FROM DARKNESS TO LIGHT

"He answered and said, Whether he be a sinner or no, I know not: one thing I know, that, whereas I was blind, now I see."

John 9:25
King James Version

Jimmy Swaggart wrote "He Washed My Eyes With Tears". I love these words. I'm so glad Jesus loves us so much.

"He washed my eyes with tears That I might see. The broken heart I had was good for me. He tore it all apart And looked inside. And found it full of fear, So much foolish pride

He swept away the things That made me blind. And then I saw the clouds
Were silver light. And now I understand 'Twas best for me. He washed my eyes with tears That I might see."

Many years ago when I was going through a crippling and devastating depression, Jesus came to me. He put His arms of love around me and told me He loves me and will protect me.

There are no words to describe how I felt that day knowing Jesus loves me. Not only does Jesus loves me, He loves you. What a Saviour! What a Friend! I love Jesus so much.

Joseph Medlicott Scriven wrote the beautiful heart touching hymn "WHAT A FRIEND WE HAVE IN JESUS".

"What a friend we have in Jesus, All our sins and griefs to bear! What a privilege to carry Everything to God in prayer! O what peace we often forfeit, O what needless pain we bear, All because we do not carry Everything to God in prayer."

Thank You dear Jesus for loving us and for never leaving us. I love You. Thank You, Heavenly Father, for my beloved Pastor. Please encourage and comfort him. In Jesus' Name, I pray. Amen.
