It's free.

The other day in physical science, we were in groups...and two of my classmates brought up the subject of religion. Lately, it seems I just can't help myself when this topic comes up....I just have to say something. One of the group members said that she is agnostic...she said that she isn't atheist but she just doesn't know what to believe. To me, it seemed like she is searching...for something, and I don't think she even knows what it is. Finally, without even thinking I said, "You are more than welcome to come to church with me." She kind of laughed, to which I replied, "For real." She responded, "Don't try to sell me on the whole church, Jesus, and religion stuff." I'm not sure what came over me, but I replied and said, "I'm not trying to sell you anything, it's free."

It's free.
The love of God is free.
The forgiveness that Jesus offers is free.
The unreal and simply incredible way that God can change you from the inside out is free.
Totally free.
The restoration Jesus offers is free.
The joy and peace that comes from knowing Jesus is free.
Having the knowledge that there is a God that loves you and cares for you is free.
It's free.
Absolutely positively free ... no strings attached.
100% free.

Maybe you are searching for something and maybe you don't even know what it is ... Remember that sometimes you don't know what you are looking for until you find it. My prayer for you is that it may be Jesus. Because Jesus can be the something that you are looking for ... and Jesus can go from being the treasure you found to being your everything. I know I can say without a doubt that Jesus is everything to me.

It's free. And it can be all yours.
