Encouragement

HE SAID HE WOULD DO IT AND HE DID.



He told me I could be anything I wanted to be,
So I believed HIM.

He told me I could climb the highest mountain if I wanted to. So I did.

He told me He would never leave me, that He would be with me always. He is.

HE is the only one that I know that never breaks His promise or my heart.

He told me if I believed in Him and I believed in myself all things are possible. So I do.

He told me to persevere, to never give up, even when everyone else around me does.

He told me when people turn their backs on me, never to turn my back on Him. HE told me that people would hate me for no reason, but He would always love me.

He makes me feel special. With Him I know I can be or do anything. When I feel sad He makes me happy. When I cry, He wipes away my tears and puts them in a bottle. He comforts me and tells me I am His.

He is by far the greatest love I could ever hope or wish for.

I remember when I was having rough times and needed a helping hand. I went to Him and He directed my path. He gave me a wonderful family and beautiful Friends.

Oh the nerve of some as they sneered at me trying to make me wimp or break, Hey what they didn’t know was that with Him I can never be broken. You see He is my strength when I am weak. He is my source when I am without. He is my joy when I am sad. He is my protector when I am afraid. He is my covering when I am out in the rain. He is my sunshine when I am cold. He is my everything.

Truly what can this world do to me when I have Him? Through Him I have learned to persevere through my toughest obstacles. With Him I have learned never to give up. With Him I know that if I am willing to trust Him with my all and all, than I will always stand tall.

I was searching for all this stuff and I obtained much of it. Yet I still felt empty. Than I began to search for Him. The more I searched the fuller my cup became. He took away my emptiness and made me whole.

Materials things come and go, but He never goes. Materials things may give you joy for a moment, but He will give you joy forever. His peace surpasses all of mankinds understanding. Many may say they love you. Yet they disappear into the night never to be seen again. His love never disappears. It is forever.

He told me He would give me the desires of my Heart, if I would only seek Him. He told me I am the Head and not the tail. He told me all things are possible with Him. He told me I am like a tree planted by a river that will give forth fruit in due season.

He told me all those wonderful things. And the best part of it was that He told me the truth. He never lied to me.

I BELIEVE HIM. I TRUST HIM. HE IS ALL I NEED. WITH HIM I CAN DO ANYTHING.

HE SAID HE WOULD DO IT AND HE DID. HE IS THE GREATEST!

HE IS JESUS CHRIST, MY LORD AND SAVIOR, THE LOVER OF MY SOUL!
