School in the evenings, 2 dentist appointments today, a hair appointment, grocery shopping, gotta squeeze in some grocery shopping, cut the grass, fix the plumbing, go to work and somehow manage to get my reading and study time in. The stress of the days can sometimes be overwhelming, but we thank God for the stability we gain from the truth found in His Word. If not for Christ - the One we read of and learn about in this Word - the one we can have an intimate relationship with - without Him, I'd be a basket case.
People who are outside of Christ? I don't know how they do it... especially when they are faced with a death of a loved one, a terminal illness, a family crisis or any other major event. If not for Christ, I don't know what gutter I'd be lying in today.
I heard an appropriate song today:
If not for Christ I would surely fall
Over myself and bear the fault
Of all my deeds so terrible
If not for Christ I would surely fall
If not for Christ I would surely fall
If not for Christ I would surely break
Under the weight of my mistakes
And in my sin be kept away
If not for Christ I would surely break
If not for Christ I would surely break
It was for me He bled and died
It was my sword that pierced His side
It was my name that Jesus cried
When on that tree He bled and died
It was for me He bled and died
And now to Christ I owe it all
He is to me a tower strong
Salvation does to me belong
It is to Christ I owe it all
It is to Christ I owe it all
