Haven’t there been times when you have felt that there is no one who loves you, when you have felt alone and rejected. No one seemed to understand anything. Everything you tried to do and say went wrong. No one appreciated for all that you did. It was a tough time to hide the tears and cover it with a smile. It would have felt so difficult to show that you are strong to face the situation. Heart felt so burdened to think that no one loves and cares for you any more. Then God spoke to you or through someone and told to trust and hold onto Jesus. No matter what happens “Jesus Loves You” all the time and forever.
Do you remember the immediate gush of peace and joy that filled your heart. It was as if a hand was held out to pull you out of the pit of distress you were in. Wasn’t it so wonderful to get reminded that you have someone to hold on, Jesus loves you all the time.
“Rejoice in the Lord always. I will say it again: Rejoice! Let your gentleness be evident to all. The Lord is near. Do not be anxious about anything, but in every situation, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God. And the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus.” – Philippians 4:4-7
Are you going through a situation where you feel all alone. Are you feeling that no one is trying to understand you – your parents, your spouse, your children, your friends, your siblings, your co-workers,…..
I would like to tell you just one thing, “Jesus Loves You”. Give your heart to Jesus. He understands all that you have got to say. If Christ is in you, you are complete because Christ Himself is perfect love, perfect peace, perfect patience, perfect kindness. He is all goodness, and He is in you! If there is something that should be corrected in order to reconcile with your loved ones, He is sure to lead you and restore relationships like before.
Sometimes at a store counter, a waiter at the restaurant, manager, friends, etc. might seem frustrated and annoying to you. We don’t know what they are going through. I just want to encourage each one of you to tell them that “Jesus Loves You”. It could be Jesus that they are lacking in their life. The love of Jesus lifts the lowly.
“He raises the poor from the dust
and lifts the needy from the ash heap;
he seats them with princes,
with the princes of their people.” – Psalm 113:7-8
Just tell them of His love with faith, Jesus is sure to make His ever abiding love flow into their life.
We can’t always solve others problems or help them overcome their emotions. In the short span of time you get to see them just tell them with faith that “Jesus Loves You”. God is sure to start the work in their heart after that. I encourage each and every one reading this post to tell at least one person whom you feel needs to be appreciated or encouraged today that Jesus loves them. Lets make it a practice in our lives to tell others of Jesus and His amazing love that made us His children, that gave us an assurance that He will never leave us nor forsake us. Nothing of this world substitutes the love Jesus offers us. Once you are in Him nothing can separate you from His love.
“Who shall separate us from the love of Christ? Shall tribulation, or distress, or persecution, or famine, or nakedness, or peril, or sword? Yet in all these things we are more than conquerors through Him who loved us. For I am persuaded that neither death nor life, nor angels nor principalities nor powers, nor things present nor things to come, nor height nor depth, nor any other created thing, shall be able to separate us from the love of God which is in Christ Jesus our Lord.” – Romans 8:35-39
Hold on to Jesus at all times because: “Jesus Loves You”.
God Bless!
