I remember as a boy, coming to the altar with child-like faith to received Christ as my Savior. Unfortunately, as a teenager and young adult, things happened to pull me far away from my Savior. Some was my brokenness and some the brokenness of others in my life. I also remember as a young man coming to the altar to leave all my past and mistakes behind and to make my Savior also my Lord. Why? Because Jesus never quit calling me. I could not run so far that I could escape His voice. I surrendered that day and began a great journey that I am still on today. What a beautiful life He has given me. Beauty for ashes. Oh, what a Savior!!!
Amen, So beautiful story. But these days no any alter. Maybe in Israiel and Muslim countries. But it was a part of surranding to God. I ask myself how many parts of my life is surranded to Him? I answer scary. because still there are many parts I scare to surrond to God. It's mean me (and people like me) are not know God and his mercy and favor. If we totaly understand, then we totaly surrond. Pray for love and more connect to God. Amen
@@ONJOY-Worship Satan causes fear. He is a liar and the father of lies. We must have courage to overcome the lies of fear and surrender to a life of faith. To surrender to the God who loves us, trusting that He will give us His best, either in this life or in the life to come. Jesus says, "come to me all who are weary and heavy laden, and I will give you rest." When we surrender to Christ, we find rest!
