What Can Jesus Do for Me?

I was watching a sermon from Redemption World Outreach Center in Greenville the other day. It comes on Ch. 13 on Sun. at 11:30 PM and Ch. 16 weekdays at 2:30 PM. He said people follow Jesus because of what he can do for them. We need to serve God selflessly regardless of if he does anythong for us or not. If we serve God selflessly he will bless us although we won't live a life free of suffering!

Also, Wed. night it was mentioned that if we ask Jesus for wisdom he will grant it to us. God has a way of showing us what is best for us. I wanted to go to Clemson after graduation but I had to wait until this coming semester. Therefore, I went to Tri-County for a year. This allowed me to adjust to college and meet many nice people. Did God make it so I couldn't get in to Clemson right away? I think so. "I know the plans I have for you says the Lord." I prayed that I would get into Clemson right away, but I didn't, and I had a great time at Tri-County. As some songs say, "If you want to hear God laugh tell him your plans" and "Some of God's greatest gifts are unanswered prayers." God has a plan for each of us and you should seek his wisdom when faced with a tough decision because he knows the past, present, and future.
