~Luke 24:32 (ESV)
Introduction
This post was inspired by a song from Loui Giglio's Passion Conferences website. You can hear it by clicking here and then clicking the play button at the bottom and going to the song, "Bravery."
Oh the strange satisfaction that Christ brings to a soul! "Strange" meaning a passionate burning that is foreign to this world. The disciples in Luke 24:32 were unaware that they were talking to the Savior face to face. Yet, their hearts burned within them. Do you find satisfaction in Christ? As the Lord opens His Word to you in your quiet times, are you affected that Christ Himself is opening the Scriptures to you? Does this bring you to a place of burning satisfaction?
This burning is not a mere feeling. This burning is a burning passion of satisfaction, speechlessness, and crying out of our very being for more of God and more of God to be known!
Christian, be not caught up in chasing what the world from which we have been rescued seeks for satisfaction. Passion is spilled by the second by the world on worthless things! Yes, we once lived for worthlessness too, and still would be were it not for God's great mercy on our pitiful souls! But now, O now my fellow Christ follower, our passion is for our King! Our King!
He is breathtaking.
He is lovely.
He is the only Awesome One.
He is the only worthy One of all creation's praise.
Do you hear me now? Oh how He satisfies like no other!
He is the flame of our everlasting passion.
He is the reason we live.
He is the One Who carries us through this life.
He is the light on our circumstances.
He is the SOURCE of our HOPE!
Does your heart not burn within you?
