Goal #2: Discover Your Personal Jesus

Before God we are all equally wise - and equally foolish.
Albert EinsteinUS (German-born) physicist (1879 - 1955)


EVERY path may lead you to God, even the weird ones. Most of us are on a journey. We’re looking for something, though we’re not always sure what that is. The way is foggy much of the time. I suggest you slow down and follow some of the side roads that appear suddenly in the mist.

Goal #2 "Discovering Your Personal Jesus Christ"

"Personal Jesus"

Your Own Personal Jesus
Someone Who Hears Your Prayers
Someone Who Cares

Your Own Personal Jesus
Someone To Here Your Prayers
Someone Who Cares

Feelings Unknown
And Your All Alone
Flesh And Bone
By The Telephone
Lift Up The Reciever
I'll Make You A Believer

Take Second Best
Put Me To The Test
Things On Your Chest
You Need To Confess
I Will Deliver
You Know I'm A Forgiver

Reach Out and Touch Faith

Lyrics By Depeche Mode

It's hard to believe that a song from the early 90's would be a inspiration to change my life and hopefully yours as well, but it is even harder to believe that a band like Depeche Mode could come to terms and deliver a honest to god truth. I was born and raised in the Catholic Church, my entire life I was studying my faith, living a tradition, and upholding my supposed faith, only when I reached maturity did I come to understand that my faith was hollow. I was practicing something I didn't believe in , and the tradition was empty and meaningless. Because of this I walked alone, until Paul Shin taught me about the Personal Jesus.

Jesus Christ is your lord and savior
I will repeat myself
Jesus Christ is YOUR Lord and Savior

He is their, he does care, and he is behind your actions. A organized religion isn't always the answer to lifes questions, and it's not the only way to reach an eternity of peace and love, a afterlife in heaven with him can bring. The only thing that matter when you die, is the relationship you shared with him on earth. He doesn't care about your wealth, your fame, your education, he only cares that you care about him. He's the pre-game prayer, the post test beg for success, and he IS watching you and everything that you do, you just merely have to look for him and seek his advice.

What everyone needs is to develop thier Personal Jesus, find him in your own way and begin developing a relationship with him, its a step in the right direction, one of the most powerful teachings I can pass along is the end of that song

REACH OUT AND TOUCH FAITH
