John Stott tells of an English Salvation Army drummer who was beating his drum so hard that the band leader had to tell him to pipe down a bit and not make so much noise.
In his cockney accent the drummer replied,
“God bless you, sir, since oi’ve been converted, oi’m so ’appy, oi could bust the bloomin’ drum!”
If you’ve never known this joy – let today be the day that experience it. Open up your heart to Jesus. By grace and through faith and repentance, your life will never be the same. If you’ve lost that joy, either through sin, suffering or sorrow – let today be the day you find it again – by putting you trust in Him again, and crying out to him, your voice will be heard.
If you are still undecided, not very sure about this. I employ you to taste and see that The Lord is good.
Take that leap of faith.
