Inviting Christ into Your Life
Day 222

Surrendering your life to Christ is a step of faith and an act of will. God is most interested in the sincerity of your heart and not the words you pray. He recognizes a genuine desire to surrender to Him.

"I know that in your heart if you say, 'Jesus, I believe in You. I know that You're my Savior,' He hears it. He hears your heart," says Cindy Morgan. "I think He pays a lot more attention to your heart than your words."

Invite Christ into your life today. He gave His life for you.

You see, at just the right time, when we were still powerless, Christ died for the ungodly. Very rarely will anyone die for a righteous man, though for a good man someone might possibly dare to die. But God demonstrates his own love for us in this: While we were still sinners, Christ died for us. Since we have now been justified by his blood, how much more shall we be saved from God's wrath through him! For if, when we were God's enemies, we were reconciled to him through the death of his Son, how much more, having been reconciled, shall we be saved through his life! (Romans 5:6-10)

Lord Jesus, thank you for saving me from this old life and giving me a new life in You. Amen.
