Christ Is Worth Our Consideration

"It is not necessary that we should be able to tell where or how we have been converted, but it is important that we should be able to tell that we are converted." - Dwight L. Moody

At some point in our lives we all come across that proverbial "fork in the road." This is an old metaphor which is used to describe a deciding, or life-changing moment where a big decision must be made. One must weigh their options carefully though, because no matter the choice your life will inevitably never be the same.

The decision to come to Christ is definitely one of these landmark moments. I remember when I made the decision to give my life to Jesus. There were no fireworks; marching parades; or loud claps of thunder with lightning flashing across the sky. It was just me in my room, alone with my Lord and Savior.

Obviously, everyone's experience is different. Some may prefer a quiet intimate setting, while others feel more comfortable surrounded by others seeking to do the same. In the end it's only the outcome that really matters. And that is, giving your life to Jesus Christ (John 3:3).

What is required on your part is this: you must receive (acknowledge and believe) Jesus as your Lord and Savior, repent of your sins, accept that He he sacrificed Himself for your sins, and trust in Him and Him alone as your Savior.

When you choose to accept Christ's offer, it means that you have chosen to follow Him; that you desire to become a Christian. You have made the decision to accept His offer of salvation.

Some may be skeptical about this whole thing. But, unlike other offers that come with membership fees and other hidden costs, it isn't the case here. The big difference is that this offer comes from God, and anyone can receive it. Anyone!

Others mistakenly believe that being a Christian is all about procedures, attending church, and doing this and not that. It's really about having a personal, private, intimate relationship with Jesus Christ.

Of course, this is a decision only you can make. But of all the decisions you have made in your life, how many have left you in a far better state than you were before? Better yet, how many have resulted in eternal life and salvation? (Romans 10:9)

Scripture: John 14:6; Acts 4:12; John 3:16; Titus 3:5; John 1:12

Prayer: Dear Lord, thank You for making it possible for a humble, human being like myself, to be able to partake in Your eternal, saving grace and mercy, Amen

Have a blessed Monday!
