Faithful Friday..... Do you know????

It's another Faithful Friday post... And am I so glad to share this with all of you. This week we lost a very special person to us. Papa has went home to be with our Lord and Savior. And as we set out to make the journey across several states, to be with family and all, it had me thinking..... I know kinda hard to believe... But it did.... I'm so thankful that God's promise tells us we have ever lasting life, so that I know he is in Heaven and I will one day join him too. Did you know you can be saved and ensure you have a peaceful pain free everlasting life? And you will be rejoicing with our Savior? How awesome is that?

So I wanted to share with everyone, incase someone doesn't know this, just how to be saved and know you too will one day be rejoicing with the King of Kings. So I am going to share a couple of scriptures and then a prayer.

John 3:16 For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whoever believeth in him should not perish, but have ever lasting life.


Acts 16:31 Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ, and thou shalt be saved.

Eph 3:17 That Christ may dwell in your hearts by faith.

Psalms 37:24 Though he fall, he shall not be utterly cast down: for the Lord upholdeth him with his hand.

So see, it's that simple! God gave his son Jesus, so that we who believe in him are SAVED. Therefore Christ is in us! And no matter what we do, as long as we keep believing, he will never turn his back and push us out! What a beautiful and wonderful blessing this is for us!!! It makes me so happy!!!

It's simple, it really is! And all you have to do is believe and ask Jesus to come into your heart.
Here's a prayer to pray, if you haven't ever asked Jesus to be your Lord and Savior, and wish to do so.

Dear Heavenly Father, I come to you in believing that you are our creator, and that you gave your son, Jesus Christ for me. That he died for our sins on the cross at Calvery. He then rose from the dead. Your word tells us in Romans 10:9 that if we confess the Lord our God and believe in our hearts that God raised Jesus from the dead, then we shall be saved. So Father, I believe that Jesus died for my sins and was raised from the dead by you. I ask that Jesus come to my heart, and I accept he is my personal savior. I thank you father for this gift of eternal life. I think you Jesus for being my personal savior. That so I shall be saved. In your Son's precious Holy name, Amen.

It's really that simple! I am not asking you to follow a particular religion, instead I am asking and hoping you will find a relationship with our Lord and Savior, so that you too shall have an everlasting eternal life. If you would like to talk more about this, message me and I'll be glad to visit and pray with you.

May you all have a beautiful blessed weekend!

Hugs and Blessings,

Patty,

That is a wonderful explanation of how to accept Christ! It is really such a simple action on our part and such a huge gift that we receive, that it just baffles me why everyone doesn't jump at the chance to know Jesus! I can't imagine a day without Him!

Thanks for sharing the beautiful message of salvation and for participating in Faithful Friday.

I'm sorry for the loss of your Papa, but you CAN rejoice in the fact that you will be with him again one day! :)

Blessings,
Tammy
