They said to each other, Did not our hearts burn within us while He talked to us on the road, while He opened to us the Scriptures? Luke 24:32 ESV
The amplifier made a buzz as I unplugged my guitar and placed it in the case. Thirty minutes earlier I had been enjoying the party along with everyone else. I said goodbye to everyone, went home and into a room alone, shut the door, laid on the carpet and repented of everything that I could remember, and it was a lot.
No one had to preach to me or tell me to change my ways. I had a burning inside me to know the Lord that I cannot explain. My whole life changed. All the old desires that I had were replaced with new ones. I understood what Paul meant when he said he counted all of his accomplishments as dung.
If you want to bring someone to the Lord, be nice. Do not point out their faults as they are irrelevant. When they come to Jesus, all these will fall away so quickly you will wonder what happened. When God causes their heart to burn within them nothing else will matter, and nothing will hold them back.
Prayer: Father, please light the fire within me. Cause my heart to burn for You and make Your plan for my life, perfectly clear, in the name of Jesus.
