You Matter to God - Belinda Ruzario
You are not just a "number." God knows your name and knows your heart. You matter to God and Jesus wants to meet you wherever you are at in life and minister His grace to you. You certainly matter to Him.

3 Reasons Why You Need Jesus
Jesus loves you! He desires to have a relationship with you, and to give you a life full of joy and purpose. Why do you need Him in your life?
Jesus loves you! He desires to have a relationship with you, and to give you a life full of joy and purpose. Why do you need Him in your life?
1. Because you have a past.
You can't go back, but He can. The bible says, "Jesus Christ is the same yesterday, today and forever." (Hebrews 13:8). He can walk into those places of sin and failure, wipe the slate clean and give you a new beginning.
2. Because you need a friend.
Jesus knows the worst about you, yet He believes the best. Why? Because He sees you not as you are, but as you will be when He gets through with you. What a friend!
3. Because He holds the future.
Who else are you going to trust? In his hands you are safe and secure today, tomorrow and for eternity. His word says, "For I know the plans I have for you... plans for good and not for evil, to give you a future and a hope. In those days you pray I will listen." (Jeremiah 29:11-13 TLB)
If you'd like to begin a personal relationship with Jesus today, please pray this prayer:
““Lord Jesus, I invite you into my life. I believe you died for me and that your blood pays for my sins and provides me with the gift of eternal life. By faith I receive that gift and I acknowledge you as my Lord and Saviour. Amen.””
If you have made this commitment and would like to make contact with a local Christian or if you do not feel ready to make this decision and would like further help from a local Christian, please contact us.
Testimony - Sue Bennett
The testimony of Sue Bennett.
After becoming a Christian, I found out that God is interested in every part of our lives and that it says in the Bible that we should cast the whole of our cares (anxieties, worries and concerns), once and for all on Him, for he cares for us affectionately and cares about us watchfully. (1 Peter 5 verse 7.) (The Amplified Bible)
When my Grandmother died I was devastated as it was the first time a close family member had died. The people at my gran's church and also those at mine prayed for the family and me. It was then that I experienced a wonderful peace and joy which remained after the funeral and through out the mourning period.
The Bible says "Blessed be the God of all comfort who comforts us in all our tribulation"(1 Corinthians 1 verses 3 and 4)
During labour at the birth of our daughter I found that for some reason I could not push her out of my body. My husband who was with me was praying over me in tongues but eventually the baby had to be delivered with forceps.
Back in my room I was feeling very depressed and a complete failure. I reached for my Bible.
Of all the pages it fell open at Isaiah 66 and the verse that met my eyes said, 'Shall I bring to the moment of birth and not cause to bring forth?' (verse 9)
This I took as a token from the Lord that He was with me and had used the doctors and nurses to deliver my baby.
At work some years ago we were expecting a visit from a district inspector. We were all feeling rather nervous. A nursery is supposed to provide a stimulating atmosphere in order to create a sense of awe and wonder in the children. To our delight the butterflies which we had kept from eggs emerged from their chrysalises as the inspector arrived.
He is the God of all wonders! Psalms 77:14.
Testimony - "I am a Child of God"
The testimony of 11-year-old Smyrna Joseph and how God spoke to her.
“Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation; the old is gone, the new has come.” 2 Corinthians 5:17.
My name is Smyrna Joseph. I was born into a Christian family and from my childhood my parents taught me about Jesus. I never used to bother to listen or pay attention when it was prayer time or time for church. I used to be in my own world all the time thinking only about myself…!
On 9th August I went with my mother to church. It was a normal fasting prayer meeting which we always have on Tuesdays. So we went there and I invited one of my friends as I knew I would get bored.
My friend and I were sitting at the table colouring and one of church member got a text saying that the rioters where in Manchester and had destroyed a few shops. So my friend and I got very scared, we starting saying what if they came to Wythenshawe or came to us, because Manchester city centre is very close.
Before going home Pastor Mike gave very encouraging word from Psalm 91: 14-16. “Because he loves me, “says the Lord, “I will rescue him; I will protect him, for he acknowledges my name. He will call upon me, and I will answer him; I will be with him in trouble, I will deliver him and honour him. With long life will I satisfy him and show him my salvation.”
So the prayer meeting finished and we went home. On the way home in the car we were passing the Forum we all saw gangs and gangs of teenagers, and police were there getting ready, putting on all their protection gear, and getting their guns. My friend and I got so scared looking at everything we got terrified and started to cry.
On the way home on the motorway we were still in shock and very upset. Then Aunty Angela said, “Up there in the clouds there is an invisible fight going on between the angels and demons, how can we support God when he sees his daughters crying? He promised that He would protect you and God must be thinking my daughter's don’t believe in me!”
These words made us more calm. We reached home and I was still scared but not as much as before. My friend and I were sitting in the bed watching the news and my friend said what if Jesus comes now because it is the end days? So, I got scared and starting thinking what if Jesus does come and it is Judgment Day? What will happen to me? I don’t want to go to hell! Will I go to HEAVEN or HELL? We both started to read the Bible.
Immediately I went and said to mum, “Mummy I want to accept Jesus into my Life. But at the same time I don’t know because I have fear in my heart. My mum read the Bible and prayed for both us. My mum told us to remember as God promise “Do not be afraid, for I am with you”. Isaiah 43:5. But because of my fear my mum spoke with pastor mike to pray for me. After Pastor Mike prayed for me he arranged some Bible teaching for me with Aunty Angela. This comforted my heart.
That day when I prayed the sinner’s prayer all the fear went away and new joy came into my heart. That was the moment I accepted Jesus as my personal saviour.
I came home and told my parents. They were very happy. As days passed by I wanted to get baptised and Pastor Mike helped me to understand what it meant to be baptised. I believed that Jesus died for me on the cross and shed His blood for me; He washed away all my sins and went into heaven to prepare place for me.
On 11th September 2011 I took water baptism. The Bible says, “Having been buried with Him in baptism, you were also raised with Him through faith in the working of God, who raised Him from the dead.” Colossians 2:12.
I am very thankful to Pastor Mike and Aunty Angela for teaching me. I will always remember both of you as my spiritual teachers. I thank God that He has saved me. I am proud to say, “I AM A CHILD OF GOD.” Hallelujah….!
