BECAUSE I LOVE
Because I love Zion, I will not keep still. Because my heart yearns for Jerusalem, I cannot remain silent. I will not stop praying for her until her righteousness shines like the dawn, and her salvation blazes like a burning torch.
Isaiah 62:1 NLT
Isaiah 62:1 NLT
When I am weary or disappointed I wouldn’t like to know anything, nor do anything for anyone, but the truth is…..
1. When one loves something or someone, one can’t remain still.
Because my heart yearns for Jerusalem, I cannot remain silent… (Isaiah 62:1 NLT)
I can’t sit still and do nothing for my church Eagles CFC.
I can’t stand by and do nothing when I see the need in my city, in families, in college kids, the homeless, alcoholics, etc.
2. When one loves someone, one can’t stay silent, one frequently talks about that place and person.
Because my heart yearns for Jerusalem, I cannot remain silent… (Isaiah 62:1 NLT)
Because I love my wife, I speak well of her.
Because I love God, that ‘s why I speak to others about Jesus.
Because I love Zion, I will not keep still. Because my heart yearns for Jerusalem, I cannot remain silent. I will not stop praying for her until her righteousness shines like the dawn, and her salvation blazes like a burning torch.
Isaiah 62:1 NLT
Isaiah 62:1 NLT
To be continued…
Think about it:
What or who do you love?
What does that love lead you to do?
Do you tell others about Jesus or what do you often talk about?
