Episode Details

In Luke 23:39-43, we see two men also crucified beside Jesus Christ, one hurling insults, mocking Him even in his final breaths, saying, “If You are the Christ, save Yourself and us.” 

It wasn’t a cry for mercy; it was defiance. But the other thief, something awakened in his heart. He said to his friend, “Do you not even fear God?” In pain, yet clear-eyed, he saw the truth. And these words came from his lips: “Lord, remember me when You come into Your kingdom.” 

He had no theology degree, no time to be baptized, no moment to join a church group. He just turned in his heart toward Jesus. And that was enough. 

Have we made it too complicated today? All God requires of us is an honest heart. Turn to Him today. Lay aside every excuse. Simply call on His name and say, “Lord, remember me. Save me.” 

It’s time to pray.
