Can I let you in on a little secret? Are you sure? It's a pretty big one! Well okay... if you insist... No one person is perfect or sinless except for Jesus. That's right, I said it. I am a sinner and I am far from perfect, and you, my friend, are in that same boat with me. No matter how many times we give our hearts baths in the Word of God, at the end of the day we are still sinners. The key thing about this is how we respond to this fact. We must respond by recognizing the reality that we are sinners and we need a savior. That savior is Jesus Christ, the way, the truth, and the life. There is this song that I love called I'd Need a Savior by Among the Thirsty. It goes like this:
How many names
Can I use to explain
The love of my Jesus
The life that He gave
And so many times
Will I praise You today
I lift up my life
Cause You're always the same
And my offering
To you I bring
Your name is Jesus
Your name is Jesus
You're the wonderful, counselor, my friend
You're what I hold on to
I know that You brought me through
All the days of loss and to the cross, You knew
That I'd need a Savior
How many songs
Can I sing to proclaim
Your wondrous love
Oh and beauty so great
Oh and, What would I say
If You brought down the rain
And everyday I walked through the pain
My heart would still say…
Your name is Jesus
Your name is Jesus
You're the wonderful, counselor, my friend
You're what I hold on to
I know that You brought me through
All the days of loss and to the cross, You knew
That I'd need a Savior
All the days of loss, and to the cross You knew,
That I'd Need a Savior
Well, I'd need a Savior
You're what I hold onto
I know that You brought me through
All the days of loss and to the cross You knew,
That I'd need a Savior
I'd need a Savior,
I need You Savior.
This song reminds us that we need a savior but in Jesus we have hope!! I am so thankful for the truth of John 3:16 and how it impacts my life everyday! I pray that as you read His Word you see your need for Jesus, the Savior! Let Him in and let Him rule in your heart!
Romans 3:23
For all have sinned and come short of the glory of God.
John 14:6
Jesus said to him, "I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man comes to the Father, but by me."
John 3:16
For God so loved the world, that He gave his only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him should not perish, but have everlasting life.
Colossians 3:15
And let the peace of God rule in your hearts, to the which also you are called in one body; and be you thankful.
