Joanne Lowe's Meditations

EVERY MOMENT
 "Teaching them to observe all things whatsoever I have commanded you: and, lo, I am with you alway, even unto the end of the world.  Amen."
Matthew 28:20 (King James Version)
      Not only is Jesus with us every minute, He is also with us every moment.  Evangelist Daniel Webster Whittle wrote a beautiful hymn that describes the faithfulness of Jesus to us "Moment by Moment".  How comforting it is to our weary and battle scarred hearts to know that Jesus is with us every moment.
      "Never a trial that He is not there, Never a burden that He doth not bear, Never a sorrow that He doth not share, Moment by moment, I'm under His care".  Let the words of this hymn enter your heart and realize that you are never alone.  Jesus cares about you and He loves you more than you will ever know.
      Jesus is not only with us every moment on earth, He will be with us in Heaven for all eternity.  What a precious promise it is to know that we will see our precious Saviour face to face when He comes back for us.  He is not coming for a visit.  He is coming to take us to live with Him.  How this should encourage our hearts!
      We only have just a fingernail's grasp of the wonderful amazing and unconditional love Jesus has for us.  Have you ever really thought about how much Jesus loves you?  He loves you so much that He stayed on that cruel cross when He could have come down.  There is no love like the love that He has for us.
      Heavenly Father, You are the God of all comfort and You love us.  You love us so much that You sent Your beloved Son into the world to die for our sins so that we may have the privilege of being saved.  Thank You for loving us.  Amen.
