NEVER

“Let your conversation be without coveteousness; and be content with such things as ye have: for he hath said, I will never leave thee, nor forsake thee.  So that we may boldly say, The Lord is my helper, and I will not fear what man shall do unto me.”

Hebrews 13:5, 6 KJV

When people criticize us, ridicule us, and curse us because we are serving Jesus, we never have to be afraid because Jesus is our Helper.  He will protect us and lift us up and carry us through all the dark valleys in our life.  What a privilege it is to be loved and protected by the Saviour of the world!

Has it gone from head knowledge to heart knowledge that Jesus has said that He will never leave you or forsake you?  When Jesus says He is going to do something, He does it.  Jesus never leaves us, not even for a minute.  Our family and friends come to visit us but they go home, Jesus stays with us.

Think about it!  Jesus said that He will never leave us.  Are you shouting with happiness yet?  This world is full of violence and we desperately need our Saviour.  He is faithful to us and doesn’t leave us no matter how many crises and dark valleys we have in our life.  I love You, dear Jesus.

Jesus doesn’t leave us but do we leave Him?  Do we allow things and people to come before Him?  If so, we are hurting Him and breaking His heart.  If ever someone deserves first place in our heart and life, it is Jesus, the KING OF KINGS AND LORD OF LORDS!  Give Him first place in your heart and life.
