It is a good
thing to meditate on:
"Jesus
loves me, this I know,
For the Bible
tells me so. . ."
All over
the English-speaking world, if you sing this song, everyone knows
it. You can sing it in prisons, in sophistry, in nursing homes
where there are Alzheimer's patients and in schools.
It's simple and it's real.
When things seem to crumble, sing
the simple little Sunday School songs that tell Truth. You are
not whistling in the dark - you are going over the foundation
again.
In fact, the real truth is, He
loves you so much, the Bible says the human mind cannot even
conceive of the delights prepared for those who will respond
to His wooing.
How do you know it? Because the
Bible says so.
How do you know the Bible is not
mistaken?
Because when you gave your life
to Christ, you became a dwelling place for the Holy Spirit, and
if you really meant it when you made the Lord your Lord,
you can't go back.
You can try, but you absolutely
can't, any more than an infant can crawl back into the womb.
So, we have been given One Who
will allow a deposit of Truth - the sight of it comes through
the Word of God, and every page brings us back to the everlasting,
overwhelming, unflagging love of God. |
