There was a movie a few years ago called “The Horse Whisperer.” It’s about this man who has an amazing ability to gentle horses—horses that it seems no one else can tame. In fact, the main character was modeled after a real man whose skill in gentling and training wild mustangs is almost legendary. In the past, people have used some pretty brutal methods to force a horse into submission. But the real horse whisperer doesn’t “break horses.” He uses body language and, yes, some quiet talking as his tools to gentle a horse that otherwise would be uncontrollable.
The things we’ve done because of the untamed animal inside us are the things that now make us feel ashamed and dirty inside. The things that hurt most the people we love the most. But through the years, millions of men and women have experienced the miracle of the animal that once controlled them being brought under control by the Master—that’s Jesus Christ. No religion, even Christianity, can tame the animal inside us. It can only give us good things that we can do to feel better about the bad things we do. No, it takes the power of the only man who ever walked out of His grave under His own power. It takes Jesus.
But Jesus doesn’t force His way into your life. He leaves the choice to you. Your new freedom, your new “clean inside” awaits your saying to Jesus, “I am Yours. You are my only hope.” If you’d like that day to be today, I want to invite you to go to our website, and there I think you’ll find a simple explanation of how you can be sure you belong to Jesus and you have been forgiven by Him. The website is yoursforlife.net. Or I’d be glad to send you my booklet about this called Yours For Life if you just call and ask for it at 877-741-1200.
When Jesus comes aboard, His peace settles over your life, and it tames what no one else could tame.
