What Would You Do If You Couldn't Talk to God Anymore?

A couple of weeks ago at church, our pastor was teaching us that when we pray, we should pray to the Father through Jesus, the Son. I had been in the habit of praying to both Jesus and Abba Father and thought a lot about this.

When the part of the service came where we go to God in prayer, I thought about praying directly to Father God, and something kind of scary happened. I suddenly thought, "What if I were unable to talk to Jesus, my friend, AT ALL?"

Tears began streaming down my face as I realized that this is what it would be like to die without accepting Jesus as my Savior - in other words, to go to Hell. This is what it would be like to be forever separated from my precious bridegroom, Jesus, and Father God; to be unable to communicate with them EVER again.

If you are reading this and you are unsaved, please take heart and take heed on the eve of this day we celebrate the birth of our precious Jesus. The King of Kings who stepped out of Heaven into the earthly world as a tiny baby - who grew as we grew and felt how we felt; who grieved as we grieve and loved as we love. The Alpha and Omega who did all of this for each one of us, so he could intercede for us when we pray, telling our Abba Father exactly the way we are feeling when we ask for something in prayer. Then as a precious, perfect Lamb, was sacraficed on the cross for our sins, when it should be each of us in His place. He did all of this just so we could bridge into Heaven - all because of Him, because of Jesus' love for us. Take a moment to pray and ask for forgiveness, and ask for Jesus to lead your life.

It's not about works, it's about Jesus.
It's not about trying to be perfect, it's about Jesus.
It's not about religion, it's about Jesus.
