Is Jesus Enough?

Is Jesus Enough?

Are you troubled and confused? Hes the Wonderful Counselor
Are you tense? Hes the Prince of Peace
Are you uncertain? Hes the Corner Stone and the Solid Rock
Are you let down? He is Faithful
Are you lonely? He is the Friend who is closer than a brother
Are you defenseless? Hes the Advocate
Are you in the dark? He is the Light
Are you surrounded by difficulties? He is the Deliverer
Are you sin-full? He is our Righteousness
Are you helpless? He is our Savior
Are you bereaved? He is the Resurrection and the Life
Are you hungry and thirsty? He is the Bread and the Dayspring
Are you searching? He is the Way, the Truth, and the Life
Jesus is the First and the Last
He is the Beginning and the End
He is Alpha and Omega
He is Keeper of Creation and Creator of all
He is the Architect of the universe and Hes the Manager of time
He always was, He always is, and He always will be unmoved, unchanged, undefeated, but never undone
He is light, love, longevity, and Lord
He is goodness, gentleness, grace, guide, God
He is holy, righteous, mighty, powerful, pure
He is Savior, sanctifier, redeemer, friend
He is peace, He is joy, He is comfort
He is hope, He is eternal, He is Ancient of Days
He is Ruler of rulers, King of kings
The world cant understand Him, armies cant defeat Him,
The schools cannot explain Him, the leaders cannot ignore Him
The Pharisees couldnt confuse Him, Herod couldnt kill Him
Nero couldnt crush Him, Hitler couldnt silence Him
The New Age cant replace Him, and Phil Donahue cant explain Him away
He will never leave you, He will never forsake you
He will never mislead you, He will never overlook you, He will never forget you
When you fall, He will lift you up; when you fall, He will forgive
When you are weak, He is strong; when you are lost, He is the way
When you are afraid, He is courage; when you are stumbling, He is steady
When you hurt, He will heal; when you are broken, He mends
When you are blind, He leads; when you are hungry, He feeds
When you face trials, Hes with you; when you face persecution, Hell shield you
When you face problems, He will comfort you; when you face loss, He will provide
When you face death, He is the resurrection & He holds the keys to the grave
He is everything for everybody, everywhere, every way, every time
He is God, He is faithful, and He is enough!

Can you imagine anything more than that? Ever - in your entire life? No way! Hes enough! And heres the most amazing thing about it - that person just described, all those descriptors, heres the most amazing thing about it; He is personally interested in being friends with you! That Guy wants to be your friend! Youd think wed be banging on the door trying to be His friend, and Hes banging on the door trying to be ours!

Amazing grace, how sweet the sound! He numbers the hairs on your head because He wants you to know that He is personally, intimately interested in you and that He cares about the details of your life that you dont even consider. Thats how much He cares about you.

So what is the Adventist message? Jesus Only! Paul confesses, 'I count all things but lost except for the excellency of the knowledge of Jesus Christ my Lord." Philippians 3:8 Because Hes enough!

I just want to know Him. Thats it! That I may know Him. That I may know Him and that I may help other people to know Him too.
