OUR WONDERFUL SAVIOUR

“For unto us a child is born, unto us a son is given: and the government shall be upon his shoulder: and his name shall be called Wonderful, Counsellor, The mighty God, The everlasting Father, The Prince of Peace.”

Isaiah 9:6 KJV

Rev. Virgil P. Brock wrote a beautiful hymn “He’s a Wonderful Savior to Me”.  I love these words “He is always near to comfort and to cheer, He’s a wonderful Savior to me; He forgives my sins, He dries my every tear, He’s a wonderful Savior to me.”  Yes, Jesus is a wonderful Saviour.

Charles H. Gabriel wrote a heart touching inspiring hymn.  It is one of my favorite hymns “Precious To Me”.  These words are so true.  “So precious is Jesus, my Savior, my King; His praise all the day long with rapture I sing. To Him in my weakness for strength I can cling, For He is so precious to me.”

Yes, Jesus, our wonderful Saviour, is very precious to me.  He is the reason I’m living, the reason I get out of bed in the morning, and the song of my heart.  I love Him so much.  Do I hurt Him at times?  Yes, I do, just like you hurt Him at times.  We are only sinners saved by grace and by His redeeming blood.

May God help us to do things and say words that make Jesus happy.  If ever someone deserves to be happy, it is Jesus, the “KING OF KINGS AND LORD OF LORDS”.  Please join me in praising the One Who loves us so much He died for us.  O how I love Jesus!
