Some people get hit by God/Jesus and it totally changes their lives. Many grow up with it so its not so much a hit, but rather a slow slide. Though for most though there is an opportunity in live where the realization of who Jesus is and what he brings hits. With this moment you can become “born again” if you choose to do so. Changing you life can be a pretty serious thing depending where you are. It can also be scary. It can be easy to say no and life stays the same boring thing. Or you can as I say, “level up”. There is no doubt God wants you to make a choice. He doesn’t like wimbly, nibbly, luke warm attitudes. He prefers to have you full in or full out. Do you like friends that are fair weathered? Do you like friends that hang in the good times but leave as soon as you need help. You read stories of thousands of people following Jesus at times like when he fed the 5,000. That’s what people did. They met him and found him amazing by his works and his word. They got “zinged” and felt they had no other choice than to follow. The world was anxiously awaiting a savior now God anxiously awaits you. He wants to share his, love, knowledge and word. He wants you to follow so you get to experience the wonderfulness of being a Christian. Will it always be easy? No, you will have tough times, but you will not be alone and what waits for you is so much greater than the joy you can receive along the way. It all starts with accepting Jesus letting him heal your wounded soul and then letting the journey begin.
Luke 8:1-3
1Soon afterward he went on through cities and villages, preaching and bringing the good news of the kingdom of God. And the twelve were with him, 2and also some women who had been healed of evil spirits and infirmities: Mary, called Mag'dalene, from whom seven demons had gone out, 3and Joan'na, the wife of Chuza, Herod's steward, and Susanna, and many others, who provided for them out of their means.
