If I can be honest... you have doubts - or you would not be here.
Take a breath... let it out, slowly... one more time... breathe... let it out. Now you're ready.
Religion, all religions, can make you just a little bit crazy: the clothes you wear, who you can talk to, services, meetings, what you can read or see, events you must attend, time, money. It can be overwhelming.
And when the requirements of religion wear you down, the scary thoughts begin to creep in... Is it worth it? Do I really trust what I have been taught? And then, the big one: Does all this save me... am I really saved?
That's why you're here, after all. So let me rip off the bandage... religion does not save... can not save... never has! What you need; what you are looking for is a relationship with Jesus. Not an arms-length 'Hey, how's it going, pal?'; but a personal, in-your-face connection with the creator of the universe. The one who is going to give you your next breath... there, that one! And the next...
He is waiting to meet you. Take a minute right now - yes, this very minute - and whisper something like, "Hi, Jesus... I'm Roger... I know it's been a while since I thanked you for my life. I'm sorry. Can you come over later so we can catch up?"
Begin developing a personal relationship with Jesus - talk with Him just like you talk with your best friend. He's a great listener!
