Until Christ Returns
" Unto you therefore which believe He is precious:"
1Pet 2:7
In this day it is my hearts desire to share my
deepest feelings to you towards my Saviour Jesus Christ. I will be
totally unable to express myself but at least I will try
This morning my daughter came to me asking
whether I will play for her while she must sing in Church. I have
a wonderful music instrument and her absolutely beautiful voice and the
medley she chose changed my whole day. Oh! I realized much I love
Jesus Christ my Saviour. When she sang the second song I could only
cry when I began to grasp what He had done for me , giving His life
for me. Yes for my sins dying such a cruel death on the Cross of
Calvary. For Susan, yes me, unworthy me. Oh! what a wonderful
Saviour. Just read the words of the song.
"I see a crimson stream of Blood
which flows from Calvary
Its waves that reach the Throne of God,
are sweeping over me".
How unworthy am I. --- How unworthy.
Yes to me He is precious. I gave my life, my all to Him when I was
fourteen years old and now while heading to become 53 years old on the
3rd of December, He is so much more, Oh so much more precious. As
the years went by His faithfulness never changed. Oh how many times
I failed Him. So many many many times and yet He still loves me with
an everlasting Love.
Precious is He Oh so precious. I want to
sing that chorus that says. " I will serve no other gods".
Only Him Jesus Christ my Messiah.
I have been ridiculed yes. In school I
was called "little priest" or "little Bible". But I was
so honored to be called those names. And those same children who
called me these names, also came in secret and asked me to pray for them.
And God miraculously answered their requests and they were so amazed. When
Jesus spoke in my heart and asked if He may have my voice only to sing
for Him, I was willing even while I won the first prize in every contest
I partook in every year since grade 4. The teacher could not understand.
She argued with me for and hour, but I was determined to follow in my Lord's
footsteps. The natural mind cannot understand God's mind. Yes
His spiritual mind. Nor can the natural mind understand God's purposes
and tests He puts us through to test our love for Him and Him alone, nor
can the natural mind understand those who has set his mind on being obedient
to the Lord, no matter what the cost.
Now years later she also found Jesus Christ
as her personal Savior and as an old lady, she told someone that the child
that made the greatest impression on her all the years that she was a teacher
was I. Oh how thankful I am that I sowed the seed that day that sprang
forth and today she is serving Jesus with all that is within her.
Yes, I was lonely for the path to Heaven is narrow and I had no desires
in my heart to indulge in sin, which most disagreed was sin.
But He was always Oh so near to me. Never did He leave me.
Even when I strayed from Him at a time in my life, The great
Shepherd drew again to Him with His loving staff.
I cannot understand why anybody would not want
to serve Him. He is so precious. So precious. The Blood
of Jesus Christ is free, but not cheap. Oh what a great prize to
pay for the world's sin. Yes for yours too. So that you may
know Him. Really know Him as a reality. He is the only reality.
For generations have come and gone. Times changed but He will never
change. Yesterday today and forever He remains the same. He
is Love. Take Love away and He will be there no more. He loves
you so much in this day. Oh won't you give your whole heart to Him.
Your all, your life, your future, your problems, your sickness. Let
Him be the King of your life as from today. Oh No! you will not loose
out on many things, you will win all the way. Everlasting Life and
everlasting peace, which only He can give. You will hunger and thirst
no more when you have found Him as your personal Saviour.
If you feel His pleading in your heart
right now, just pray these words after me. " Dear Lord Jesus, thankyou
that You died for "........" (your name) too. Actually I must have
hung on that cross, but You took my penalty. I admit that I am a
sinner. Please wash me in Your precious Blood and make me white as
snow. Ready to meet You in the sky so that I will not be left
behind. From this day on You will be my King and Saviour. I will
serve You with all my heart. Thankyou now Lord Jesus Christ, Son
of the Living God, that I am now a child of God for Your word says "But
as many as received Him, to them gave He power to become the sons of God,
even to them that believe on His Name." (John 1:12). Thankyou Heavenly
Father, I am now Your child. I know it for Your Word says so. Amen"
Well now I have shared with you a tiny part of
my life and my first love. Jesus Christ the Son of the only God.
I sing along with the song that says:
"There is None like Thee,
Nothing else can touch my heart like You do
I could search through all eternity,
and find
There is None like Thee.
May the Lord bless this "Until Christ returns"
to your heart. If you have a desire to talk to me or if you have a special
request, you are so welcome to write to me at the below address.
Susan.
