A SONG ON MY HEART...

As I sit at my desk today in the humble surroundings of my office...I should say my bosses office, a wonderful chorus has come to mind.  In the little bit of down time I've been given today, the Lord has put a song in my heart.  It goes like this...

When I think of the goodness of Jesus,

and all he has done for me,

my soul cries out Hallelujah, 

praise God for saving me.

Wonderful chorus, isn't it?

I must admit that some days I forget just how good Jesus has been because I am usually too busy wading through the muck and the mire of other people's lives to give my own life much thought.

You see, I have a day job as a legal secretary.  Though it's a good job and one I am thankful for as it helps to pay the bills, it is one where I see the effects of sin on humanity in a big way.  Every client has an issue, a hurt or a problem that stems from the life of sin in which they live and they come to us to fix it.  I am always eager to please and I wish I could fix them right up.  The sad news is that neither I nor my boss can fix their situation.  When given the chance I try to share my faith but sadly the world seeks an attorney rather than the ONE who can truly fix their lives.   His name is JESUS.

If you are reading this today, and you have an issue in your life that you just don't know how to handle; perhaps  you have criminal charges pending against you or maybe your marriage is on the rocks, don't call a lawyer.  I urge you to call on the only one who is able to fix it....JESUS.

Jesus is the savior.  He is the instructor of righteousness and when one chooses to follow after him, his teachings and his laws, he will give them abundant life.  A life free and cleansed of sin.  A life that is free of addiction, crime and broken relationships.

Oh, if the world only knew of the goodness of Jesus and all he has done, they too could cry out Hallelujah, praise God for saving me.

Thank you Jesus for your song in my heart, but mostly for fixing my life and for your saving grace.  Oh how I love you!
