EXCITEMENT

“And I say unto you, Ask, and it shall be given you; seek, and ye shall find; knock, and it shall be opened unto you.  For every one that asketh receiveth; and he that seeketh findeth; and to him that knocketh it shall be opened.”

Luke 11:9, 10 KJV

Have you ever been excited about something and you shared it with someone and that person didn’t get excited?  The next time you get excited and want someone to be happy and excited with you, tell Jesus and He will share your excitement.  He is not only our Saviour, He is also our best Friend.

Pastor Edmund Simon Lorenz wrote one of my favorite hymns “Tell It To Jesus”.  I love these words.  “Are you weary, are you heavy hearted?  Tell it to Jesus, tell it to Jesus.  Are you grieving over joys departed?  Tell it to Jesus alone.”  Jesus shares our heartaches and He also shares our joy and happiness.

The next time you are discouraged because people don’t share your excitement and happiness, tell God.  He loves you very much and He will share your excitement and happiness with you.  It is very important that we are encouragers to one another and share excitement and happiness.
