"If you love me, you will keep my commandments. And I will ask the Father, and he will give you another Helper, to be with you forever, even the Spirit of truth, whom the world cannot receive, because it neither sees him nor knows him. You know him, for he dwells with you and will be in you." - John 14:15-17
Jesus Christ lives within our hearts. He has promised to love us, and be with us forever. He has always been there for me, and I know that personally. He promises to always be there for each and every one of us.
"I will not leave you as orphans; I will come to you. Yet a little while and the world will see me no more, but you will see me. Because I live, you also will live. In that day you will know that I am in my Father, and you in me, and I in you. Whoever has my commandments and keeps them, he it is who loves me. And he who loves me will be loved by my Father, and I will love him and manifest myself to him." - John 14:18-21
He has promised to help us, and guide us within our lifetimes as long as we believe in him. We should follow his word and his commandments. We shall live our lives for him, and worship in his name. I cannot say that enough, and I will never stop saying it. He died on the cross for our sins, and the least we can do is follow his way and glorify in his name.
"If anyone loves me, he will keep my word, and my Father will love him, and we will come to him and make our home with him. Whoever does not love me does not keep my words. And the word that you hear is not mine but the Father's who sent me. These things I have spoken to you while I am still with you. But the Helper, the Holy Spirit, whom the Father will send in my name, he will teach you all things and bring to your remembrance all that I have said to you. Peace I leave with you; my peace I give to you. Not as the world gives do I give to you. Let not your hearts be troubled, neither let them be afraid." - John 14:23-27
He's always there, and he never backs out on us. He keeps his word. He is always there for us, and never will he ever not be.
Do you back out on the ones you love? Do you let them down at some point? We all do at some point. He does not. He does not let us down; he is always there for us. He never leaves us hanging, and he will always love us unconditionally.
Without a doubt, he is our Creator and our Father. Without a doubt, I would never have it any other way than to be a child and follower in Jesus Christ.
What are you in this world?
I am a child of God.
I know you are too.
The question for you, is do you know that?
The grace of the Lord Jesus be with all.
Amen.
