Born to Transform
by Pastor George Pearsons
What was your life like before Jesus?
What is your life like now?
I am sure the difference is like night and day. We have all struggled through the darkness of not having a personal relationship with Him. Then, one glorious day, we made Jesus The LORD of our lives, and everything began to change.
I clearly remember the day I was born again. I was 19 years old. While attending art school in Boston, strangers were continually witnessing to me on the streets. The WORD preached finally took root, and one day I simply said, “Jesus, come into my life.” At that moment, I could sense a wind blowing through me. I literally felt lighter. What happened to me? I became a new creation in Him (2 Corinthians 5:17). I became the righteousness of God in Christ (2 Corinthians 5:21). That was in 1972. My life has been completely transformed since that time. I am one very grateful pastor!
Jesus was born to transform our lives into something good, wonderful and magnificent. Looking back, I can tell that Jesus was chasing after me. He loved me so much, He sent people to share the gospel with me. He was doing what He was born into this earth to do. Luke 19:10 in the "New Living Translation" says, “The Son of Man came to seek and save those who are lost.” I was lost. He loved me and sought after me. He saved me and He totally transformed my life.
He has sought after and transformed so many people, including one I didn’t know about until very recently.
