I am Jesus. - Acts 9:5
Immanuel presents Himself this morning, and tells us He is exactly suited to us, whatever may be our circumstances, or feelings; He says, "I am Jesus."
Are you seeking the Lord? He is Jesus, the gracious, powerful, tender-hearted, ready and willing Saviour. Are you tried, troubled, and cast down? He is Jesus, the constant, sympathizing, present, wise and unchangeable Friend. Are you a returning backslider, filled with your own ways? He is Jesus, and He says, "I will receive you; I will heal you; I will restore you; I will rejoice over you, as the shepherd over the sheep he had lost."
Beloved, Jesus is the Lord our God, our all in all; our God is Jesus the Saviour, merciful, kind, and tender; this proclamation is cheering to the sinner, and delightful to the saint.
Let us remember, whoever may change, whatever may change, He is Jesus still; still touched with the feeling of our infirmities; still able and willing to help us; still full of compassion and plenteous in mercy unto all them that call upon Him; still ready to forgive, waiting to be gracious, full of pity, and pledged to receive us.
When darkness veils His lovely face,
I rest on His unchanging grace;
In every high and stormy gale,
My anchor holds within the veil;
On Christ the solid Rock I stand,
All other ground is sinking sand.
