WE NEED JESUS

"Abide in me, and I in you. As the branch cannot bear fruit of itself, except it abide in the vine; no more can ye, except ye abide in me. 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 15:4, 5
King James Version

Annie S. Hawks wrote one of my favorite hymns "I NEED THEE EVERY HOUR". However, I don't just need Jesus every hour, I need Him every minute. The words in this beautiful hymn are so true.

"I need Thee, O I need Thee; Every hour I need Thee; O bless me now, my Savior, I come to Thee." There are days when my arthritis hurts so much I just want to stay in bed so I really do need Him all the time. Without Jesus, we aren't living, we just exist.

Heavenly Father, thank You for giving Jesus to us to be our Saviour, our best Friend and Who never leaves us. I love You, Heavenly Father. Please comfort and encourage all who are lonely and hurting. In Jesus' Name, I pray. Amen.
