Because we have a past.
We can't go back, but He can. The Bible says, "Jesus Christ, the same yesterday, and today, and forever" {Hebrews 13:8}. He can walk into those places of sin and failure, wipe the slate clean, and give you a new beginning. |
Because we need a friend.
Jesus knows the worst about us, yet He believes the best. Why? Because He sees us not as we are, but as we will be when He gets through with we. What a friend! |
Because He holds the future.
Who else are we going to trust? In His hands we are safe and secure - today, tomorrow, and for all eternity. His Word says, "For I know the plans I have for you...plans for good and not for evil, to give you a future and a hope. In those days when you pray, I will listen." {Jeremiah 29:11-13} |
