Happy Easter!

Hey Friends,

Happy Easter weekend, this is Odie checking in. This is the time that we celebrate the resurrection of our Savior. Easter 2020 definitely is not a "normal" Easter for anyone. We must stop and reflect on the fact that we have a Risen Savior. That is something that will never change.

I am so thankful that Jesus willingly gave His life on the cross. Now we can have eternal life. Christ died for our sins so that you and I would not have to die. 

Jesus paid the sin debt for the entire world before we were even born. All you have to do is ask Him to be your Savoir. You can talk to Him this very moment.

The story does not end with the death and burial of Jesus Christ. Praise God, He did not stay dead. On the third day, He arose from the grave! Our Savior is forever alive!

Today He is in Heaven with the Father. Those that are saved will join them in Heaven very soon. What a wonderful thing we have to look forward to when this life is over.

Do you need hope for these uncertain times? Jesus Christ is the answer that you are searching for. Trouble does not magically disappear for the Christian, but we have hope. Jesus is always with us! He is the only thing that is constant and dependable! We can survive life because of Jesus.

Do you feel like you do not know how to pray? Talk to Him just like you would talk to your best friend. It does not have to be an elaborate prayer.

I am reminded of a scripture that gives us hope through Christ. It is found in the Bible, in the book of I John verse number nine. 

“If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just to forgive us our sins, and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness.” 
I John 1:9 KJV

Here is an idea of how to begin your prayer. Some call this the ABCs of salvation, ask, believe and confess. This is just a good starting point. Ask Jesus to be your Savior, tell Him that you believe that He died for you, and confess to Him that you know that you are a sinner.

Also here are some other things that you can pray about. Ask Jesus to be the Lord of your life. Ask Him to cleanse your heart from the darkness that has bound you. Jesus loves you! Friend, you a not alone with Jesus in your life.

Prayer does not end at salvation. It is our line of communication with our Heavenly Father through His son Jesus. He is always available for us to talk to Him.

The Bible is God's Holy Word. It is the road map for life to the Christian. I recommend the King James Version for English speaking people. If you do not have access to a Bible, you can use Google to find free ways to read it online. Also, you can download free apps on your phone or other devices.

If you have prayed today for Christ to enter your life, please reach out to us and let us know! Click here to contact us. We would love to hear from you!
