Jesus and Me
For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him
should not perish but have everlasting life.
Union with Jesus Christ is the foundation of our hope.
Being confident in how much Jesus loves you won’t just make you happier; it will be a
stabilizing force in your life. When you are assured of His love for you, when you are aware that
He is intimately concerned about your welfare and happiness, then that knowledge will give you
peace in your heart and steady you, even when you face disappointments, heartbreaks,
difficulties, or anything else that life sends your way. His love is the only thing in the world
that is absolutely perfect and unfailing. There are a lot of things that are nice, beautiful, and
wonderful, but nothing is perfect like His love. He is perfect, and so is His love. It’s
durable, dependable, and forever!
Be Lord within me to strengthen me without me to preserve me over me to shelter me beneath me to
support me before me to direct me behind me to bring me back around me to fortify me.
All the peace and favor of the world cannot calm a troubled heart; but where this peace is which
Christ gives, all the trouble and disquiet of the world cannot disturb it.
Rest of the weary, Joy of the sad, Hope of the dreary, Light of the glad; Home of the stranger,
Strength to the end, Refuge from danger, Savior and Friend!
To me, Jesus is the Life I want to live, the Light I want to reflect, the Way to the Father, the
Love I want to express, the Joy I want to share, the Peace I want to sow around me. Jesus is
everything to me.—Mother Teresa (1910–1997) Abide in Me, and I in you. As the branch
cannot bear fruit of itself, unless it abides in the vine, neither can you, unless you abide in
Me. I am the vine, you are the branches. He who abides in Me, and I in him, bears much fruit; for
without Me you can do nothing.
Faith in Jesus Christ is the soul’s flight into the city of refuge. |
