Jesus Wants You

In you, Lord, I have taken refuge; let me never be put to shame; deliver me in your righteousness. Turn your ear to me, come quickly to my rescue; be my rock of refuge, a strong fortress to save me. Since you are my rock and my fortress, for the sake of your name lead and guide me. Keep me free from the trap that is set for me, for you are my refuge. Into your hands I commit my spirit; deliver me, Lord, my faithful God. (Psalm 31:1-5)
 
One of my favorite quotes is, “You don’t know Jesus is your all until all you have left is Jesus.” Have you ever been there? Seemingly everything and everyone have been stripped away, and all you have left is Jesus. There is nowhere to go and no one to turn to except for Him. It may sound like a sad place to be, when everything and everyone are out of sight. You would be amazed at how Jesus ministers to your heart and to your spirit when all distractions and idols have been removed from your life.  
 
I have found that I discover my uniqueness and purpose when I come to Christ first. I find peace in the midst of storms, and I find comfort in my eternal security because of Christ.  
 
As much as we try, we will never find the peace, comfort, joy, love, and acceptance that we are looking for in anything or anyone apart from Christ. He is the only one who can give us these things. He is the only one who can meet our needs and satisfy our desires. He is the one and only Savior we will ever need.  
 
If you are searching for peace, love, support, and healing, don’t look any further. The Lord Jesus Christ is all you need, and He won’t let you down! Let Him be your one and only refuge. Run to Him, and leave everything else in the rearview mirror.

Before I gave my life to Christ I felt like I had a piece of a puzzle missing. I kept looking for who I was but couldn't find what I was looking for. Once I gave my life to Christ I found. myself and the love Jesus has for me and so much more 💓

Did Asking JESUS to Come into My Life, immediately change me. NO ! It's been a ever changing 40 years. I Would Not have made it this far Without JESUS. He's been there for Me every minute. Thank YOU FATHER ! PRAISE JESUS.
