How I love Jesus. He had compassion for the hungry. He gave them bread and fish to eat. He bade Peter, "Walk on the waves with me!" and when he sank, he saved him from the murky sea.

And it saved his life.

There was a little man who couldn't see, so he climbed up in a sycamore tree hoping just by chance he might get a glance of Jesus. But Jesus gave all his time to him that day. He said,"Hurry down, Zacchaeus! Today will I abide with thee!

And it changed his life.

He crossed the wide sea for just one man, tormented and insane. He gave him peace and cleansed the land of the spirit that brought him shame.

And it changed his life.

He walked a long dusty road to a well, just to greet a woman of low esteem. And while others judged her to hell, he gave her a drink from a living stream!

And it changed her life!

As the stones were held high, against a woman caught in the act, and judged to die! He lowered his back and wrote in sand, and it stopped them in their tracks! "Where are your accusers," "There are none," she replied. No, not one would cast the first stone, leaving no one to condemn her, and Jesus said,"Nor do I."

And it saved her life!

Yes, he doesn't point the finger or throw stones if we stray. He simply,gently, guides the way. Not like some preachers today!

And of course I love Jesus because; As he pressed to pray when his disciples were asleep, he gave his all and did not keep from fulfilling his Father's cup with his own blood upon the tree!

And it changed the world!

But the main reason I really love him Is this: He rode in a Chevy towards the Red River bridge, while my foot was heavy upon the pedal to the edge. Enraged and fed-up, I was determined but, he stirred me clear of an untimely death, when his Spirit lifted the foot I pressed and stirred me clear while I amazed, then knew there was a God that day! He spoke in a whispering breath "If no one else does, I care, I love you," he said, on that starry, starry,night when I attempted to take my life, at seventeen,so young.

And it changed &...... saved my life!
