If He Loves Me

If He loves me why do I suffer
If He loves me why do I hurt
If He loves me why do the trials of my life bring trouble at every turn
If He loves me why do I tremble
at what the next day will bring
If He loves me when will He come to my side and remove all the things that sting
 
Isn’t it enough that He died for me to take away my sins?
Isn’t it enough that the comforter comes to settle your heart within?
All that this life will throw at you will never compare to His love
So when trials and tests try to steal all your rest
Come to Jesus for He is enough
 
His love is always there.  It is always a comfort, always a resting place when trouble comes.  We don’t have to wonder if he loves us if we will just look at the cross.  Look at what he went through for you.  Look at how much He suffered because he loves you.  There is no pain greater than the pain of His heart breaking when the Father turned His head and darkness covered the sky.  He had never been separated from His Father, not for all eternity past.  And yet for three hours, He was covered with sin, and the Father could not look.  That is how much Jesus loves you and me.
 
When trouble surround you and it seems that a temptation is too hard to bear, get that picture of the cross in your mind.  Think about Jesus on that cross.  In your minds eye look at the blood dripping down from His brow.  Look at the tears in His flesh.  Look at the nails in His feet and hands.  Look at His love poured out.  This is the image that will get you through your tests and trials.  He loved you so much that he stretched out His hands and died for you.  Isn’t that enough?  Does He really need to do any more for you to show you His love?
 
John 3:16
For God so loved the world that he gave His only begotten Son, that whosoever believed in Him would have everlasting life.
 

Hold On

When all seems lost
When life is not fair
When you are alone
And it seems no one cares
When it seems all your plans
Are like smoke in the air
Hold on

When trials take over
And you see no way out
When the storms come up hard
And they fill you with doubt
When you cannot find peace
As waves toss you about
Hold on

Hold on to Jesus
Never let go
Hold onto hope
He’s the giver of hope
Hold onto love
He’s the author of love
Hold onto Jesus
He is enough

Hold onto grace
His grace covers all
Hold onto mercy
His mercy can’t fail
Hold onto faith
He’ll work with that seed
Hold onto Jesus
He’ll meet your need

He’ll never fail
He’s always there
He’s true and just
He is enough
He’ll see you through
He will calm you
Just cling to Jesus
Hold on
