THE LOVING ARMS OF JESUS

“The eternal God is thy refuge, and underneath are the everlasting arms: and he shall thrust out the enemy from before thee; and shall say, Destroy them.”

Deuteronomy 13:27

King James Version

Frances J. Crosby wrote a beautiful hymn about our precious Saviour “Safe in the Arms of Jesus”.  I love these words in this inspiring hymn.  “Safe in the arms of Jesus, Safe from corroding care, Safe from the world’s temptations; Sin cannot harm me there. Free from the blight of sorrow, Free from my doubts and fears; Only a few more trials, Only a few more tears!”

It is very important that we allow Jesus to help us no matter what we are doing.  So many times we try to do things in our own strength and then wonder why we can’t do them.  We read in the Bible.  “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).

Jesus is able to carry us through all the dark valleys in our life and He will be faithful to set us once again on the  mountain top of happiness.  When He was here on His mission, He grew tired and got discouraged so He understands how we feel when we get tired and discouraged.  Allow Jesus to carry you through all the dark valleys in your life.
