Billy Graham from Lexington, KY, on April 28, 1971

I’ve seen men spend their lifetime

making money and I know some of the

richest men in America and I know how

miserable some of them are I’ve seen men

strive all their lives to attain

political power and they get political

power they get the office they were

seeking but it doesn’t bring the peace

and the joy and the happiness and the

fulfillment they thought it would but

here’s an interesting thing I’ve never

seen a person give their lives to Jesus

Christ sincerely but what they didn’t

find what they were looking for he

satisfies the deepest longings of our

hearts in our lives I wonder how many

more sermons it would take to win you to

Christ how many more warnings will God

have to give you and how many more

graves will have to be dug how many more

Wars will have to be fought

how many more earthquakes or tornadoes

and floods we’ll have to come before you

make your decision the thief on the

cross took that one moment and said Lord

remember me and in that moment jesus

said thou shall be with me in paradise

that quick you can make your decision

and commit and remember God loves you he

has a plan for your life your sinful

you’re separated from God by sin and

some of the results of this sin or worry

and irritability and like a purpose in

life as well as some of the gross

immoral sins that we read about God has

provided the cross as a means for you to

be forgiven of sin but you must

individually receive Christ as your Lord

in your sake you and you alone in the

quiet arena of your heart will have to

make that decision
