OUR FAITHFUL SAVIOUR

“So that we may boldly say, The Lord is my helper, and I will not fear what man shall do unto me. Jesus Christ the same yesterday, and to day, and for ever.”

Hebrews 13: 6, 8 King James Version

Have you ever dreaded going to see somebody because you never knew what kind of mood the person was going to be in that day? Jesus never changes. We can depend on Him to always love, comfort, encourage, forgive and understand us. He is the same, yesterday, to day, and for ever. He rejoices with us when we are happy, and He cries with us when we are hurting.

If we will stop worrying about what man is going to say or do to us and concentrate on obeying God, we will have a lot less heartache and turmoil in our lives. The Bible says that when our actions please God, He makes our enemies to be at peace with us. (Proverbs 16:7 King James Version) Why are we so concerned about what people think about us? Our goal in life should be to make Jesus happy.

Jesus protects us today just as He did yesterday. He is our faithful Saviour. He loves us today just as much as He did when He died on the cross for our sins. When Jesus tells us something, we don’t have to question Him or doubt if He means it. He tells us to trust Him for everything, yet so often we fail to trust Him. How it must break the heart of our Saviour to be doubted and questioned.

What kind of mood are you in when someone comes to see you? Do people have to wonder if you will be loving and kind, or if you will be hateful and critical to them? We should strive daily to love others with the love of Jesus. Let’s be faithful to tell others about Jesus and His love for them.
