Repent for the Kingdom is at hand

Thursday January 12th, Mark 1: 4And so John came, baptizing in the desert region and preaching a baptism of repentance for the forgiveness of sins. 5The whole Judean countryside and all the people of Jerusalem went out to him. Confessing their sins, they were baptized by him in the Jordan River. John offered them something. Life was filled with questions for which no one had answers. When they came to John they did not find answers, instead they found a journey. What they found was not someone to fix their problems, but someone to help them face their problems. Sometimes in facing our problems we can find answers. Sometimes all we find is awareness. Either way we win. John called them to repent; Jesus calls them to receive forgiveness and life eternal. What will you face today and how will knowing the Jesus offers forgiveness and eternal life make a difference in your life?
