I am alive because He lives
(Because He lives - west coast choir)

I was listening to this song the other day called “Because He lives”. It is similar to an old hymn I used to sing at church but this is newer and different and it got me thinking. I was thinking about how when people sacrifice themselves for others, they would say something like I am alive because they died. They made a sacrifice for someone else. But with Jesus, we are alive because He lives. He died for us but this statement carries the incredible fact that if Jesus had just died on the cross and not come back to life, we would not be here. We would not have a hope. The way to heaven would not have been paved for us. Jesus would not be waiting for us in heaven right now. The song says “Because He lives, I can face tomorrow, Because He lives, every fear is gone, I know He holds my life, my future in His hands”. We have hope in Jesus because He is alive. We have hope in a savior who is living! We are trusting in someone who is alive. Not only that but we have hope in someone who came back to life.How crazy is that. We put the hope of our future into the hands of someone so powerful that they came back to life and now lives eternally in Heaven. We can face tomorrow in the certainty that Jesus is alive and has gone before us. We do not need to live in fear because He lives. He is always with us. Remember the hope you have in Jesus because of His actions on the cross and in the grave. Jesus died for our sins. He paid the ultimate price. Then He didn’t stay dead, He came back to life and beat death. He won that battle for us. We are alive because He lives.
