ARE YOU FLYING

“That I may publish with the voice of thanksgiving, and tell of all thy wondrous works.”

Psalms 26:7 KJV

William Edie Marks wrote a beautiful hymn “Keep Telling It”.  I love the words in this hymn.  “If there is abundance of joy in your heart, Made bright by the light from above, If Jesus has bidden your sorrows depart, Keep telling the story of love.”  Are we telling the story of love?

Many years ago when I lived in Texas, my pastor preached a sermon on serving Jesus.  Pastor Byron said “If you want to fly higher than a kite, start serving Jesus”.  When he said that, I didn’t realize he was serious.  However, since I have had the privilege of serving Jesus, I have been flying higher than a kite.

Someone emailed me and wrote “You write about Jesus loving us all the time”.  I don’t know if the person was complaining or not but as long as I have breath and have the privilege of serving Jesus, I will keep telling everyone how much Jesus loves us.  The unconditional love of Jesus is the answer to our heartaches.

May God help us to tell everyone we see how much Jesus loves them.  However, it is not enough to tell them Jesus loves them.  We must prove Jesus loves them by our kind and loving words and actions.  It is also very important that our family sees the difference Jesus has made in our heart and life.
