Jesus Cares
What still amazes us is that Jesus, God in the flesh, the Creator of everything we see, also loves and cares for us individually! Too often in life because of our mistakes, failures, and sins, we are convinced that God couldn’t possibly love us. So, we live our lives far away from God, removing ourselves from the love that He longs to pour into our lives. We end up trying to “be good” as best we can and hope that our “good stuff” will outweigh our “bad stuff,” and that maybe God will let us sneak into heaven. But the truth is that no amount of self-improvement programs or trying harder will ever be able to bridge the chasm between us and God that sin has created.
Jesus is the bridge that helps us find our way back into God’s love! The Bible also teaches us that when we decide to follow and give our lives to Jesus, that there is nothing in all of creation that can separate us from the Love of God that is in Christ Jesus our Lord!
A verse in the Bible you’ve probably heard that describes the love God has for you, and shares how Jesus has done everything possible to make sure you can experience that love is:
“For this is how God loved the world: He gave his one and only Son, so that everyone who believes in him will not perish but have eternal life. God sent his Son into the world not to judge the world, but to save the world through him." (John 3:16-17)

A Fresh Start
When we realize that we have not been living the way God designed us to live, there is some good news. Jesus offers us something we desperately need… what do we need? A fresh start. If you could have a “do-over” what would you do differently?
The most spiritual thing you will ever do is make a choice. The choices you make today will determine the person that you will become! When you choose Jesus, you will make the most important decision in life, one that will give you a clean slate, a fresh start.
The bible tells us that:
“If you declare with your mouth, “Jesus is Lord,” and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved.” (Romans 10:9)
This decision unleashes God’s salvation on and in you, and adopts you into His family where He continues to forgive you and offer new beginnings each day.
Salvation is experiencing God’s heavenly reality today and into eternity. Once you decide to follow Jesus, nothing can take that away. We don’t always make the right choices, but every time we confess what we did wrong, we receive God’s forgiveness and a fresh start!
If you’re not sure whether you are right with God or that you need Jesus in your life, you can make the decision to follow Jesus today.
Choose to follow Him right now by praying a prayer of surrender to Jesus.
