For The One Who Gave His Life For Me

As we go through life, our daily lives, we are so consumed in everything we do, our work, our school, family, friends, personal issues and struggles, too often we get too consumed in it all and forget about the most important thing we should be living for.

Jesus Christ came to earth for one purpose only, to lay His life down for us so we may be free and blameless in front of God. We are on this earth to serve the one true God. Whether that is to work at our jobs, to travel the world and do missions, to tell others about our Savior, to help in our communities, churches, shelters, etc. We can be living, breathing examples of the word of God.

Growing up I knew this concept all too well being raised by Christian parents, however I did not live by it in any way. I always thought I knew what was best for me and I could do everything on my own, however whenever I tried to do things on my own, they would just go downhill. That’s when I had to run to God and just give Him everything. My whole life was very up and down and I had gone through many things, that I came to this one point last summer where I just decided to completely give my life to God. He is the one who created this earth and has all power over everything and still desires to have a personal relationship with each and every one of us, so why not give Him control over my life?

Once I gave Him control over my life, I came to Jesus Revolution and He has helped me get through every situation I’ve come across since. I’m not saying things were super easy, but He helped through each step, like parents teaching their child how to walk. They may fall from time to time, but their parents are with them always. God loves each one of us so much, so much so we will never comprehend and He wants to help us, but only if we allow Him to. Hebrews 13:5 “…He will never leave nor forsake us…”
