Beverly Thomas had a mother’s love and faith to depend on as she grew up. But her world fell apart when her mother died. In the midst of her trauma, she lost sight of the one her mother lived for and tried to find love, fulfillment and relief in other ways.
It took a baby to remind Beverly of the praying world of faith her mother raised her in. And Jesus was there, ready to be with her the very day she asked Him to be.
Has your world been shattered by disappointment or someone’s death? You don’t have to live in the dull darkness like Beverly lived in. You can find the same light, warmth and purpose. Whether you were raised with a mother who served Creator God, or whether you are not familiar with His path, Jesus is standing by, ready to be with you this very day. Your prayer can be as simple as the one Beverly uttered.
• Tell God that you want to accept His way to know true peace and joy.
• Tell Him that you know that without His help, you understand that you will be separated from God in life and death.
• Accept Jesus as God’s only provision to deal with your separation from Him.
• Invite Jesus, God’s Son, to take control of your life and place you in His care.
Dear God, I accept Your way. I believe Your Son Jesus died for my sins so I can become part of the family of God. Because You raised Jesus from the dead, I can experience Harmony of Life with Your Son as my Shepherd. I’m sorry and turn from my sins and ask You, God, to take charge of my life. I ask your Holy Spirit to come and fill me now with Your presence and power that I will live each day walking on Your Path. I offer this prayer to You through Your Son, Jesus. Amen.
