JESUS TO THE RESCUE

"And in the fourth watch of the night Jesus went unto them, walking on the sea. And when the disciples saw him walking on the sea, they were troubled, saying, It is a spirit; and they cried out for fear. But straightway Jesus spake unto them, saying, Be of good cheer; it is I; be not afraid."

Matthew 14: 25-27
King James Version

Paul E. Kretzmann wrote a beautiful hymn about our Saviour's protection "WHEN UPON THE RAGING WATERS".

"When upon the raging waters, In the dark and stormy night, The disciples hard were toiling, Weary with the losing fight; When their hearts were filled with terror, And their fears would not be laid, Then the voice of Jesus cheered them: It is I, be not afraid!"

I have heard Jesus saying to me many times when I was afraid "Joanne, I am with you and will never leave you". What a healing balm it is to our weary battle scarred heart to know that Jesus is with us and will never leave us.

Ludie D. Pickett wrote a beautiful hymn about our Saviour "NEVER ALONE". I'm so glad to know that Jesus is always with us no matter where we are or what we are doiing.

"I’ve seen the lightning flashing, I've heard the thunder roll. I’ve felt sin’s breakers dashing, Which almost conquered my soul. I’ve heard the voice of my Savior, Bidding me still to fight on. He promised never to leave me, Never to leave me alone!

No, never alone, no never alone, He promised never to leave me, He’ll claim me for His own; No, never alone, no never alone. He promised never to leave me, Never to leave me alone."

What a privilege it is, and it is a privilege to be saved and go to Heaven to live in the mansions Jesus has prepared for us when we die.

Have you made your reservation for Heaven? Do you know for sure you are going to Heaven when you die? If not, please give your heart to Jesus right now. Don't miss out on spending eternity with the One Who loves you so much He suffered and died for you.
