“I know so many people in their lives that continually say to me, Mandi, I have a lot of work to do before I can ever come to Jesus..and I say to them all..you don’t have to clean yourself up before you come to the Lord..Amen..because God is the one in whom cleans us up..we can never do it for ourselves..no matter how hard we try to do the right things..to act the right way..to be better..to do better..to behave..we just honestly can’t..because guys we are sinful human beings..and only the Lord can transform us..Romans 12:2..and wash us..clean us up..Amen..because even after we come to Jesus..we still need that washing of His word..we still need Him to clean us up from time to time..because this ole world does it’s best to get us all dirty..and yucky so to speak..and pretty much we can tell when we begin to drift away from Jesus..doing our own thing in life..we know when we need to find our place before the Lord and ask for His forgiveness..and ask of Him to clean us and wash us..to make us whiter than snow..Isaiah 1:18..Amen..so we can’t help ourselves when it comes to the Lord..and for His forgiveness..and for His healing..over us and our lives..only Jesus can do that for us..that is why the Lord sent His only begotten Son..that whosoever will believe in Him would not perish but have everlasting life..1 John 4:9/John 3:16..Amen..for God says if you call upon His name you would be saved..Romans 10:13..Amen..because the only way to the Father is through the Cross and accepting what He did there for you and for me..Amen!”

“For Jesus is the only way..the truth and our life..John 14:6..for we never can have a life without Him..it’s when we come to Him that we begin and start our lives..because at that moment that’s when Jesus comes into our hearts..and He begins walking this pathway with us..leading us and guiding us along the way..correcting us and teaching us as we go..Amen..for the Holy Spirit of God is our teacher..John 14:26..He is our nearest and dearest friend..for the Lord says He teaches us everything it is that we need to know..so never think that you have to get better..or be better..or act better..or even do better before you decide to come and start following Jesus..making Him Lord over your life..for as the song sings and as the songs says..”Just as I am, without one plea, But that Thy blood was shed for me, And that Thou bid’st me come to Thee, O Lamb of God, I come! I come, Just as I am, though tossed about, With many a conflict, many a doubt, Fighting and fears within without, O Lamb of God, I come, I come, Just as I am, and waiting not to rid my soul of one dark blot, to thee whose blood can cleanse each spot, O Lamb of God, I come, I come, Just as I am, poor, wretched, blind, Sight, riches, healing of the mind, Yea, all I need, in Thee to find, O Lamb of God, I come, I come! Just as I am, Thou wilt receive, Wilt welcome, pardon, cleanse, relieve, Because Thy promise I believe, O Lamb of God, I come, I come, Because Thy promise I believe, O Lamb of God, I come, I come..Amen!”

“So the Lord wants us just as He did that thief on the cross..He wants us just as we are..Amen..He wants us to come to Him..He loves us..and He is always patiently waiting for us to come to Him..and to live on forever with Him..Amen..so if you don’t know Jesus as Lord..today is the day that all of that can change..for today the bible says is the day of salvation..2 Corinthians 6:2..never put it off..because this is the one thing that we never want to wait on..and that is giving our lives over to the Master..the Creator of all..Jesus..Amen..for we want to live forever and all eternity with Him..and He is the only way that we can do that..so call upon Him today..let Him know that you need Him and that you love Him..ask of the Lord to forgive you of your sins and to come into your heart..and at that moment He will..and He will start right there with you..holding your hand as you begin this journey of a lifetime..with Jesus Christ our Lord..never will He leave you..and never, ever will He forsake you..Deuteronomy 31:6..for He will be your everything..so make Him your everything..and begin today living the best life that you can ever live..for it is in His name, Jesus’ name, that I do ask and pray..Amen and Amen..Be blessed today my dear sweet friends and remember wherever you go and whatever you do, Be a light for our Father, Much love to you all, Mandi
