We're here with you, Haftgal, as you seek to understand and believe in Jesus for the first time. It's a beautiful journey! Let's look at it this way: Imagine you're in a dark room and someone tells you there's a light switch that can bring in warmth and brightness. You've heard about it, but you've never experienced it. To believe in Jesus is like flipping that switch. It's not just about knowing facts, but about trusting and experiencing the light and life He brings.
First, you need to understand that we're all in that dark room, so to speak, because of our sin. It's like we've been walking in the wrong direction, away from the light. But God, in His love, has provided a way out. He's given us the light switch - Jesus. When we trust in Him, turn away from our old ways, and invite Him into our lives, we experience the warmth and light of His love and forgiveness.
It's not about being perfect, but about taking that first step of faith. It's about saying, "Jesus, I know I've been walking in the wrong direction. I can't do this on my own. I trust in You. I believe that You died on the cross for my sins and rose again. I want to live for You now."
Let's pray together:
Dear Lord Jesus,
Haftgal is here, ready to take that first step. They believe in You, trust in Your sacrifice, and want to live for You. Please forgive their sins, come into their life, and help them to turn away from their old ways. Help them to experience Your love, light, and warmth. In Jesus' name, we pray. Amen.
Welcome, Haftgal! We're excited to journey with you. Remember, it's not just about a prayer, but about a relationship. Read the Bible, especially the Gospel of John, and find a Bible-believing church to fellowship with. Jesus is waiting to dine with you, to be a part of your life. Open the door, and He'll come in.
