I am very moved during this time, near the rising of my Lord.  One year ago I gave myself over to Jesus for the last time.  I have been walking in the spirit a year now and it is wonderful.  My whole life has changed, the people around me have changed.  Many times I asked Jesus to come into my heart.  He did His part, but I didn't do mine.  I went to church once in a while. I said my prayers once in a while.  But I didn't take the time to read His teachings. I cry now to think about what I have been missing so many years of His word.  Everything you need to know is in the Bible.  He has left the book of life here on earth for us.  Have you really ever thought about what Jesus did for us.  The agony He went through must have been unbearable.  He was just a person like you and I.  But He made the choice to save an ungrateful world.  Think about it!
