Knowing God
The Bible tells of a Good News-Bad News situation.
The bad news is, without God something is missing in people's lives. That's because each person is born with a God-shaped hole inside them. We can try all kinds of ways to fill it ourselves but the fact is only God can fill it.
The good news is that's exactly what God would like to do.
The bad news is, that each of us falls short of the glory of God. Our nature and its shortcomings are referred to as sinful in the Bible. Sin separates us from God.
But, the Good News is that God did something about it. He loved the world so much, He sent His only Son Jesus Christ to die as payment for the sins of all people. Jesus died on the cross but He rose again and is alive today, proving He had overcome sin and death.
Have you personally accepted what Jesus did? If you long to have a vital relationship with the Living God, the Bible tells you how: "Everyone who calls on the name of the Lord will be saved." (Romans 10:13)
Living Light News would like God to become part of your life. You can say it in your own words, or pray this prayer from your heart:
Dear God,
I realize that I need You in my life and confess that I have fallen short. I believe that Jesus gave His life for the forgiveness of my sins, and I accept with great thanks your Gift of forgiveness. Please come into my life and begin a new relationship with me.
In Jesus' name I pray,
Amen.
