You Are My Joy |
Thine they were, and thou gavest them me; and they have kept thy word. -- John 17:6. Remember, that just as you thank God for Me, so I thank God for His Gift to Me of you. In that hour of My agony on earth, one note of Joy thrilled through the pain. The thought of the souls, given Me by My Father, who had kept My Word. They had not done great deeds, as they did later, for, and in, My Name. They were simple doers of My Word, not hearers only. Just in their daily tasks and ways they kept My Word. You, too, can bring Joy to My Heart by faithful service. Faithful service in the little things. Be faithful. Do your simple tasks for Me. Well done, thou good and faithful servant: thou hast been faithful over a few things, I will make thee ruler over many things: enter thou into the joy of thy lord. Matthew 25:21 |
