Once, there was this Father who doted on his children, though He never did spoil them..He gave them everything that they needed and more..they had tasty n nutritious food, nice clothes and many toys to play wif..
but alas, one day, the children decided to take some building blocks and crafted a robot in their image..then they said to one another, let us call it our father..it will provide for all our needs..when the biological Father saw it, He was overwhelmed with grief..year after year, the children refused to acknowledge Him or His presence..when they did they scorned Him and spat on Him..but the Father never gave up..Filled with love, He sought them out and initiated reconciliation with them..
if you are reading this and have not yet established a relationship wif God, i wish to share this with u, that..
1) God made us and wants to have a personal relationship wif us
2) He yearns to share in our joy and sorrow, like a Father to his children
3) but we have sinned and turned away from Him( the penalty for sin is death )
4) but God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten son Jesus Christ to redeem our sins through death on the cross, that we may restore this relationship
5)all that is left for us to do is to repent, open the door of our hearts to personally receive Jesus into our lives and through Him experience God's love again..
6) you can do this through a simple prayer: Dear Lord Jesus, thank You for dying on the cross for me, i accept You now as Savior and Lord of my life. Lead me as you know best. In Jesus' name i pray. Amen.
