When we see something that is
funny, we look at our family and friends to see
if they are sharing the laughter with us.
Sometimes when the pastor says something funny
in his sermon we look at one another and smile.
I think that
God and Jesus look at one another and smile when
we do something that pleases Them. What kind of
look are They giving each other concerning you?
Is it a look of happiness or a look of sorrow?
Are you doing
and saying things to bring happiness to the
Heart of Jesus? Jesus has done so much for us
and asks so little of us. He gave His very Life
for us. His commandments are not that difficult
to keep if we truly love Him as He wants us to
love Him. How
about the things you are watching on television
and the places you go and the friends that you
have? Is your life bringing a smile to Jesus'
Face, or is it bringing tears? If you could see
Jesus in the flesh sitting right by you, would
you continue to do the things that you are
doing? I urge
you to search your heart and make room for
Jesus. He has suffered enough, let's not hurt
Him any more. I know from personal experience if
you will put Jesus first in every area of your
life, you will be happy even in the midst of
trials and heartache.
