Tag Archives: the Life

Back to the Blog

My words are a bit rusty, but I am back to writing.  I love being able to record in a somewhat public sphere things that God shares with me, and things that He shows me in every day life. “This is all my hope and peace, nothing but the blood of Jesus” This hymn is easily one of the most powerful ever written.  Nothing but the blood of Jesus. NOTHING.  Jesus tells us that He is the way, the truth, and the life.  He is the source of all things that we have.  When we begin to truly live by this truth, we can experience life in a completely different way.  That girl doesn’t like my shirt? Oh, thats a bummer, but my value comes from the Lord.  Oh that person didn’t want to ask me out on a date?  That’s alright because my worth comes from Jesus’ work on the cross.

Sometimes, when things don’t go my way, I try  to feel sorry for myself, and I honestly try to cry, and be sad.  I feel the lies of the enemy that I am not good enough, unworthy of love, unworthy of affection.  But Jesus doesn’t let me believe the lies.  He doesn’t let me feel pathetic and unworthy.  He declares into my heart that I am loved by Him, and therefore worthy of being loved.

I am lovely because He loves me.  This is all my hope and peace, NOTHING but the blood of Jesus.  Such a simple truth that, when declared every single day, can change your life so radically. God is so faithful, friends.  Pursue Him.

Jesus told him, ‘I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through Me.’ -John 14:6

Lord, You are my portion
and my cup of blessing;
You hold my future. -Psalm 16:5
