Jesus Knows What We Need
In America our standard of living is so high that we have forgotten what our real needs are. Jesus said it is having something to eat and something to wear, but He also knows our deepest heartaches and fears. He knows how to comfort us when we need it most.
Philippians 4:19 But my God shall supply all your need according to his riches in glory by Christ Jesus.
God planned that we know Him in a personal way because we need to learn to depend on Him. Our needs are more than material.
The person who doesn't have Christ, no matter what else he may have, has nothing. But those who are born again, have Christ in their hearts, have everything: Salvation -- Security -- Supply.
I’d rather have Jesus than silver or gold;
I’d rather be His than have riches untold;
I’d rather have Jesus than houses or lands;
I’d rather be led by His nail-pierced hand
Than to be the king of a vast domain
And be held in sin’s dread sway;
I’d rather have Jesus than anything
This world affords today.
