In reading chapter 3 in the book of John, I really had to go back through to see what it was God wanted me to gain from it. Pastor Kerry's coaching was helpful as well. 2 things that I take away from this reading. 1-While our earthly bodies are "born" exclusively at the very beginning of our lives, we are never too old, and thus it is never too late for our spiritual birth in Christ. And only by accepting, through our spiritual rebirth, God's free gifts of grace and salvation, can we be saved! 2-Religion will not lead you on the path towards heaven. You can not get there by knowing enough, by doing enough good throughout your life, our by giving enough of your time, talent and treasure. None of us can out give God. It is a relationship with Jesus Christ that will give our lives purpose and through which we may obtain everlasting life. Thank you God for love, patience and mercy.
God Bless you all.
