Because He Lives

With so many things in our lives that can weigh us down, cause us to fear or dread or think we cannot bear to think what tomorrow will be live, "I can face tomorrow because He lives". I'm sure all of us have experienced fear. Fear from unseen things can be terrifying and become debilitating. Fear is real and powerful and from the devil. All fear is gone, because He lives. Because He lives is a powerful song. If we take the time to think about the words we are singing and reflect on the things that Jesus has brought us through. The fear we once had, the pain we may have endured, the faith we needed, the addictions we desperately needed freedom from, the forgiveness we needed, the healing needed, devastation we once faced or loss we endured all are possible and now real, simply because He lives. He died for our freedom and forgiveness and rose again to be with us and carry us on.
The most powerful line in that song is "Because He lives, all fear is gone".  The devil is powerful and pain is real. But Jesus is more powerful and promises freedom. And Because He lives all fear is gone!



Because He lives
I can face tomorrow
Because He lives
All fear is gone
Because I know
He holds the future
And life is worth the living
Just because He lives

As parents, we choose to have children and therefore we are obligated to sacrifice almost everything in our life to raise, teach and protect...
