STILL ALIVE

"And he saith unto them, Be not affrighted: Ye seek Jesus of Nazareth, which was crucified: he is risen; he is not here: behold the place where they laid him."

Mark 16:6
King James Version

Jesus rose from the dead and He is still alive. Yet, there are times when we act like He is still in the grave. Bill and Gloria Gaither wrote the beautiful heart touching and inspiring hymn " Because He Lives". I love these words. "And because he lives I can face tomorrow Because he lives All fear is gone Because I know he holds the future And life is worth the living Just because he lives."

May God help us to act like Jesus is still alive and to keep serving Jesus no matter how many times satan tries to discourage us. I'm sure we hurt Jesus and break His heart when we don't trust Him to help us. Jesus wants us to be happy. We read in the Bible "The thief cometh not, but for to steal, and to kill, and to destroy: I am come that they might have life, and that they might have it more abundantly". (John 10:10).

Thank You, Jesus, for loving us, for dying for us and for never leaving us. What a healing balm it is to our weary battle scarred heart to know we can trust Jesus and that He will never leave us. O how I love Jesus!
