Jesus is the Only One


Jesus is the only One who can see the deepest secrets in your soul and not love you any less.
Jesus is the only Friend who always seeks to be with you, even when you push Him away.
Jesus is the only Person who hangs onto every word you say, even when what you say reflects the inherent sinfulness of your soul. 
Jesus is the only One who hangs on to your hand, even when you let go of His.
Jesus is the only Guide who gives direction even when you don't listen.
Jesus is the only Savior who died to save your soul, even when you were yet a sinner.
Jesus is the only Counselor who gives counsel even when you don't esteem His counsel highly.
Jesus is the only One who looks for you even when you aren't seeking to be found.
Jesus is the only God who never gives up on you even when you have given up on Him.
...Why, then, is it, that we, though being loved so marvelously, seek to find solace in the mediocre things in life? 
Friends, Jesus is the One who satisfies all the cravings you will have in your lifetime!

Jesus SAID "I am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me."

Every Girl's Battle

I walked all alone down the leaf-strewn sidewalk, my hands in my pockets. A dark figure came out of the shadows and walked towards me. I could not make out who it was, but I sensed an evil about him -an evil that threatened my beautiful surroundings. And then he spoke in a forceful tone. "You had better face it. You are alone, and it will always be that way. Nobody really loves you. You just think they do. Really, though, you are alone." I tried to fight back the tears as the reality of his words sank in. Was it really true? People seemed to like me, but really, did they? It seemed true enough. I was all alone in this world. Nobody really wanted to know what I had to say or think. It was just me, and that was it. Deep in thought, I failed to notice that the dark figure had left me to think about his lies alone.

A Secret Weapon

As I sit here, getting ready to share with you the biggest thing God has been doing in my life lately, I must start by being real. It is so easy to sit back on a morning when I feel no battles, no struggles and just live like I don't think I need God. Other days its so easy to worry about life and think about every detail of everything and wonder if it's going to be ok. Still other days, I find myself listening to Satan’s lies and believing him even though I know they aren’t true. Do you find yourself doing those things too? Why does Satan lie to us? Why is it that life seems"easy" one day, and then the next is the hardest ever? Let me help you out with this…

When Life Hurts...

Recently, I went through a very painful experience. The death of a dream I had thought was coming true. The loss of something I thought I had gained permanently. Never had I experienced something so difficult before. Never had I guessed that this was going to happen to me. ...But it did. And it hurt. I praise God for His healing power at work in me... As I write, I write not only to you, but to myself as one who is learning on this journey too.  This morning, as I was reading in the Psalms, I came across a Psalm that hadn't stood out to me in this way before. As I read, I realized that I was looking at me in the mirror of God's word.
