This was given to me by the internet. I was at my sister's house at the time and I felt compelled by the Spirit to have her make me a copy, in which I am going to share with you right now. This is how it read:

I almost threw this away. But I decided to read it till the end. It's not important who I am. I am but a messenger sent with an important letter for all of mankind. To whomever will read this. Intrigued? Well then please read on...

I'm glad I did!

Continue but only if you've got time for God.

When I received this message I thought, huh! God? I don't have time for this! This is inappropriate to talk about. But then I got to thinking that this sort of talk is exactly what has caused a lot of the problems today in our society. Not to mention the world.

See, we try to keep God only in church but do not try to make time for Him any other day of the week. Or and we sure like to have Him around if we're sick or hurt. And of course at funerals. But when we are strong we make excuses not to include Him. And we sure don't like to talk about Him to others. No way! During these times we think we can handle things on our own, without Him. Not putting Him first in our lives has become a big thing today. We should always make the time to thank Him for all He has done for us on a daily basis.

Are you ashamed to take a minute now and do this? Jesus said, " If you are ashamed of Me, I will be ashamed of you before My Father. " Are you ashamed then to even speak His Name? To someone, anyone out loud? For all you so called Christians out there Jesus has this test for you. It begins now:

Do this one simple task for Jesus to proclaim you are not ashamed of Him or that you believe in Him.

1. You are to first read the rest of this.

2. Send 10 people that you know to this webpage. At the bottom of this page is the link to this page. Are you now willing to go up to them and tell them to go to this site? This must not be anonymous. People need to know Jesus. Right here, right now! If you are not willing to do this read this no further but if you will carry this burden upon your shoulder than you shall be blessed by God. Do you believe in the Lord? Are you willing to show it? He is the only source for your existence and He saved you on the cross. He asks very little of you in fact.

3. You must not send this first to people you know for sure have a relationship to Christ. That would just be too easy. Do the non-believers first, then you can show your Christian friends. If your not sure they know Christ tell them. They can be counted as one of your 10 people. You can read the rest of

this letter, but to 10 people will you commit? Read on...Also for unbelievers so that they can get saved.

Without Jesus I could not function every day. Without Him I am nothing and can never be something. Phil 4:13

I can tell you this for sure, I love God the Father and His Son Jesus with all my heart, and I had no problem doing this little task for Him. It's sad but I can't recall 10 people who would openly show Him in this way that they believe and are willing to do this for Him. Remember that His Son Jesus saved you from death in Hell. That is something to celebrate about! See all day long I used to not have the time to spread the Good News around. The internet makes it easy now. I'm so glad He chose me to do this work.

A POEM:

I knelt to pray today but not for long. I had just too much to do. I had to hurry and get to work. All my bills would soon be due. So I said a very fast prayer. It is hard for me to speak to others about Him. They might laugh and make fun of me. No time, no time. Too much to do!But alas we all will die and have to face Him one day. Some sooner than others. And when we die we will stand before the Lord. Oh my I noticed His downcast eyes. And in His hands He held a great book. It was the Book of Life. God looked into this book then He looked at me. He said, " Your name I just cannot find. I once was going to write it in but I just didn't have the time:

So now, can you find some free time for Him? Non-Christians please read this to the end. Please read on...

Why is it so hard to talk to others about the Truth? Because there is a liar out there that's why. Someone who wants us all to go to Hell and will stop at nothing to see to it that we do. But Jesus stopped him in his tracks when He died on the cross. Satan lost the war. But he is still turning so many away to believe his lies. Don't be one of them. God knows the evils in this world. He sees all we do. I know you might think why doesn't He step in? But we have to live by free will. A gift He gave us. The devil will not stop this page! He has already tried but failed to prevent me. Circles upon circles and wheels upon wheels. The Father's Kingdom will be preached and I will have become one of these many circles started. You too can become a part of this dance. Please say a prayer for the one who has put this page together. Non-Christians please keep reading. Your eternity is at stake! Without us reaching others. My 10 people and your 10 people, none would get the message of Jesus. Every tongue will confess and every knee shall bow. There is so much power in His Name! When I first got this I handed out 10 letters to my 10. You can make copies from this page. I give you permission if you need to mail this to someone who does not own a computer. I mailed all but one. That letter I gave to a complete stranger. You too, if you do not know 10 people can make 10 copies of this to give to 10 strangers but please hand it to them in person. Or you can email this to 10 people you know, not email to 10 you do not. That makes it too easy. Too cowardly. The brave soul hands it to them. At the end of the book of John Jesus asks Peter, " Do you love Me? More than these? " Peter replies, " yes Lord. " Then Jesus asks him again, " Peter, do you love Me? " Again Peter replies, " yes Lord. " Then Jesus asks him a 3rd time, " Peter, do you love Me? " Peter is a bit disturbed by now. But he says, " yes Lord. You know that I do. " Jesus then tells him, " than feed My sheep. " Jesus is asking you too, to feed His sheep, if you say you love Him. If you do than do what He asks.

