JESUS IS CALLING US

“And when she had so said, she went her way, and called Mary her sister secretly, saying, The Master is come, and calleth for thee.”

John 11:28 KJV

Sarah Doudney wrote the hymn “The Master Hath Come”.  I love these words in this beautiful hymn.  “The Master hath called us; the road may be dreary And dangers and sorrows are strewn on the track; But God’s Holy Spirit shall comfort the weary; We follow the Savior and cannot turn back;”

We read in the Bible.  “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).  Jesus is calling us to serve Him.  Have you answered His call and told Him you will serve Him?  Jesus left all He had to die for us.  How can we do less than serve Him?

It is not only our responsibility to serve Jesus; it is also a privilege to serve the One Who loves us so much He died for us.  May God help us to shut off the television, get out of our comfort zone and serve Him.  O how I love Jesus.  He is the Joy of my heart and the reason I’m living.
