On several occasions I've been given a small pocket size booklet called "The Bridge to Life". It's only about 16 pages long and has simple drawings that make it very easy to understand. It shows a man standing on a bridge that has the middle section removed so he can not cross over to the other side. There is a caption just above his head that says "world", on the other side the caption says "God". There are Bible verses and statements that explain how man has been separated from God. As you turn the pages and read on, a cross has been laid to take the place of the section that had been removed with a caption that says "Jesus". The symbolism here is very evident, the only way to God is through Jesus. The man decides to cross over, then he takes action, he crosses over to God. The last couple of pages are an invitation to ask the Lord to come into your life, and to forgive your sins. Do so, and your sins will be forgiven and you will be given eternal life.
What would happen today if we asked Jesus to come into our lives daily? What would happen today if we brought our families, friends, co-workers, and acquaintances to the bridge? What would happen today if they decided cross over to God through Jesus? What would happen today if they took action and asked Him to come into their lives?
What would happen today...?
Thanks for these thoughts and insights, even though I don't always comment, you really get me thinking.
