Because He Lives!

Because He Lives!  

Because our Savior lives, we live. Because our Savior died, we live. Because our Savior loves, we live. Because of our Savior’s sacrifice, we live. Because our Savior gave the ultimate gift, we live.

 We are the righteousness of God, because of who we are connected to. Because of our Savior, we have the opportunity to live an abundant life on this side. He freely gives us his Grace, Love, and Hope. Because our Savior lives, we can face all of our tomorrows, no matter how difficult our days get. Because our Savior lives, we have an Advocate who sits next to the Father and speaks on our behalf day and night! Because He lives, we live.

Do not be misguided or deceived! Today is the acknowledgment of our Resurrected Savior and everything He accomplished for the whole world when He laid down His life for all of us. I am blessed because Jesus is Lord over my life and He loves me unconditionally, and so are you.
I proudly profess that He is Lord over my life and will always be my risen Savior not just on Easter Sunday. I accepted Jesus as my Lord and Savior a long time ago and I am so happy and fortunate to Have Him as my Risen King!

Happy Blessed Resurrection Sunday everyone! 

I Am a Witness!

 I Am a Witness!

John 1 6-8 "There was a man sent from God whose name was John. 7 He came as a witness to testify concerning that light, so that through him all might believe. 8 He himself was not the light; he came only as a witness to the light."

What was John's main message? John's theme of life- eternal life, comes up again and again. One could argue this is his main purpose to demonstrate Jesus as the source of eternal life. 
I wanted to know more about John the Baptist, so I read a little more about his background to find out he was the cousin of Jesus and he was around before Jesus. He was sent by God to be a witness to testify concerning the Light (Jesus) so that through the Light, man might be saved.  My question to myself is this. Am I supposed to be a witness to the Light? The Light is Jesus, the one and only Savior of the world. The light of my life, Jesus Christ, the one who saved me and gave me eternal life. I can definitely testify to who the Light is to me.
I realize that my testimony about the Light of my life might help someone searching and looking for light, or someone who is ready to come out of darkness to embrace real change. Someone whose willing to believe there is Someone greater than humanity, someone who can make a difference in their life, someone who can shed or dispel all the darkness and help give meaning and purpose to their life. 
There is Someone who is pure Light and pure Love. Jesus has made a difference in my life and He has kept me sane when I felt I was going insane. He has been my Comforter when I needed to feel comforted and consoled. He has been my Friend when so many times in my life I have felt friendless and alone. 
I too, am a witness to the Light. My Light, my Savior is like no one I have ever seen or encountered before. I have come to depend on Him more than anyone or anything else in this world. There will never be anyone greater than the Light- the Savior whose name is Jesus! For those of us who will believe in Him, He gives us the right to become children of God. I suggest you read the book of John in the New Testament and get to know the Savior for yourself; do it while you still have time.
