When Mahatma Gandhi was asked near the end of his life,.'Babaki, you have been looking for God all your life. Have you found him yet?' 'No', was the reply, ' I'm still looking.' Gandhi was a great man , but he never trusted Jesus as his Saviour. He was influenced by what Jesus taught, but never saw Him as the son of God. There are a number of things that put him off becoming a Christian, many of those who professed to be Christians for a start. It is a pity that he didn't look beyond them, to Christ Himself, after all He read the Bible, read the gospel's , why did he not then trust Christ? ,Of course we as Christians should show the reality of Christ in our lives, but it is not always so. There are many fine Christian's, but they are far from perfect, when one becomes a Christian, you are coming into a church of fallen human beings. Do not let anyone put you off becoming a Christian, no matter who they are,, remember one of the disciples Judas ,betrayed Jesus for money ,another one denied Jesus, his name was Peter. The history of the church is not a perfect history, but we have a perfect Lord, and a perfect Saviour. Look to Him alone, he is the prize, He will forgive you and save you, He will never fail you , nor leave you, He will always care for you and love you.
