THIS IS SOMETHING I AM THANKFUL FOR EVERY DAY, AND WANT EVERYONE TO KNOW THAT THIS CAN BE THE SAME FOR YOU TOO. NOTHING WE DO OR SAY CAN SAVE US, BUT WHEN WE COME TO JESUS "JUST AS WE ARE", HE CAN NOT ONLY CHANGE US, BUT MAKE OUR LIVES SOMETHING BEAUTIFUL!! HE CAN DO THE SAME FOR YOU, IF YOU'LL ONLY TRUDT HIM AS SAVIOR. PLEASE DON'T PUT IT OFF BUT DO IT TODAY!!

Good memories flooded my mind as I sat in a concert. The group’s leader had just introduced the song they were about to sing: “Just As I Am.” I remembered how years ago at the end of his sermons my pastor would ask people to come forward while we sang that song, indicating they would like to receive the forgiveness Christ offers for their sins.
But the leader of the musical group at the concert suggested another occasion when we might... sing this song. He commented that he likes to think that when he dies and goes to meet the Lord one day, he will sing in thanks to Him:

Just as I am, without one plea
But that Thy blood was shed for me,
And that Thou bidd’st me come to Thee,
O Lamb of God, I come!
Years before writing this song, Charlotte Elliott asked a minister how she might find the Lord. He told her, “Just come to Him as you are.” She did, and later during a discouraging time of illness, she wrote this hymn about the day she came to Christ and He forgave her sin.
In His Word, the Lord encourages us to seek Him: “Seek the Lord while He may be found, call upon Him while He is near” (Isa. 55:6). He calls to our hearts: “Ho! Everyone who thirsts, come to the waters . . . . Incline your ear, and come to Me. Hear, and your soul shall live” (vv.1,3).
Because of Jesus’ death and resurrection, we can come to Him right now and will one day go into eternity to be with Him forever. Just as I am . . . I come! -Anne Cetas
Let him who thirsts come. Whoever desires, let him take the water of life freely. —Revelation 22:17
