ETERNAL LIFE

I greet you with the peace of the Lord. Today, Friday 23 February 2024, the short message I want to convey to you is inspired by a verse that is written in:
I John 5:13 (NIV)

“I write these things to you who believe in the name of the Son of God so that you may know that you have eternal life.”

In life here on earth, people are all constantly searching for truth, love, wisdom and reasoning. In trying to find these elements, they learn to understand that everything only makes sense when looking beyond the boundaries of our temporality. This journey is a process of learning to open the eyes of the mind to fix our eyes on Jesus and through Him we will taste eternity stretched out before us in His abundant mercy and grace.
Research has been developed and projects carried out that have attempted to answer the five questions: who, what, when, where and why about God, but nothing in this universe could be able to define our Lord Jesus. No one accepts Jesus after doing of research and academic studies. It is impossible to fully know an eternal God from a human perspective. It takes forever to know an eternal father. But precisely for this reason we have faith and the truth is revealed when we, in faith, receive Jesus into our hearts. It only takes a second to make this decision, to profess in faith that He is our personal Lord and Savior, but the impact of this lasts for eternity.
It is by faith that we live in Christ, this is the first step that allows our mind to open. It is by the faith we have in Jesus Christ that we gain new life, new perspective, new hope, new new love! Faith becomes our first and last step until we see Him face to face one day. Faith is also all the intermediate steps, which continues to fuel the continuation of our journey to eternal life.

Together we pray to the Lord telling him: God in heaven, thank you for what you have done for me. I desire to live forever in Your presence. Help me to live a life consecrated to You. In the name of Jesus... Amen!
With love, Ivano Salerno
