 ARE WE SERVING JESUS

"Thou therefore endure hardness, as a good soldier of Jesus Christ."

2 Timothy 2:3
King James Version

Jessie Pounds wrote a hymn that should challenge all of us "DARE TO SHOW YOUR COLORS".

"Dare to live for Jesus! Dare to bravely stand, Ready when He calls you, Waiting His command.

Dare to show your colors! Dare to own your king! Dare to be a Christian! Dare to serve and sing!

Dare to speak for Jesus! Dare to show the way From this land of shadows To the land of day.

Dare to work for Jesus! He has work for you, Something for His service, Something you can do."

I thank God for the privilege He has given me to write daily devotions about His beloved Son, Jesus. Every time I write a devotion, I feel closer to Jesus and one happy and joyous day I will have the privilege of seeing Jesus face to face when God calls me home to Heaven.

What a wonderful day of rejoicing and happiness that is going to be. How I long to see my precious Saviour face to face.

Are you going to see Jesus? Have you made room for Jesus in your heart and in your life? If not, you are hurting Him and breaking His heart.

One of my favorite hymns is "HAVE YOU ANY ROOM FOR JESUS?" I couldn't find who wrote this hymn.

"Have you any room for Jesus, He who bore your load of sin? As He knocks and asks admission, Sinners, will you let Him in?

Room for Jesus, King of Glory! Hasten now His Word obey; Swing the heart’s door widely open, Bid Him enter while you may.

Room for pleasure, room for business, But for Christ the Crucified, Not a place that He can enter, In the heart for which He died?

Have you any room for Jesus, As in grace He calls again? O today is time accepted, Tomorrow you may call in vain.

Room and time now give to Jesus, Soon will pass God’s day of grace; Soon thy heart left cold and silent, And thy Savior’s pleading cease."

If you have never made room for Jesus in your heart and life, do it now! Please don't keep hurting Jesus and breaking His heart.
