#PRONTOPOSTEI 2

1

Dear Soul,

Today, the road may have seemed steep, and you feel alone.

Someone you trust has disappointed you.

God sees your tears... He feels your pain.

He longs to comfort you,

for He is a friend who sticks closer than a brother.

God loves you so much

that He sent His only Son, Jesus, to die in your place.

He will forgive you for every sin you have ever committed,

(past, present and future)

if you are willing to turn from them.

Maybe you feel,

"He won't forgive my sins

for they are too great,

you don't know the sins I've committed,

I strayed too far from His love."

I understand your thoughts, dear soul.

I too, felt unworthy, undeserving of His love.

At the foot of the cross I plead for mercy,

but such is the grace of our God.

The Scriptures says,

"...I came not to call the righteous,

but sinners to repentance."

Mark 2:17(KJV)

Soul, that includes you and I.

No matter how deep into the pit you've fallen,

God's grace is deeper still.

The dirty, despondant souls He came to save.

He'll reach out His hand to hold yours!

With every heart bowed,

slip your hand if you can say with me,

"I am a sinner! I've been a sinner all of my life,

and I want to be forgiven."

Maybe you are an alcholic.

You've mistreated your wife.

You regret the mistakes of your past

and you want to be forgiven.

God bless you, brother!

Are there any other sinners here tonight?

Maybe some of you are like that fallen sinner,

she was a prostitute, the talk of the town.

With a veil around her face she came to Jesus,

knowing He was the One who could save her.

With tears streaming down her face

she wet His feet with her tears,

and wiped them with her hair.

He said to her, "your sins which are many are forgiven."

Soul, can He say that of you tonight?

Many of you have tears streaming down your face

as you can relate to her.

Maybe you're not a prostitude of your body,

but of your time...

your money... your faith.

You've given yourself to unworthy cause,

or sold yourself for a lesser value for whatever the reason.

You're as guilty as she was,

but the same Jesus that has forgiven her

will forgive you tonight.

One day you will stand before the Lord,

transparent in His presence.

The Books of your life will be open, to be judged.

Each thought... each word... every motive of your heart

will be revealed in His illuminating light.

Slip up your hand if you can say with me,

"I've tried it on my own, I made a mess out of my life.

I want to be forgiven!"

God sees your hand, dear soul.

Sure you made your share of mistakes, but He still loves you!

Whenever I pass a cemetary, I remember my time will come.

It might be the end of the road for some of you pretty soon.

Maybe you thought about giving your life to Christ,

but put it off for one reason or another.

Today is the day of Salvation, harden not your heart.

The Scriptures says,

"For God so loved the world,

that He gave His only begotten Son,

that whosoever believeth in Him should not perish,

but have everlasting life."

-John 3:16

"And whosoever was not found written in the Book of Life

will be cast into the Lake of Fire."

But tonight you can make peace with God,

you can have your sins forgiven

and begin a personal relationship with Him

by praying a prayer such as the following:

"O God, I am a sinner.

I am sorry for my sins.

Please forgive me.

I want to turn from my sin.

I receive Jesus Christ as my Savior;

I confess Him as my Lord.

From now on, I want to follow Him.

In Jesus' name, Amen.
