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!
