What effect does Jesus have upon you? Can you say with the song writer of old:
“My heart is stirred when-e'er I think of Jesus,
That blessed name which sets the captive free -

What takes place in your heart when you hear His name; whither it be in song, preaching, fellowship, prayer, or literature? Are you moved beyond words? Is there an inward elation the exceeds all other highs in your Christian life?
Peter tells us in his small epistle that there is a joy that is connected with Him that there are no words for, “Whom having not seen, ye love; in whom, though now ye see Him not, yet believing, ye rejoice with joy unspeakable and full of glory.”~ 1 Pet. 1:8
All the world’s vocabulary, as well as that in eternity, is not and will not, be sufficient to express what He means to a Spirit-Filled believer!~ rds
