A Relationship of Convenience?

If you are a born‐again believer, what was the pitch that sold you on Jesus? If your experience was like that of most people, I assume your motives for surrendering your life to Jesus were self‐serving. Join the crowd. Most of us were sold on Jesus as a way to get out from under our guilt and shame. Or we had some other problem with no human solution.
But if we get stuck at this stage in our relationship with Jesus, we effectively gut the potential of our relationship with Him. If our faith in God is just about understanding how to get God to deliver us from our troubles, then we have truly missed out.
