Because He Lives
“How sweet to hold a newborn baby and feel the pride and joy he gives but greater still that calm assurance our child can face uncertain days because He lives.” ~ Bill & Gloria Gaither
I’m so glad I serve a living Savior. I would not want to go through this wicked world of trouble and trial without Him. More and more, I find myself longing to go Home but I know God has a plan for my life. He put me here for a reason and, because He lives, I can fulfill that purpose. Because He lives, I can offer hope to the hopeless; I can give encouragement to the downtrodden; I can testify to God’s goodness because He is not dead. He is alive!
No matter what you’re going through, God has not forsaken you. He cares about every minute detail. Sometimes His purposes are best fulfilled through trial and suffering. Don’t resent it but receive it as from His hand. As He extends His hand, reach out and grasp it. Know that His plans for you are not evil but good. Because He lives, you and I can live and we can continue to be a light in a dark and dreary world.
