I need just such a friend
(William S. Plumer)
Jesus knows all my wants and weaknesses; all my sin and misery. He knows the
malice of my enemies, and the foolishness of my heart. He has power to subdue my
whole nature to Himself, and to defeat the wiles and machinations of my foes.
His grace is all -sufficient.
His love is infinite.
His wisdom cannot be defeated.
His power cannot be resisted.
He has all power and strength --and I am very weak. He has all the knowledge to
understand my whole case, and all the wisdom necessary to direct everything
concerning me. He makes no mistakes. He is never deceived. He is never
outsmarted. He knows all things. He knows my weaknesses. He knows my sorrows.
He knows my heart. His wisdom never fails. He is never confounded or perplexed.
He has as much mercy and kindness as I need. His loving -kindness is so great that
we cannot fathom its top or the bottom --the length or the breadth of it. The ocean
of the Divine love is boundless and inexhaustible! It is infinite!
I have no sorrow to which He is a stranger.
He sympathizes with me in all my sufferings and temptations.
I need just such a friend.
"Let us then approach the throne of grace with confidence, so that we may receive
mercy and find grace to help us in our time of need" Hebrews 4:16
