My Savior's Always There For Me

My daughter and I recently got into a conversation regarding those who label themselves as atheist, agnostic, or skeptics. She shared her belief that many such people are often highly intelligent. Despite the fact that they have heard the Gospel, - they choose not to believe it is Truth. She mentioned that they are probably "too intelligent for their own good."

There is a LOT of truth to her statement!

God favors faith and wisdom over and above intelligence. That is why the Bible tells us that we are to "become as little children" - trusting and believing in His Son for our salvation.

My daughter also mentioned to me that there is a man who stands on the sidewalk of her college campus with a sign that reads, "religion is a crutch." That sign angers her and she often wanted to confront the man with some facts about FAITH in Jesus Christ - and the difference between KNOWING THE SAVIOR - vs. just believing in a "religion."

People can be sincere in their "religious" beliefs - including the religious belief of atheism, agnosticism, or skepticism. However, they can be (and often are - according to the Bible) sincerely WRONG in such anti-
God beliefs.

The facts are undeniable about Jesus. Jesus Christ is a genuine historical Person who lived, preached the Gospel during his three year ministry on earth, performed miracles among thousands of witnesses, healed the sick, the disabled, and the demon-possessed; and brought some back to life from death. Christ was crucified for our sins, died, and was buried. Three days later, he rose from the dead as he previously said he would.

This proves who He is.

Every other religious leader died - and stayed dead in the grave. However, Christ's tomb was, is, and forevermore remains empty!

Contrary to what the man on campus with the sign thinks, the truth is that belief in Jesus Christ is no crutch. It is salvation for the lost. The only way to be reconciled to the Father for all eternity. As Aaron Shust states in his beautiful song, "My Savior, My God" -

My strength, my solace from this spring;
That He who lives to be my King
Once died to be my Savior

That He would leave His place on high
And come for sinful man to die
You count it strange, so once did I
Before I knew my Savior

I just love this song! I think that you will too!

The video below is Aaron Shust performing "My Savior, My God" on The Logan Show. A simple but beautiful and passionate song that shares the eternal message of Jesus Christ being our Savior and King of our lives here on this earth - and for all eternity!

Enjoy!

Lyrics to My Savior My God :

I am not skilled to understand
What God has willed, what God has planned
I only know at His right hand
Stands one who is my Savior

I take Him at His word and deed
Christ died to save me; this I read
And in my heart I find a need
Of Him to be my savior

That He would leave His place on high
And come for sinful man to die
You count it strange, so once did I
Before I knew my Savior

Chorus (2x's)
My Savior loves, My Savior lives
My Savior's always there for me
My God: He was, my God; He is
My God is always gonna be

Yes, living, dying, let me bring
My strength, my solace from this spring;
That He who lives to be my King
Once died to be my Savior

That He would leave His place on high
And come for sinful man to die
You count it strange, so once did I
Before I knew my Savior

Chorus (2x's)
