IT REALLY IS TRUE

“Also I heard the voice of the Lord, saying, Whom shall I send, and who will go for us? Then said I, Here am I; send me.”

Isaiah 6:8

King James Version

Bill and Gloria Gaither wrote a hymn that describes how I feel to have the privilege of serving my precious Saviour “The Longer I Serve Him”.  The words in this inspiring hymn are so true.  “The longer I serve Him, the sweeter He grows, The more that I love Him, more love He bestows; Each day is like heaven, my heart overflows, The longer I serve Him, the sweeter He grows.”

One of my pastors said in a sermon “If you want to fly higher than a kite, start serving Jesus”.  It really is true because there are times that I feel like I am flying higher than a kite.  Even when satan attacks me with lies and tells me Jesus doesn’t love me and never will love me and tries his best to discourage me from serving Jesus, I still feel like I am flying higher than a kite.

Are you serving Jesus?  If you aren’t serving Jesus, why aren’t you serving Him?  You may think that you don’t have the time and it may not be convenient for you to serve Him but I don’t think it was convenient for Jesus to leave His Father, His home and all that He had to come to earth on the mission His Father had given Him but Jesus came.  May God help us to serve the One Who loves us so much He died for us.

You will have to shut off the television and get out of your comfort zone to serve Jesus just as He got of His comfort zone to die on the cross for our sins.  It should be the desire of every Christian to make Jesus happy.  Have you allowed it to go from head knowledge to heart knowledge how much Jesus loves you?  There is nothing you could ever do that would make Him stop loving you.  He loved you yesterday, He loves you today and He will love you forever.

All hail, King Jesus!  Worthy is the Lamb of God!  He is the “KING OF KINGS AND LORD OF LORDS”!  Do you love Jesus?  If you do love Him, what are you doing to prove to Him that you love Him?  If ever someone deserves to be praised and adored, it is Jesus and one happy day I will have the privilege of seeing Him face to face.  O how I love Jesus!  He is the reason I’m living, the reason I get out of bed and the Joy of my heart.
