Happy New Year
What will the new year bring. My hope is this will be a year we turn back to God, not only in my home in America but around the world.
2011 has been a tough year for many around the world. Many have been protesting and calling for change. What is that change they are looking for? When I here some talk it is not clear. But they do sound angry and frustrated. Unfortunately many are out their for the spotlight and many just want a hand out just for being here. They feel they are entitled.
They are looking in the wrong direction if they want true hope and change. Even though none of us are entitled, there is a free gift they can get that brings true hope and change.
Look to Christ for that free gift. Look to Christ for hope and change and He will deliver. No politictian can, but Jesus can. He can deliver on eternal life, no other can.
I say to the protesters and to all those looking for answers get down on your knees right where you are and ask, that is all it takes, just ask. Jesus will come into your life and give you hope no matter where you are in your life.
This is not earned, it is given to all who ask and believe. Give Him your life and He will give you life.
"For God so loved the world, that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him should not perish, but have eternal life. For God did not send the Son into the world to judge the world; but that the world should be saved through Him." John 3:16-17
That is the hope we need for 2012, ask and believe.
God Bless,
Brian
