THE PURSUIT OF HAPPINESS
If you were to ask, most people would say that the one thing they want in life is to be happy. But you have probably already discovered that happiness can easily come and go, because happiness is a feeling that is based on circumstances. And circumstances can quickly change.
But in John 10:10, Jesus said He came to give us something more than happiness. He came to give us life— abundant life!
Those who put their faith in Jesus can experience both the joys of life more abundantly here on earth and life everlasting with Him in heaven. According to Romans 6:23, there is only one way to have this eternal life:“ The wages of sin is death, but the gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord.”
Although everyone has sinned and deserves death( eternal separation from God in hell), God has given us a gift— the gift of eternal life through Jesus. Jesus, the only sinless sacrifice, paid the price for our sins through His death on the cross and resurrection from the dead.“ But God demonstrates his own
love for us in this: While we were still sinners, Christ died for us”( Romans 5:8). Jesus did what we as sinners could not do for ourselves. Therefore, it is only through Him that we are able to have the gift of eternal life.
The following prayer is a guideline to help you tell God that you want to accept His gift of eternal life:
Dear God, I know that I am a sinner. Thank You for sending Your perfect Son Jesus to die in my place. I trust that it is only through His sacrificial death on the cross and resurrection from the dead that I am able to have a right relationship with you now and for eternity. Please save me from my sin so that I can live with you forever. In Jesus’ name, Amen
If you have accepted God’ s gift of eternal life, please let us know so we can encourage you and pray for you. To learn more about the Christian life, we suggest reading the Gospel of John in the New Testament.
