8 For it is by grace you have been saved, through faith—and this is not from yourselves, it is the gift of God— 9 not by works, so that no one can boast. 10 For we are God’s handiwork, created in Christ Jesus to do good works, which God prepared in advance for us to do. Ephesians 2:8-10
When we are down, He lifts us up. When we suffer in the throes of sorrow for a loved one who left us way too soon, He is there to carry you. As pain encroaches you He will fill your mind with the assurances of heaven. He breathes life into you where hopelessness once reign.
As you go about trying to find meaning in your life, Jesus waits patiently on the side hoping you will come to him. Whether it is burning incense or reciting mantras or cleansing your body of toxins, He wants no one to perish. He waits patiently while occasionally using others alive in Christ to utter words of hope into you.
He wants you to know that He's alive while the other so-called gods have died and remain buried. So many have followed false prophets without finding the true Christ. He wants you to find the true Christ! https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_people_claimed_to_be_JesusChrist. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_people_claimed_to_be_Jesus
The real living Jesus is as close to the living gospels of Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John! He is literally standing at the door of your heart waiting for you to acknowledge his presence in hopes you might open up that door to allow him to come in and experience life where once darkness, guilt, and sin prevailed.
All you have to do is cry out to Jesus and ask him to come into your heart just as Revelations 3:20 reminds us: 20 Here I am! I stand at the door and knock. If anyone hears my voice and opens the door, I will come in and eat with that person, and they with me.
Yes, Jesus is alive!
