Hold us Together

You may never know that Jesus is all you need, until Jesus is all you have. -Corrie Ten Boom

Have you ever felt like you had nothing left? Like this life is pointless? Corrie Ten Boom literally lost everything, and she discovered that Jesus is really the only thing we need. 

Sure, there may be things we want, but do we really need them? 

Christ's love alone can hold our lives together. When we attempt to use other things, it's like trying to use water instead of super glue. 

I think that we have a lot of things backwards. We don't need food, clothing, boyfriends/girlfriends, a house, friends, etc., and Christ isn't something extra that we can just add on when we want to. 

God is what we need, He is the One True Foundation. Everything else is something that God chooses to add on. 

Think of the Heaven. We will be praising God (in His presence!) day and night... and we will be completely satisfied through that. That is why Heaven will be so wonderful. 

Don't curse God for what He didn't give you... Praise Him for what He did. :)
