He is the first and the last, the beginning and the end. He's the keeper of creation and the creator of all. He's the architect of the universe and the manager of all time. He always was, always is, always will be unmoved, unchanged, undefeated and never undone.
He was bruised but brought healing, He was pierced but eased pain, He was persecuted but brought freedom, He was dead and brings life. He is risen to bring power and He reigns to bring peace.
The world can't understand Him, armies can't defeat Him, schools can't explain Him and leaders can't ignore Him. Herod couldn't kill Him, Nero couldn't crush Him, the new age cannot replace Him and Oprah cannot explain Him away.
You remind yourself, that He is light, He is love, He is longevity and He is the Lord. He is goodness and kindness and faithfulness and He is God. He is holy and righteousness and powerful and pure.
His ways are right, His word eternal, His will unchanging and His mind is on us. He's our Savior, our guide, our peace, our joy, our comfort, our Lord and He rules our lives.
I serve Him because...His bond is love, His yoke is easy, His burden is light and His goal for us is abundant life. I follow Him because He's the wisdom of the wise, the power of the powerful, the ancient of days, the ruler of rulers, the leader of all leaders. His goal is a relationship with me.
He'll never leave you, never forsake you, never mislead you, never forget you, never overlook you and never cancel your appointment in his appointment book.
When you fall He'll lift you up. When you fail, he'll forgive you. When you're weak, He's strong. When your lost, He's your way. When you're afraid, He's your courage.
When you stumble, he will steady you. When you're hurt He's gonna heal you. When you're broken, He will mend you. When you're blind, He will lead you. When you're hungry, He will feed you. When you face trials, He's with you. When I face persecution, He shields me. When I face problems, He will comfort me. When I face loss, He will provide for me. And when we face death, He will carry us all home to meet Him.
He is everything for everybody everywhere every time and in every way. He is your God. And that sisters, is who you belong to!!
