“For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that
whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting
life.”
John 3: 16
King James Version
Today is my birthday; I am sixty three years old and I am so thankful
that I have another year to serve Jesus. My family came over yesterday
to celebrate with me and we had angel food cake and vanilla ice cream
with strawberries. The food was delicious, but having my family here was
the real treat. I felt the love from my family for me.
Several years ago on August 14, 1980, I asked Jesus to forgive me of my
sins and come into my heart to be my personal Saviour. That was the
greatest day of my life; a day filled with love from the Saviour for me.
If I didn’t have a spiritual birthday, I could live to be one hundred
years old and still be lost in my sins, without Jesus and on my way to
hell for eternity. |

When I think of the Saviour of the world loving me, I am filled with awe
and gratitude. Jesus, who hung on the cross for me, came to me when I
couldn’t go to Him. He stretched His nail scarred hand down to me and
lifted me up out of the garbage dump of my life, put His arms around me
and hugged me close to His Heart. He has never let me go, not even for
one second, since that day.
Do you have a spiritual birthday? Have you given your heart and life to
the Christ of Calvary? Is Jesus living in your heart today? If not,
don’t put it off! He could come back even as you read this devotional.
Say yes to Jesus before it is too late! He Loves you so much and wants
you to be happy and have a joyful and peaceful life.
