WE NEED JESUS ALL THE TIME

"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."

John 15:4
King James Version

Minnie B. Enlow wrote the beautiful hymn "ABIDING IN JESUS". I love the words in this hymn.

"Jesus, Thou rock of ages, O let me hide in Thee; Into Thy very bosom, Under Thy shadow be.

O help me, precious Savior, To ever abide in Thee; O may Thy Word so precious Abide supreme in me.

Jesus, my precious bridegroom, My heart is fixed on Thee; O keep me ever watching, And keep me always free.

Jesus is coming quickly To gather home His own; Into His glorious kingdom, To sit upon His throne."

There are times when we try to do things by ourself and then we wonder why we can't do them. Jesus tells us why 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.

Let's swallow our pride and allow Jesus to help us. Not only will we be able to do what we want to do, we will make Jesus happy. Making Jesus happy should be the goal of everyone. He has done so much for us.

I love You so much, dear Jesus, and I look forward to the happy joyous day when I will have the privilege of seeing You face to face Thank You for all You have done for me especially for coming to me when I couldn't go to You.
