I'd Need A Savior

I have heard this song several times on K-Love and it blesses my heart every time. It assures me that God is so aware of what we need even before we realize we have a need. God never ceases to amaze me, He knew even before He gave me my first breath that I would need a Savior. He is such a loving God that He even went as far as providing me with a Savior, Who paid the price for my sins through His death on an old rugged cross. Such LOVE! John 15:13 Greater love hath no man than this, that a man lay down his life for his friends. As this song says "He's what I hold on to!" I know that He will see me through whatever I may face because He is not only aware of my needs, He already has the provision. He knows what my future holds, just as He knew I'd need a Savior!

Jesus Is All I Need

Sitting here today doing some reading and a precious memory came to my mind of something my son said when he was 4 years old. He was talking with the nurse during his pre-op. His arm was broken and they were scheduling him to be put to sleep in order to set the bone and put the cast on. The nurse told him he was allowed to bring one thing that was very special to him, whether it was a special toy or a special blanket or whatever he felt close to. I said "Jeremiah, do you have anything you want to bring with you?" His immediate reply was, "Jesus". I still get emotional even as I type. I thought to myself, what else could He need? Jesus is All we need! He is the answer to whatever we may be facing today. The words of this chorus is an old favorite of mine:

He's all I need
He's all I need
Jesus is all I need
He's all I need
He's all I need
Jesus is all I need

My little boy went in with Jesus that day and came out with Jesus, there was no need for anything or anyone else!
