I AM AN 80 YEAR OLD MALE, BORN AGAIN, CHRISTIAN WITH A LOVE FOR JESUS. I DO NOT GET OUT MUCH ANYMORE BUT FIND THAT TELLING PEOPLE ABOUT THE LOVE JESUS HAS FOR THEM IS NOT ONLY WHAT WE ARE SUPPOSED TO DO BUT SOMETHING THAT THE WORLD NEEDS.

"SPEND SOME QUIET TIME WITH JESUS" BY DAVID MCMILLEN

SPEND SOME QUIET TIME WITH JESUS



WE ALL KNOW HOW MUCH JESUS LOVES US BECAUSE OF WHAT HE DID FOR US, BUT HE DOES LITTLE THINGS FOR US THAT SOMETIMES WE DON'T EVEN KNOW ABOUT.  I WAS READING ABOUT JOHN THE BAPTIST AND WHEN HE WAS BEHEADED, I AM SURE IT WAS A BAD TIME FOR HIS FOLLOWERS. THE BIBLE SAYS THAT WHEN THEY HEARD ABOUT IT, THEY CAME AND TOOK HIS CORPSE AND PUT IT IN A TOMB. WHEN THEY HAD DONE THIS, THE BIBLE SAYS THEY GATHERED THEMSELVES TOGETHER UNTO JESUS AND TOLD HIM ALL THINGS.

 



WHEN THEY HAD COME TO JESUS, LOOK WHAT JESUS DID. HE KNEW THEY WERE HAVING A BAD TIME SO LOOK AT THE LOVE JESUS SHOWED TO THEM. MARK 6:31-32 SAYS "And he said unto them, Come ye yourselves apart into a desert place, and rest a while: for there were many coming and going, and they had no leisure so much as to eat. And they departed into a desert place by ship privately."  HE IS ALWAYS THINKING ABOUT US JUST AS HE WAS THINKING ABOUT JOHN'S FOLLOWERS.

 

WE SHOULD BE ABLE TO LEARN FROM THIS.  WHEN THINGS GET REAL HECTIC, WE NEED TO GET AWAY AND REST IN THE LORD.  WE CAN'T BE ON EVERY COMMITTEE AT THE CHURCH AND TRY TO TAKE CARE OF EVERYTHING AND EXPECT TO FUNCTION AS GOD WANTS US TO FUNCTION.  WE HAVE TO HAVE TIME FOR HIM.  WE NEED TO RENEW OUR SPIRITS ONCE IN A WHILE.  ALTHOUGH THE DEVIL CAN'T KEEP US FROM GETTING ON FIRE FOR JESUS, HE WILL TRY TO STOP US BY TELLING US THAT WE HAVE TO DO ALL OF THESE THINGS SO WE WILL GET BURNED OUT.  SPEND TIME IN GOD'S WORD AND FEED YOUR SPIRITS. LOOK WHAT IS SAID IN PSALM 46:10 "Be still, and know that I am God: I will be exalted among the heathen, I will be exalted in the earth."  REST IN HIM AND HAVE SOME QUIET TIME WITH HIM.  HE DOES TALK WITH US IF WE WILL ONLY LISTEN.  OPEN YOUR BIBLE AND SEE WHAT HE HAS TO SAY.

 

GOD BLESS YOU ALL.
