WE CAN FACE TOMORROW

“And the angel answered and said unto the women, Fear not ye: for I know that ye seek Jesus, which was crucified.  He is not here: for he is risen, as he said, Come, see the place where the Lord lay.  And go quickly, and tell his disciples that he is risen from the dead; and, behold, he goeth before you into Galilee; there shall ye see him: lo, I have told you.”

Matthew 28:5-7 KJV

In the words of Bill and Gloria Gaither who wrote the beautiful and inspiring hymn “Because He Lives”, we can face tomorrow because Jesus rose from the grave.  It doesn’t matter how many crises we might have in our lives today our precious Saviour will help us and encourage us. 

Thank God for Jesus, our risen Saviour Who has risen from the dead just like He said He would.  I love the words in this beautiful hymn.  “God sent His Son, they called Him, Jesus; He came to love, heal and forgive; He lived and died to buy my pardon, An empty grave is there to prove my Savior lives!”

If you are discouraged and heartbroken, please don’t give up.  Cry out to Jesus and ask Him to help you.  He loves you so much He died on the cross for you and He will be faithful to carry you through all your dark valleys and set you once again on the mountain top of happiness.

What a privilege it is to be loved by the Saviour of the world.  One happy day, He is coming back for us and we will see Him.  O how I long for that day.  We will see Him face to face and we will also see our loved ones again.  What joy and what happiness will be ours for all eternity.
