27 Years Ago Today

Twenty seven years ago on a cold November night, I sat at a concert by an obscure band name Oasis in upstate New York. I heard a guy in a blue leisure suit explain the truth of Jesus to me, and learned for the very first time that Jesus loved me and died to pay for my sins so I wouldn’t have to. This guy told me that Jesus wanted to live in my heart and make me brand new, and I recognized the offer of a lifetime.

That night, 27 years ago today, I asked Jesus to forgive me, lead me & make me His son. Nothing on earth compares to what Jesus did in me in that moment: He made His home in my heart and radically changed me from the inside out. And I have never recovered.

Thank you, Jesus. I love you.
