The three men who were crucified together that day had never met before but when the thief asked Jesus to remember him when He came into His Kingdom, Jesus said “You will be with Me in Paradise today”. He didn’t need to know about his background or any of his personal history. All Jesus needed was his faith and his belief in Who He was. That is all He needs from you today if you will believe like the thief on the cross.
