Easy as ABC


This week has been like many others for me.   God talks and I listen…then I usually write.  But this week He talked…I listened…but I didn’t write.  I know what He is telling me and I get it, but I wasn’t quite sure what I was supposed to do with it.  So I did nothing.  Well, as you can guess, it was the wrong thing to do!  I have been getting this same verse over and over and over!  At one point I actually said, “OK God!  I get it.  I know this and I do it…but apparently He wants me to share what I already know!

John 1:1

In the beginning was the word, and the word was with God, and the word was God.

That, we all know! It’s pretty straight forward.  But here is where things start to get tricky.

John 14:6

Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me.

This is the verse that I have seen constantly this week.  And I know that is the only way I am going to Heaven.  I already have my ticket; I asked for it, Jesus paid for it.  There is nothing we-us-me-I-you-can do to get there.  Jesus died on the cross for our sins and it’s so simple- our part!  Ask him into our hearts and have faith.

Romans 10:17

So then faith cometh by hearing, and hearing by the word of God.

John 3:16

God loved us so much that He gave His only so that by believing in Him we could have everlasting life

There are a lot of good people in the world!  They do all the right things; give to charity, help the homeless, take in kids from shelters, and some may even go to church, but without Christ in your heart-and He is just waiting to be invited in-you are still going to Hell!

Acts 16:31

And they said, believe on the Lord Jesus Christ, and thou shalt be saved, and thy house.

It’s so easy, and trust me, there are so many benefits; the greatest being able to live with Jesus eternally.  The love and joy you experience while here on earth is so good and when you have Jesus in your heart you always have a best friend.  He is never too busy, never over commits himself, always knows just what to say and never judges you!  No matter how dark your path He is always there to go with you lighting the way.  My path has been very dark and scary.  Often times I couldn’t see to put one foot in front of the other, that’s how dark it was.  But Praise God I had a glow stick that when bent it glowed even more!  That light was Jesus!  And He can shine for you too!

 

John 8:12

Then spoke Jesus again unto them, saying, I am the light of the world: he that followeth me shall not walk in darkness, but shall have the light of life.

After receiving that verse numerous times this week and just kind of “ignoring” it, God started putting the story of Jonah upon me.  Not just once but several times.  So this morning I just asked Him, “God, what am I running from, what am I not doing that you want me to do?” That’s when I got that verse one more time and I finally got it!  So I implore you, if you are reading this and don’t know Jesus, this is for you!  He cares enough for you to burden my heart so much that I write these bible verses so that you know He cares for you!  Don’t wait until it’s too late!  Ask him into your heart today!

Ask…Believe…Confess… Easy as ABC!