This message is filled with truth and light. I was very blessed by it. I hope that whomever this letter reaches that not too many will steer away from this page before reading it. Jesus gave such a precious gift. His life so we could have a life eternal with Him.

Here is a story to touch many:

This is a true story too. About a Pastor by the name of George Thomas who lived in New York. One Easter Sunday he came bringing a bent up old bird cage with him for his congregation. He had a message for them about it. He set it by the pulpit. Everyone there was curious about it. The pastor then began to tell him what had happened to him yesterday as he had been walking through town. He noticed this boy coming his way swinging and carrying this old birdcage. Inside this cage were little wild birds the boy had caught. They were quite pathetic looking birds, shivering from the cold and from fright. There wasn't much beauty to them. The pastor stopped the lad to ask him about them. " What you got there son? " " Oh just some wild birds, " the boy replied. " What are you planning to do with them? " The pastor asked him next. " Oh, " thought the boy. " Take them home and have some fun I suppose. I'll tease them. Pull out their feathers. I've got some cats and when I'm finished I'll let them eat them. " The pastor was a bit upset. He didn't want harm coming to those birds, as stupid as they were he didn't want that to be their end. The pastor was silent for a moment. It was obvious this boy had no concern for these tiny birds. So the pastor reached into his pocket and pulled out a $10. " How much you want for them? " He asked. " Huh? " The boy said. The boy eyed the $10. " You can have them for the $10, " he said. So the pastor bought the birds from him. The pastor then took the cage with the scared birds inside and went around to an alley where there was a tree. He opened the cage and lightly tapped on the bars until the birds flew out from it and away to freedom and safety. And so that explained the empty birdcage now the pastor had by his pulpit.

Here is another story:

One day Jesus and Satan were having a discussion. You see Satan had just come from the Garden of Eden gloating over the fact that he'd just caused Eve and Adam to fall, thus cursing all of mankind. He smiled knowing the heirs of the earth had no way of gaining an eternity in heaven with God, now that they had fallen. Every man born would fall away too now because of it. He was just a laughing and carrying on about it. " Man it was so easy. I set a trap and ended a whole civilization's hope. It's all over for Mankind now. I used a bait they just couldn't resist. I got em, I got em. Got em all. Not a one is righteous!They all are mine. " Jesus now replied, " ok, so what will you do with them all now that they are yours?" Satan smiled his meanest and nastiest of grins. " That's the fun part! First I'll show them all about sex and how they just got to have it! No marriage required. The rate of divorce will sure last longer than any marriage vows. And I'll personally teach them my favorite. How to hate their neighbor and be abusive to their children. The men hitting the women. Mothers a killing their babies even before they pop out from their wombs! I'll show them how to start wars. To drink and take drugs. Smoke so that they can give themselves cancer to die sooner. I will show them how to invent guns and bombs so they can go blow themselves up. Oh I just love it! I can hardly wait. A whole world down there completely mine! " Jesus then asked, " when your finished killing their human bodies, what about their souls? They are eternal. " Satan looked at Him and He could tell this part was his most favorite of all. "Why when their souls come to me I will see to it that they are completely destroyed, conscious but completely without hope in Hell! They were so easily fooled by all my fairy tales. Reincarnation, false eternities with their false gods. My favorite lie was for them to believe that all get into Heaven regardless of their dirty deeds. All the suicides I gave false hope of oblivion, a way out from their pain. Oh what pain they knew is nothing compared to hell! I live for the shocked looks that always comes across their stupid faces. They think they are going to a better place but it's far worse instead! Worse than they could ever dream or put in a movie. " Satan gloated all the more now watching Jesus' face. All His creation gone flushed down the toilet instead. " Ok, so how much do you want for them? " Jesus then asked. Satan had hoped He would. The softhearted jerk that He was. His fondest wish was about to come true. He held back for the moment all savvy. " Oh, you won't want these people any longer Jesus. After I'm done with them they'll be so messed up no shrink in Heaven could ever cure them. All they will do is deny even You after You've come and tell them who You are. They aren't worth it, believe me. They will only hate You not love. They will even come to curse You. They will want to kill You and one who will be very close to You will even betray You to me. They will do everything in their power granted them to see that You die. No, You don't want a people like that. " Satan told Him shaking his head. " How much? " Jesus then asked again. Satan became more serious now. He had wanted this for so long. " It will take all of Your blood pouring out, your tears and Your heart broken, and then Your life! I want Your life! " Satan roared. Then Jesus replied, " Done! "

And then He paid the price...
