Happy Birthday to me!
August 7, 2008This weekend I will celebrate my spiritual birthday! 8 years ago I gave my heart to Jesus. It was a day that changed my life and opened my eyes to a world I had been blinded from; I can even remember the service I was in. I even purchased the CD from that service to listen to over and over so I can keep that day in the front of my thinking. I never want to lose that excitement I felt on that day. The joy that over took me. The true forgiveness I felt for the first time for the sins I had committed. The realization that God loved me so much he sent His son to die for me! The new revelation I had about the plan and purpose God had for my life.
Take today and think about the day you truly accepted Jesus and meditate on it for a while. It will renew your spirit! If you have not made a commitment to receive Jesus, pray and ask Him into your life, to forgive your sins and totally take over your life!
Happy Birthday!!
Great post. Your words are so real and refreshing. Thanks for the reminder. I will take a moment and reflect on the day Jesus gave me new life in Him.
It is a beautiful thing how God transforms our life and the lives around us.
