THE FAITHFULNESS OF OUR SAVIOUR

“Let your conversation be without covetousness; and be content with such things as ye have: for he hath said, I will never leave thee, nor forsake thee.”

Hebrews 13:5 KJV

Have people ever told you they would do something for you but they didn’t do it?  Have you ever felt lonely because people had to go home?  Jesus is with us all the time.  He told us that He would never leave us or forsake us.  What a healing balm that is to our weary worn battered heart.  Jesus is so faithful to us.

Are we faithful to Jesus?  When we are going through dark valleys and are tempted to give up and stop serving Him, it is then that we need to cry out to Jesus and ask Him to help us.  He understands how we feel because He too was rejected; lonely, discouraged and abused when He was here on earth.

There are times when we try to do things without asking Jesus to help us but He has told us that we can’t do anything without Him.  “I am the vine, ye are the branches: He that abideth in me, and I in him, the same bringeth forth much fruit: for without me ye can do nothing” (John 15:5).  We have a faithful Saviour.

May God help us to be faithful in our service to Jesus even when we feel like giving up and don’t think we can give another smile.  Jesus doesn’t condemn us because we are tempted to stop serving Him.  He loves us unconditionally.  There is nothing we could do that would make Him stop loving us.

O how I love Jesus.  He is the reason I live, the reason I get out of bed and the Joy of my heart.  I have many wonderful friends but they have to leave me and go home.  Jesus has never left me, not even for a minute.  Thank You, Jesus.
