I Love Jesus


I Love Jesus:

There's no place I'd rather be, than right here in Your arms, Jesus. There's no paradise more perfect than Your Presence. No water refreshes the way Your streams of mercy do. Not a single light shines as brightly as Your radiant beauty.

You complete my soul, You satisfy my hungry spirit. Each morning the sun rises and the first gleam of dawn glints on the dewy blades of grass... O how marvellously Your majesty marks this earth. I love You Jesus, for Your beauty is unsurpassable, Your glory is uncontainable, and Your power is immeasurable.

"The Son radiates God’s own glory and expresses the very character of God, and he sustains everything by the mighty power of his command. When he had cleansed us from our sins, he sat down in the place of honor at the right hand of the majestic God in heaven." (Hebrews 1:3)

I know I can place everything in Your hands. You are strong, mighty, and radically compassionate. You intercede on my behalf; You defend me! How comforting to declare! The Prince of Peace and Lord of lords defends me! I love You Jesus, for Your mercies are new for me every morning.

"Through the LORD’s mercies we are not consumed, Because His compassions fail not. They are new every morning; Great is Your faithfulness. “The LORD is my portion,” says my soul, “Therefore I hope in Him!” The LORD is good to those who wait for Him, To the soul who seeks Him. It is good that one should hope and wait quietly For the salvation of the LORD." (Lamentations 3:22-26)

Jesus, You're my portion and my delight. There's nothing this world has to offer me that could even begin to measure up to Your worth. Therefore, I have a secure and unshakable anchor for my soul, and I know that my hope is found in You and You alone. I will wait for You, my King. I will seek You, my Good Shepherd. I will praise You, my Gracious Lord. You're everything, and I adore You Jesus. Oh how I love my sweet Jesus.

Faith That He is Near Always

   One, of many things, for which I am very  grateful, is that the Lord is always near me. He is never far away. I can call on Him through prayer, and He will always listen. He genuinely cares for what I am worried about. No prayer is too small or unimportant, because we are God's children and He loves us all.    Call upon the Lord in times of need, and in times of joyfulness. He wants to commune with us. He desires our yearning for His presence. When we're longing for that "something more" He is the One that can satisfy. He is gentle and loving. He wants to be with you more than you can even imagine.    "The Lord is near to all who call upon Him, To all who call upon Him in truth." ( Psalm 145:18 ) It pleases Him when we reach out to Him in desperation. Because He is The Creator of all things that exist, when He is our passionate desire, When He is the One thing we need , that's when we are complete. That is when we have peace, joy, and abundant lif...

I Loved You at Your Darkest

I Loved You at Your Darkest: "While he was still speaking, a bright cloud enveloped them, and a voice from the cloud said, “This is my Son, whom I love; with him I am well pleased. Listen to him!” When the disciples heard this, they fell facedown to the ground, terrified. But Jesus came and touched them. “Get up,” he said. “Don't be afraid.” When they looked up, they saw no one except Jesus." (Matthew 17:5-8) In the first few verses of Matthew chapter seventeen, Jesus led Peter, James, and John up to a mountain top. It was just the four of them, or so the disciples thought. Whilst they were walking Jesus was "transfigured before them. His face shone like the sun, and his clothes became white as light." (Matthew 17:2) Today, this passage is really speaking to me. I feel like the Lord is using this passage as a reminder that sometimes we must fall "facedown on the ground" in complete awe of His glory and surrender to His mysterious yet miraculous ways. A...
