We’re quite familiar with these lyrics. You’re probably singing the next words of this song in your mind right now.
It’s a message, a song that speaks to us tenderly with comfort. And it’s true,so true!
“...For I hold God and His Son in great reverence! Jesus, the Son of God, is the source of eternal life through God’s grace John 3:16."
I am humbled by their presence, when I pray. After all, the Creator of all we see asks me to cast my cares upon Him, listens when I pray, and cares about me. He loves you and me so much, that He sent Jesus to earth to die for our sins, to save us from the consequences of our sins! Praise God.
And His son, Jesus the Christ, is not just our friend. He’s our Best Friend! Christ’s role in our salvation from sin did not end on the cross. He still seeks our salvation! Jesus acts as my intercessor today, tomorrow, and as long as I live. He speaks to the Father on my behalf on your behalf too.
The song reflect on how Jesus gives me strength along life’s long road!! Perhaps my favorite bible verse is Philippians 4/13: “I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me.” The Apostle Paul wrote these.
Words to the Philippians from prison. This apostle found strength in Christ, which helped him overcome his challenges. While we may not suffer trials or the magnitude as did this apostle, we will suffer many many trials in this life! When confronted with earthly challenges, which may seem insurmountable, I am comforted and strengthened by this promise. I pray to Jesus, and He strengthens me. I am not alone, for He knows what I face and cares for me.
A song that tells me what life is without Jesus. A tour of the daily news shows tells us. We see great travails in many reports: crime, violence, suicides, abuse… a world without Jesus! But life lived as a disciple of Christ is full of comfort, happiness, accomplishment and purpose. Jesus gives meaning to life. Our days on this earth are guided by serving God. The choices we make, when guided by Him, bring us joy, happiness, and purpose. Each day we begin with a choice. Will we serve Him or not? If we choose to follow God and His son, we will have purpose and reward. Our time in life is short. We must make a choice between good and evil.
Our lives will have meaning and happiness, if we follow Him.
Jesus gives us an example to follow! He faced trials and temptations, just as do we. But He conquered each and every one! “ For we do not have a High Priest who cannot sympathize with our weaknesses, but was in all points tempted as we are, yet without sin.” Hebrews 4:16
His life on earth as a man gives us a perfect example to follow. When He was tempted, he refused to sin. We should do the same.
WHY I LOVE THE SONG
I love the song because it reminds me that I am never alone. When life hands me challenges, troubles, or travails,I have a friend in heaven above,who cares and is just a prayer away.
