LOVE. Did you know that God made you to love you? Also, that He made you so you could love Him? In other words, we are created for a love relationship with God. He doesn’t want to be so mysterious to us, that we walk away in fear or confusion. Rather, the Bible says God has revealed Himself to us - made Himself known to us, so this personal love relationship can be what you experience each day.
Why don’t we automatically have this kind of relationship with and knowledge of God? Because we’re all rebels who “left home”, running away from the Father who loves us. We believe that everyone can come back home. Your heavenly Father is pursuing you for that purpose.
How can it be?
ADMIT that you are a sinner and need God’s forgiveness, grace, mercy, and restoration.
BELIEVE that Jesus is God’s perfect Son who came to forgive us -- died on the Cross for your sins, but was raised from the dead, proving God’s power over sin, Satan, and death.
CONFESS your faith in Jesus, telling both Him and others that you want God to guide and control your life.
If you have just taken these steps, welcome home! God, your Father has been longing for this day. And, guess what? You have a great big spiritual family who are going to be excited to meet a new brother or sister. Let us help you as you continue now in a life of following Jesus.
