A RACE TO WIN

She was a young girl, she had nothing to live for at the time she was born, she was quite a little girl, but growing up on the streets, she faced a great odeal, she went through thick and thin, she walked the streets everyday in search of purpose the thoughts of heart
questioned her reason for being
what was I born for
what am I living for
why am I here
who am I
what is the ecssense of my life.
in her quest for purpose. she woke up at night sat right in front of her window by 2:00Am, Right there across the window,she saw a bright light in the form of a man
frightened in her heart she stood up about to close up the curtains and there she heard her name
SARAH!
SARAH!
she didn't even respond at that moment fear had gripped her heart, she was so afraid, she wonder, what could that be, in the form of a man and this ungodly hour. 2:00Am.
then she heard again the light spoke in calmness and gentleness of voice.
I Am he who made you
I have made you and brought you into this world for such a time as this.
I Am your purpose for living
look up to me for I am the Way
I am the truth and I am the life
I have come to make you a wonder
and give your life a meaning
from today you will walk with me and I will make you perfect.
As soon as SARAH heard this she started to walk towards the light but then it disappeared.
Sarah immediately stepped inside the house and found a book titled THE BIBLE
Sarah stayed up all night and she read from chapter to chapter, she was so glued to the book from 2:45Am up until morning 8:00Am she was so shocked at the Revelation and insight it gave her, she also came across the beautiful verse
Romans 10:9-10 (KJV) That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved.
For with the heart man believeth unto righteousness; and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation.
she wondered how do I confess
who am I confessing to
who is this person.
what do I say. she continued to Read through
she came across another verse
2 Corinthians 5:17 (KJV) Therefore if any man be in Christ, he is a new creature: old things are passed away; behold, all things are become new.
she wondered
but who is this christ
how come I have never heard of him
immediately as she flipped over to the next verse she saw a note that said
Trun over, she quickly turned over and there she saw please say this prayer.
Here was the prayer she said with all her heartshe said: Lord Jesus I believe in you
with all my heart
And I confess with my mouth
that Jesus Christ is the lord of my life
from today, I declare that I am born-again
I am now a child of God
thank you lord for saving my soul.
thank you dear lord Jesus.
Sarah started to weep uncontrollably as tears rolled down her eyes. she wept from 8:50Am to 10:00Am In the morning. then she heard a knock on her door it was her friend Juliet it was time for 10:00 lecture with Mrs frida.
Sarah opened the door quickly and juliet came in, she found sarah's eyes swollen.
Juliet said to Sarah
why are your eyes swollen
Did you even sleep at all
where you crying
what is that book in your hand

As speechless as Sarah wasshe looked at the bible in her hands and she raised it up and she said to Juliet I have found my Reason for being
I have found the Reason why I was born
I know why I came into this world.
I have found the one who gives life's a meaning his name is JESUS.
she and juliet broke into tears and they both ended up not attending Mrs FRIDA'S CLASS.
