Day 25 – Need

I need Thee, Oh, I need Thee; Ev’ry hour I need Thee; Oh, bless me now, my Savior, I come to Thee. By Robert Lowry

Therefore, I tell you, her many sins have been forgiven – for she loved much.  But he who has been forgiven little loves little. Luke 7:47

Oh Lord, today I am reminded of my complete need for You.  This passage speaks such depth of truth – that until I know what I’m saved from, I won’t understand the gravity of Your love.  In return, my tendency will be to only give You a portion of the love You deserve.  Oh how great is Your sacrifice!

I was steeped in sin from birth.  I lived a prideful life with rebellion in my heart.  I have been prayerless and haven’t been grateful.  I’ve given myself to things and wasted my time.  Yet, You gave of Yourself freely.  In agony, You pored Yourself out; Your lifeblood was spilt.  In Your lovingkindness, You were broken for my brokenness.  Without You I would have no hope and no purpose.  I am so in need of You – for salvation, for hope, for my broken parts, for provision, for life itself.   Thank You for Your love.  You are worthy of ALLworship, honor, and praise.  

In Jesus’ name, amen.
