In America, two brothers were sentenced to 20 years in prison for trying to kill their parents. They allegedly drugged their parents, stabbed them and tried to set the house on fire. Despite the horror they went through the parents have chosen to forgive their boys and asked the judge for mercy. These parents were willing to forgive their children no matter what has happened. This is love! Think of it, our Lord Jesus chose to forgive us our sins no matter how grievous it is, and to accept us as His very own when we repent of them (1 John 4:10). Sometimes you hear people say if God truly say He loves us why does He allow the killings and bombings around the world? Well I want you to know one basic truth: First of all, right from the day Adam and Eve ate the fruit they were told not to eat by God in the Garden of Eden man fell, and the only remedy is Jesus coming into the life of a man before man can take his rightful position. Secondly, the Bible said, “The human heart is the most deceitful of all things, and desperately wicked. Who really knows how bad it is? But I, the LORD, search all hearts and examine secret motives. I give all people their due rewards, according to what their actions deserve” (NLT Version). Salvation is free and God has given man free will to choose, to accept Him or not. What will you say about a young man who is in dire need of help but refuses help given to him. True change starts with and within us that way we can make impact in the lives of those around us both in the church (Body of Christ) and the world at large.

God’s love is wonderful and awesome. It’s so high, wide and deep that we cannot fathom it. Even though I always pray for God to touch the heart of sinners to repent, I have never fully understood how God can allow a wicked man who has committed so much atrocities such like wiped out a whole family still come and receive God’s mercies until I watched on the news about the two boys who wanted to kill their parents and their parents still forgave them and pleaded with the judge to have mercy on them. This is what Jesus does for all His creation today as long as you still have breathe in you. It is never too late to ask for this same mercy for God’s love is still available for us to access. What crime have you committed; is it abortion, is it killing a fellow man or woman, its it cheating on your spouse, is it drugs, name it. Jesus is at the door your heart knocking, if you will open your heart and receive Him, He will come in and take His rightful place in your life. New and great things will He do in your life (Luke 15: 11 – 32).  Jesus’ arm is still wide open just as it was on the cross for Him to embrace you and say, “Your sin has been forgiven, go and sin no more” (John 8:11). Your question may be is that all – well yes that is all as long as you don’t go back to your old ways. All you need is to find a living church where the Word of God is preached and the man of God is living a righteous life and there God will use him and other fellow believers to help you grow spiritually. Study the Word of God day and night. Ask the Holy Spirit to help you understand the mysteries in the Word and I pray that your hearts will be flooded with light so that you can understand the confident hope God has given to us He called–His holy people who are His rich and glorious inheritance. I pray for you that God will meet every need you so desire to make you grow in your knowledge of Christ and that He shall send to you an angel in form of a friend who will guide you in the things of the spirit and to make wise decisions and such a person will not be afraid of your success or run you down because of your failures rather he shall encourage you and not quit. Remain blessed.
