October 24 Morning: "I am Jesus" - Acts 9:5

"I AM THE RESURRECTION AND THE LIFE," says our Lord Jesus. To all who believe He gives life everlasting. He comes to us this morning, and tells us He is the Saviour we need. Whatever our circumstances or problems, He says, "I am Jesus." Are you seeking the Saviour? He is Jesus, ever gracious, powerful, tenderhearted, ready and willing to be yours. Are you tried, troubled, and cast down? He is Jesus, the constant, sympathizing, present, wise and unchangeable Friend. Are you a returning backslider, filled with remorse and shame? He is Jesus, and He says, "I will receive you, heal you, restore you, and rejoice over you, as the Shepherd over the sheep he had lost." Beloved, Jesus is the Lord our God, our all in all; our God is Jesus the Saviour, merciful, kind, and tender; this proclamation cheers the sinner and delights the saint. Let us remember, whoever may change, whatever may change, He is Jesus still, always touched with the feeling of our infirmities, able and willing to help us, full of compassion and plenteous in mercy unto all them that call upon Him; ready to forgive, full of grace and pity, and pledged to receive us, because He only is Jesus.

For Meditation:
When darkness veils His lovely face,
I rest on His unchanging grace;
In every high and stormy gale,
My anchor holds within the veil;
On Christ the solid Rock I stand,
All other ground is sinking sand.
