Testimonies

The Good Lord laid what I'm about to write on my heart and for a few days I just let it sit...but today I feel like it is something that someone needs to read and hear...It is pretty lengthy and I will understand if you don't want to read it all the way to the end...but I pray you will...So first off I want to say "I am a Born Again Christian" I have given my heart and soul to Jesus. I've asked for forgiveness of my sins. I've asked Jesus into my life and I've Not Been the Same since that precious day. But I have not always been this way. I'm writing this for others that are in need of something, but do not know what they are looking for. I know how you feel. I know what it feels like to have an emptiness and always looking for more. I know what its like to always put on that happy face and smile when you're in a crowd and go home and cry your eyes out. I know what its like to have someone preach to you and tell you you have to go to church and start living for Jesus. To constantly preach and tell you things you don't want to hear, (even if you do believe in God). I know what its like to avoid those people always pushing and telling you what you need to be doing. And I know how you are thinking that giving your heart and soul to Jesus will make your life so dull and boring. No more parties, no more drinking and smoking and just plain having fun. Right? I know how it will cut into your sleep in time on Sunday morning, and the big thing is...what will your friends say? Will they call you a religious fanatic or a Holy Roller. Will they turn their back on you and walk away laughing. The answer to that is Yes, some of them will and it will hurt when they do. And your first thought will be, I don't need them and I will get even with them someday. You may even lose your "Best Friend." Sad huh? But I can tell that when you give your life to Jesus, its you that will change not them. You will no longer have those desires to party, to drink, to smoke, to curse, (which I did very badly). You will become hungry for Jesus, hungry for His word, hungry for His promises, hungry for His Peace, His Joy, His comfort, His strength, His Love. You will change your way of thinking and will see things differently. I did myself and I promise you will never regret giving your heart and soul to Jesus. When I accepted Jesus into my heart and asked for forgiveness of my sins, He Changed My Life. He Changed My Thinking. He Changed Me. I found myself reading the Bible and watching Preachers on TV all the time, wanting more and more of Jesus. Wanting to serve Him. Wanting to please Him. One day at a time wanting more and more of Him. I wanted to go to church to learn more about Him. I could not get enough of Him. It was so wonderful and still is to this day to finally feel peace and joy. To finally be able to smile and laugh without forcing it or faking it. I was finally happy and wanted everyone to know why. I had people ask me what happened, what changed me and why was I always smiling and always seemed so full of joy and sunshine. And I would always say, "Because I found Jesus." My life began that day.

Now I know this is a long story and some of you have probably give up and said no more. And I understand and know that you are going ahead and living your life and doing what you have always done and that's okay. I will continue to pray for you. But if you've read this far, could it be you are looking for more? More Peace, more joy, more love than you've ever known, more of Jesus. Praise God. If you want to give your life to Jesus. It's not to late. Jesus is Real, Heaven is Real. AND THERE'S ONLY ONE WAY TO HEAVEN. And that's THROUGH JESUS CHRIST OUR LORD AND SAVIOR. Just say this prayer with all your heart, "Jesus, I am a sinner and I come to You now to ask for forgiveness of my sins. I give my life to You. I believe You are the Son of God. Come into my life and Save me. Thank You Sweet Lord. "In Jesus Name" Amen!" If you said this prayer and meant it with all your heart, I believe you are "Born Again". Let your life begin now. Follow Jesus and let Him fill you life with joy, with peace, with comfort, with His Love. Go and tell others what the Good Lord is doing for you. You will find life on this earth so much more sweeter. REACH FOR JESUS' HAND and HOLD ONTO HIM. You will never regret it...I promise

Thank you all for reading this and I pray that it has given someone hope. I will never turn my back on Jesus again...And I Pray you don't either...God Bless you all...Robin
