ultimately died to save us all at the tender age of 33. (There is no greater love than to give your life for someone else!) Not only did He accomplish this miraculous feat, but in the process conquered death as well when He arose from the dead by the power of the Holy Spirit on the third day. This is every believer's blessed future, Jesus being the First, we too shall follow when we pass from this life into eternity and join Him forever in Heaven..."What does all this mean", you might ask? The answer, EVERYTHING!

You see, even though your sins have been atoned for and eternal life is yours for the asking, it is very important that you understand this crucial point; "You must confess in a heartfelt prayer and acknowledge to God/Jesus that you in fact want to be forgiven & saved." It is Not automatic! A reservation, if you will, for your appointment as you pass from this life into eternity and enter the Kingdom of Heaven as a child of The Most High God! That said, I would like to take the opportunity to lead you in a simple heartfelt prayer that can be spoken right there where you are at this very moment. (Remember, It's between You & God alone and there's no fooling Him, so you must be honest and mean it completely!) Pray - "Dear Jesus, thank you for dying on the cross for me.

Please forgive me now of all my sins and wash me clean; Come now and live within my heart and save me from this day going forward as I give you my whole life. I love you and thank you again, as I'm now yours forever! Amen... That's It, it's finished - Hallelujah!!! There's nothing more that needs to be done, as everything has already been taken care of by Jesus himself and you can now know for sure that YOU in fact are His child and have eternal life. You may want sometime in the future to be baptized, as a symbolic gesture showing your allegiance.

This is not a must requirement, as the prayer was the key that made the difference. Know that I'm happy for you and it is stated that even the angels in Heaven rejoice over one being saved to the Kingdom. Smile, take a bow or curtsy and know they are singing praises right now for YOU!!! It is true..."I'm saved", now what? Your journey has only just begun and you must remember it's not a quick race, but rather a long, slow walk throughout life with one difference now. At some point, you will be shown a purpose for your life. (A plan or will.) This literally will transform your life as you know it. Everything will change from the way you think, act and approach daily life.

Instead of selfish tendencies like you had before, you'll find in its place acts of kindness and compassion. (Selflessness.) All characteristics of and from God! A first step towards this is to open and read a Bible. If you don't have one or yours is antiquated, I suggest a study Bible. (I use the Life Application Study - New Living Translation.) By reading a little everyday, you will see now that wherever you are reading, He will speak to you through His Word. It literally comes alive and is one of the main ways He teaches and speaks to your heart as you learn to walk with Him on a daily basis.

Next, pray often whenever and wherever you are, as He hears you clearly no matter where you are. I cannot emphasize how important prayer is; You must utilize this, as it's literally your lifeline to Heaven/God. He knows, but wants to hear from you and waits for you to ask Him before He answers. (Remember, He's a gentleman). When you pray, just be open and honest knowing He already understands what you are asking even before you ask it. Are you noticing that this is far from religion and more like a relationship?!

This is how it's truly supposed to be, not full of dogma, deeds, symbols, repetition etc. Hold this dear to your heart, as many really cannot or will not understand this by way of indoctrination, intolerance and ignorance. Lastly, find a good church that you can find new friends that believe the way you do and a pastor that teaches from the Bible directly while not deviating or speaking in tangents. If this is uncomfortable for you, that's ok, simply do a search for (In Touch) and listen to one of the best pastor's that God clearly speaks through on a weekly basis.

His name is Dr. Charles Stanley and he is on TV.. all over the country (USA) and you can listen either online or at home. Tune in, he's worth it...For those of you who already believers and are here because of curiosity etc. I encourage you to strengthen your faith and ask the Lord for guidance and direction for your life. He has a purpose for all of us and we are called to faithfully move His Kingdom forward, as the hands of time are drawing ever nearer for His return...
