Message
Joyce was so joyful as she thought about the change in her life after she became born-again. With gratitude in her heart, she said “Lord Jesus, thank You for the sacrifice You made for me at Calvary”. Indeed, things are now different with Joyce. She no longer tell lies, fight and disobey her parents. These changes were not known to only Joyce, but also seen by her parents, siblings and friends. What a glorious change Calvary provides for all!
Calvary, Calvary, yes Calvary! It was at Calvary that Jesus died for the sins of the whole world. Then He provided forgiveness, peace and eternal life to all who would turn away from their evil doings and come to Him believing on Him as the only Saviour. Everyone, small or great, young or old can have the forgiveness, freedom from sin, sickness and many more that Calvary provides. Do you still live in sin? Ask God to forgive you, then you too would be able to enjoy the forgiveness and the new life in Jesus Christ like Joyce. Do not enjoy this alone, tell others about the changes that happened to you and show them the way to Jesus Christ.
