Best thing that ever happened to me.

Jesus is the best thing that’s ever happened to me, how about you?

You know we all have a life story. Pages full of life’s ups and downs. Anyone who knows me, knows that Jesus is between each line of pain, and glory, and it’s all because of Him, that I make it through. I don’t like to say I’m lucky. I like to say, “I’m blessed,” for all that I have made it through.

We all will have pain, and hurting times in our lives. But the more you grow in your relationship with Jesus, those moments of hurting become less, and less. Not that anything goes away, but you have begun to look to Jesus more and more. So the moments of loving Him, and putting your hope and trust in Him getting you through each gifted day, becomes a way of life, "for only He will release [our] feet from the snare.” (Psalm 25: 15).  

He is our stronghold. (Definition - A place of survival or refuge) Psalm 31: 4 “Keep me from the trap that is set for me, for you are my refuge.”

Life comes at you every way it can. The enemy is in on it, but Jesus is always there, "[He] arms me with strength and makes my way secure." (2 Samuel 22: 33).

Jesus is your hope, and He’s created in you a heart that lives in victory that He’s already won! He is our protection from the enemy. “You set me high upon a rock, and you defend my soul. And when their ways advance against me I am confident, that they cannot make me less, for You have made me whole.” These lyrics are sung in a song by Watermark.

What can make me whole again? Nothing but the blood of Jesus. What can wash away our sins? Nothing but the blood of Jesus. The blood of Christ NEVER loses its power.  “Unless you eat of the flesh of the Son of Man, and drink His blood, you have no life in you.” (John 6: 53).  

So as you walk through this life into eternity, glorify Jesus in the ways you overcome the ups and downs. It’s all because of Him! The best thing that can happen for you too. BELIEVE!

Grace and peace to you
