Be still and know that I am God: Jesus is my personal Savior and the Savior of the World

9/3/2014

 
​When I dig deep within myself to ask why I want to share the gospel of Jesus Christ with others, it's not so I can say I've been a missionary. It's not so my friends will all be in my church social group. It's not because I fear for their souls. It's because Jesus Christ is my Savior. When I've been torn with guilt or grief and knelt on the floor pleading for comfort, Jesus Christ tells me in my heart and mind that He knows me, that He loves me, and that no matter what I've done or the depth of my pain, that He has suffered for me. That He knows my pain, that He can heal me. And He has. Not once has He been silent when I've knelt and asked for reassurance. Does that mean that every prayer I utter is a deep, spiritual experience? No. Probably because I'm not asking with all my heart or paying attention. And yet, when I need Christ, He is there. He is my personal Savior, and He is your Savior. He suffered for every person that has lived and will live on this earth so that when you go to Him in prayer, He will tell you, "Be still and know that I am God." You will know then and every time you ask that you are loved by one who understands all, comprehends all, and has suffered all.
