The news of your decision to follow Jesus is a cause for celebration in our global family of faith. Today, you stand at the threshold of an extraordinary journey, one that intertwines your life with a worldwide tapestry of believers.
With your newfound faith in Christ Jesus, you've become a child of God (Bible, Book of Galatians 3:26, NLT). You are now part of a global family, a community bound by our shared love for Jesus. It's an incredible connection that transcends geographical and cultural borders, an embodiment of the divine love that God has for each of us.
Just as a caterpillar metamorphoses into a butterfly, your faith in Christ marks a remarkable new beginning. The Apostle Paul wrote, "This means that anyone who belongs to Christ has become a new person. The old life is gone; a new life has begun!" (Bible, Book of 2 Corinthians 5:17, NLT). You are stepping into an era of transformation and hope, basking in the warmth of God's infinite love.
However, it's essential to remember that the path of faith, while beautiful and rewarding, may also present trials and moments of doubt. In these times, lean on the comforting words of Jesus, who invites us all: "Come to me, all of you who are weary and carry heavy burdens, and I will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you. Let me teach you, because I am humble and gentle at heart, and you will find rest for your souls" (Bible, Book of Matthew 11:28-30, NLT).
Nurture your faith through daily prayer and explore the wisdom that the Bible holds. Engage with a local church to connect with other believers and build a supportive community that will aid your spiritual journey.
Open your heart to the work of the Holy Spirit in your life. As our divine Advocate, the Holy Spirit teaches us and reminds us of Jesus's teachings (Bible, Book of John 14:26, NLT).
Once again, we welcome you to this remarkable family of faith. You are embarking on a magnificent journey with Jesus, and we are here to support and accompany you each step of the way. We look forward to witnessing the incredible work God will do in and through you.
With blessings and joy π π
Your Comewithus Family!
