Today's Gospel 
John 3:7-15

Reflection 
To be born again is not a religious experience but a truly spiritual one. When we come to Jesus Christ and ask Him to forgive us ,the Holy Spirit comes into our spirit and brings it to life. We are then born of both flesh and Spirit.
 
Jesus came into the world and gave up His life to bring freedom from sin, to forgive us and to give us a new life in which God comes first. We can't be saved by a religious experience, a ritual,or a spoken prayer alone. To be saved means casting everything aside and  trusting Jesus to pay the price for our salvation. It is a life change based on a decision that we  will follow Jesus in everything we do.

Let us pray 
Lord Jesus, we come to you now to lay our whole lives at your feet. We confess the things we have done that are wrong, and we ask you to forgive us. Thank you for dying for us on the cross.
Amen.
