My Loving
Savior
by
Barbara Philbrook
I have
this loving Savior, I know for sure that this is true,
and if you will ask him he will become your Savior too.
You see
the plan was made even before creation began,
that's when it was decided that Jesus would be born in
the form of man.
God knew
that man would fall to sin the price of which was death,
that sin was committed by the very first man into which
God put his breath.
And each
and every one of us is also guilty of sin,
and here is where the most precious story of love does
begin.
Life on
this earth is just for a while,
there's another life that will be lived in the grandest
style.
This other
life about which we may read in God's word,
is filled with love and joy far greater than we have ever
heard.
Jesus left
that wonderful place where he lived with God in Glory,
and in so doing took the first step in the salvation
story.
Jesus
lived a sinless life as he taught others the true meaning
of love,
he never sinned or caused any regrets to his Father
above.
He healed
the sick and caused the blind to see,
but more important he taught us that we are to trust in
God totally.
He taught
us that God is the source of all that we need,
and that if we will just learn to rely on him we too will
succeed.
We were
shown that we are never tempted beyond what we can bear,
and that whenever we find ourselves in need of his
assurance he is always there.
We learned
we must treat others as we would like to be treated,
and that anyone who calls on Jesus will not be defeated.
We are to
share with anyone who will listen to us tell the story,
all about Jesus and how he came from Glory.
There's
the part of the story that for me is the hardest to tell,
and that is the part where if they don't accept Jesus
they'll end up with Satan not for a short spell!
But for
all who will accept and ask Jesus into their heart,
there comes the most glorious and exciting part.
I get to
tell how Jesus took on the sins of the world,
and how the plan of salvation was fully unfurled.
You see
Jesus died that You and I might live with them in
Eternity,
and it's a gift he gives to us completly free.
All that
you must do in order this gift to receive,
is call on God and tell him that you believe.
Now
accepting Jesus does not mean that life here will be
gloriously easy,
no as a matter of fact this will upset Satan and he's
really sleazy.
But that's
not any thing about which we have to fear,
because even though we can't see him our God is near.
So come
along and join our family,
and we'll all go home to be with God for Eternity !!
