Thoughts on Jesus

Thinking of a song written by Cory Asbury... this goes dedicated to my mother whom I admire with all that I am. I love you mom.

"You are my hope, you are my song, you are my life, you are my salvation.."

Jesus is our hope... for every morning when we wake up and we feel that the burden is so hard to take it. He is our hope for every night, too, when we wonder if the next day would be like the day that has just gone by. Jesus is our hope for our every minute, for our every second of our lives. He is hour hope also for our darkness. He comes. He shows up. He is never late. He is our hope for our kids and future generations. He is taking care of that. He is our hope for when humans, even our own family, fail us once and once again. He is also our hope for when we are joyful and rejoicing. All the time, He is our hope.

Jesus is our song...for when we can't remember the melody or rhythm of life anymore. He is our song for when what surround us does not evoke any melody at all. He is our song to helps us sing again. He sings to us every day if we can listen. He is our song even for when we are singing, because He gives us reasons to sing. Jesus is our song.

Jesus is our life. He made life possible for us in every sense of the word. He makes our lives worth living for. He brings life when all we can see is a valley of death. Do we really realize how deep and true is this? There's absolutely NOTHING more besides Him. He has given us all we have, including a heartbeat. He has changed our eternal destination from death to life for ever. He promised that He WILL heal us and make us new. It doesn't matter how He would do that, what it really mattes is that He will do it! Jesus is our life.

Jesus is our salvation. He saves us from ourselves. He saves us from our selfishness and our weaknesses. He saves us from our desire to control everything and not let Him guide us to the best path. He saves us when we are tired of fighting on our own. He even save us in our deepest joy. His first nature is to save because He is love. His love saves us. Simple. Deep. Let's let this true sink on us. Jesus saves and the only and true salvations comes from Him. Jesus saves.

AMEN
