"If my people, which are called by my name, shall humble themselves, and pray, and seek my face, and turn from their wicked ways; then will I hear from heaven, and will forgive their sin, and will heal their land." 2 Chronicles 7:14 ____ "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
IN THE SCHOOL AGAIN
Today I took my guitar not knowing what to expect but determnined to be ready for anything as both Bianka & I headed back to the same school we visited yesterday. We spoke in 5 classes and the hurricane & earthquake stories seemed to be a big hit! But apparently, it is quite a treat for these kids to hear from an American in person, so again we shared, we answered questions, we sang and we saw the hearts of these kids open up more and more. In the last class which was full of Moslem teenage boys, one asked, "How does my friend who is Jewish become a Christian?" pointing to someone on the other side of the room who was surprised by this - the first boy may really have been talking about himself as well - so everyone started talking at once. Then I said, "My best Friend is Jewish" and it got quiet again. "And His name is Jesus and He was born in Bethlehem! Becoming a Christian is easy, very easy... BUT, you must be serious and pray from your heart. The Bible says if you confess with your mouth that Jesus is Lord and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved. Admit you are a sinner, ask God to forgive you, and ask Jesus into your heart." Only God knows what is churning in the minds and hearts of these youths now! HALLELUJAH and THANK YOU, JESUS!
Over the years my opinions have changed but this will never change: Jesus Christ, Lord, God and Savior, died on the cross and rose from the dead to pay for my sin.
