YOU ARE UNIQUE
58,789,194 - that's the number of UK inhabitants counted by the census of 2001: 28 million men, 30 million women
OVER SIX billion human beings live on earth today. The six billion barrier was passed in October 1999, according to United Nations statisticians. In little more than a generation, the population has doubled (it was at three billion in 1960).
That's six billion people needing food, shelter and clothing. Six billion individuals waking and sleeping, working and playing. Six billion men, women and children searching for meaning and purpose to their life.
Is it any wonder that we sometimes feel overwhelmed? Is there a place for ME? Do I matter to anyone?
The answer is "YES". God the Father, the creator of the universe, has plans for your life. Through Jeremiah the prophet, the Bible tells us they are 'plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future.'
Jesus Christ, God's son, died on a cross 2,000 years ago so you could enjoy that future.
Will you accept His offer?
Pray this prayer:
Jesus, I want to belong to You. Please forgive me for all the times that I have pushed You aside.
I want to get to know You, and the Father, and the Holy Spirit.
I want to enjoy the gift of life to the full.
Thank You for forgiving my sins and giving me a fresh start.
Help me, Jesus
