I may not see in front of me, But I can see for miles around when I look over my shoulder, and Lord, it`s clear. You`ve brought me here, So faithful every step of the way. What can I do but follow you, For You are the Way, the Truth, the Life, And You`ve promised never to leave me, My Savior, my friend, From beginning to end.
I Am Found In You

The Spirit and the Bride say, "Come!" And let him who hears say, "Come!" Whoever is thirsty, let him come; and whoever wishes, let him take the free gift of the water of life. Revelation 22:17 NIV
Have you read the end of the story? God wants you to come to know Him!
All throughout God's Love Story we call the Bible, God spells out His plan for His greatest creation. God says He foreknew us, that He called us into fellowship with Him. He says that He has prepared a wonderful life for those who would call upon Him. He tells of our eternity in Heaven, found through the grace of His Son, Jesus. Through each page of scripture, God tells of His love for you and me.
That love continues, even to the end of the Book. As we read the last page of our Bible, we find that God is still calling mankind unto Himself. Isn't that just like God?
Have you ever known someone who came to know the Lord, even after many had given up on them. I know a man whose family has faithfully attended church every week for many years. The family would consistently ask prayers for the father. It got to the point where literally people would patronize them in agreement, but never expected the man to ever come to know Jesus. I will never forget the joy I sensed in the church when that man was baptized. People were pleasantly surprised! Praise God, He had not given up on this man. This man is now in church every Sunday, sitting beside a happy family!
Who do you know that is far from the Lord? Keep praying for them. Do you still struggle everyday in your walk with Him? May I tell you that Jesus is still calling your name? From Genesis 1:1 to Revelation 22:21, God wants a relationship with His people.
That includes you!
