"Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you and learn from me, for I am gentle and humble in heart, and you will find rest for your souls. For my yoke is easy and my burden is light."
—Jesus (Matthew 11:28-30)
There it is. Jesus’ invitation to us is clear: Come to me. No matter where we’ve been or what we’ve done, he makes the same invitation to each one of us. He invites us to come to him by faith.
Your response to him may begin something like this:
“Jesus, here I am. I know I’ve fallen short, and I’m trusting in you to forgive me. Thank you for dying to pay the price for my sins. Thank you for promising me life and a relationship with God. Amen.”
From our experience, we know this is not a journey to take alone. If you have taken this first step and placed your faith in Jesus or if you have questions, we would love to hear from you.
Once you've made this most important decision in your life, we encourage you to take part in classes as well as small groups offered at Lakeside, to begin the process of living your life of faith following Jesus Christ.
