He's The One I Need

This was now the third time Jesus appeared to the disciples after he was raised from the dead. John 21:14

Other versions may use 'was revealed' in place of 'appeared', and both speak to our need for the Lord Jesus, risen and alive! While His death on the cross satisfied God's judgment for our sin, it is the living Lord that we need for the lifetime journey each must take. The ascended Lord Jesus gave to us His Spirit, living in each of us who believe in Jesus, to accompany us everywhere we may go. And every provision is made by God for us to believe and carry on in faith. The disciples needed more than one or two appearances, and so Jesus came to them for the third time. To us in the latter days, He also gave His word in the form of Bibles to carry and study.

All of these reminders I am going through this morning to help with a bit of a down feeling. There does not seem to be a good reason for it, but He is the one I need. In case you need a reminder, I'll gladly share the good news of Jesus with you too!

Have a joyous day in Christ our Lord!
