ALL THE TIME

“Teaching them to observe all things whatsoever I have commanded you: and, lo, I am with you alway, even unto the end of the world. Amen.”
Matthew 28:20 KJV

Evangelist Daniel Webster Whittle wrote one of my favorite hymns “Moment by Moment”.  The words in this inspiring hymn are so true.  “Never a trial that He is not there, Never a burden that He doth not bear, Never a sorrow that He doth not share, Moment by moment, I’m under His care.”

What a healing balm it is to our weary battle scarred heart to know that Jesus is with is all the time and bears all of our burdens and shares our sorrows.  Even when we go through dark valleys and crises, we can know that He is with us and will help us and carry us until the pain goes away.

Someone said “I went through a dark valley and I did everything I was supposed to do but I didn’t feel a thing”.  I submit to you on the authority of the Word of God that when Jesus is with us, it is impossible not to smile once in a while even if our heart is breaking and we are going through dark valleys.

My Mother died on Christmas day several years ago and it was very hard to celebrate Christmas and be happy.  One day I realized what better gift could I give Jesus for His birthday than my beloved Mother.  Thank God for our tender loving and compassionate Saviour Who really cares about us.
