Just like the Great Gasby

Luke 15:4 (NIV) "Suppose one of you has a hundred sheep and loses one of them. Doesn't he leave the ninety-nine in the open country and go after the lost sheep until he finds it?
I watched the movie adaptation of F. Scott Fitzgerald's novel; The Great Gasby yesterday. The movie was about a man who fell in love with a lady he couldn't marry at the moment because he did not have any money. By the time he made money, she had married another person.
In a bid to attract her, he bought the biggest house opposite hers across the lake and would throw the most lavish parties in town with the hope that she would one day come to the parties. He kept throwing these parties for 5 years before he saw her again.
Beloved, it is the same way with Jesus, He will not stop reaching out to you until you come back to Him. He is so crazy about you that He was willing to die for you. He misses you and He longs for the time when you would wake up in the morning and talk to Him.
Of the millions of Christians all over the world, Jesus can feel your absence, you are important to Him, the body of Christ is not complete without you, don't harden your heart, come back to Jesus today. Do you know that the moment you come back to Jesus, heaven celebrates? You are important and crucial,Jesus loves you.
Say after me; Dear Jesus, I come back to you today, forgive my sins and cleanse me by your blood. I believe you died for my sins and rose on the 3rd day. I acknowledge you as my Lord and Savior from now on.
Beloved, if you said that prayer, the rejoicing has began in heaven. You will begin to notice that your life will improve from this moment on. God bless you
