I will start this blog post by saying,” Thank God for his mercy and grace.” I was on this earth for many years before I actually met Jesus, and then he had to come to me because I never would have gone to Him. After all, I did not know He existed. This post is for people who do not know that Jesus exists.

It is hard for me to believe I was walking around on this earth thinking I knew about Jesus when, in fact, I did not know him at all. I was friendly and kind to the people I met because it was the right thing to do. I went to the worship services with my wife on Sundays, and again, on Wednesday nights, I usually paid for my tithes.

I never enjoyed attending religious worship services because I never got anything out of it. It was just a tedious few hours, but I did not complain because I knew my wife enjoyed it. I never told my wife or any of the other church members that Jesus was not a living being because I knew they believed he was.

I was like the Apostle Thomas because I never would have believed that Jesus existed if I had never personally met him. Do other people think that Jesus lived without personally meeting him, or did they meet him?

When I say meeting Jesus personally, I mean the two of you become one; you share the same internal organs. I mean, the two of you share everything. The problem with that situation is I could not hide anything from Jesus, although I wanted to.

I do not know if God put me in that awful place or if he allowed Satan to put me there. I will not tell you where it was, but believe me, you do not want to go there. I do not know how I got there or how long I was there, but when I realized where I was, I was about 15 feet from hell’s door.

When I was in that awful place, Jesus came to me. I wanted to hide from him but I knew there were no hiding places. So, I sat there or stood there; I do not remember which one. I was looking lonely, sad, and stupid. That is when Jesus approached me, and we became one.

That is when I first realized Jesus was a living being; that union changed everything. My eyes were open for the first time in my life. I wish that had happened many years earlier, but he did not come to me earlier because of my unbelief.

Back before I met Jesus, I had a wife and raised four children; after meeting Jesus, I realized I was not a Godly person. I did not know love, so I could not show love to my family because I had no love to show. For all those s years, I thought I was decent, but in reality, I was wicked.  

Now I know some of the things I did and how I treated my family and friends were not the right thing to do. I did not have Jesus in my life back then, so I made a lot of bad choices. I wish I could change them, but it is too late; all I can do now is ask for forgiveness.

As I stated earlier, I wished Jesus had come into my life earlier, although I did ask him, but since I did not believe he existed.  But when he did come into my life, I did not ask him then either, but he still came into my life.

I think Jesus is going to go to all of the lost people because most saved people met Jesus through religious preaching, religious teachings, and other means, but that does not work for people like me. I want you to know no matter how bad a sinner you are, Jesus will come to get you, and when he comes for you, do not turn him away.
