Excitement For A Lifetime

                                             Matthew 9:2
                 "Son, be of good cheer; thy sins be forgiven thee"


        Can you remember the times in your life that were filled with "excitement," and I'm not talking about joy, by being surprised by a Birthday Party, or gifts, or after your first date?  No, I'm talking about excitement that is life changing.
        My wife Janet, shared her most exciting moment with me a few weeks ago.  She was driving home from church, and she had just gotten saved.  Now this happen December 8th 1996!  As she was driving, a feeling of overwhelming burst of joyous excitement over came her, of what she had just received from Jesus Christ; "A New Birth And Life Eternal."  She was so excited about being forgiven for her sins, She was asking God to take home now!  Janet was so excited she could not wait, and wanted to meet her Savior Jesus Christ.  Well she is still here, and still excited.  That my friends is,  "Excitement For A Life."
        And Jesus seeing their faith, said unto the sick of palsy; Son, be of good cheer; thy sins be forgiven thee (Matt. 9:2).  Jesus said this to the man that was crippled with palsy, because He knew the mans heart, plus the the faith of his friends.  Here his sickness was no longer and his sins were erased.  All that saw this marveled, and glorified God. 
        Our Lord fills us with joy and shows us ever lasting love in our walk with Him.  But the most excitement you will ever have is when you realize all that you have received, and what to look forward to in the next life; which will be eternal.  It is an overwhelming burst of joyous excitement.  "Excitement For A Lifetime!!"  
        Amen!!
