So I am one day off due to missing a day last week. I intended to finish on Resurrection Sunday. Today then will be a two- for-one. A post this morning, then an Easter post this afternoon. Enjoy.

MORE ABOUT JESUS by Eliza Hewitt

More about Jesus would I know, More of His grace to others show

More of His saving fullness see, More of His love Who died for me

More about Jesus let me learn, More of His holy will discern

Spirit of God, my teacher be; Showing the things of Christ to me

More about Jesus in His Word, Holding communion with my Lord

Hearing His voice in every line, Making each faithful saying mine

More about Jesus on His throne, Riches in glory all His own

More of His kingdom’s sure increase, More of His coming, Prince of Peace

REFRAIN:

More, more about Jesus, More, more about Jesus

More of His saving fullness see, More of His love who died for me

           To learn more about Jesus everyday should be the desire of each of us. No matter how much I study and how much I learn, I have only scratched the surface of knowing Him. I desire to know more about Him. I am glad that eternity means forever, because that is how long I anticipate it taking to even begin knowing Him.

            In learning more about Him, I will come to understand what He means when I am given direction by Him. I will be able to discern His will more clearly and obey Him more completely. I will come to understand His Words revealed in the Scriptures, written for our guidance.

            One of the greatest ways to learn more of Him is to talk to Him, through prayer, each day. It is in conversing with Him that we learn to hear His voice. We also read of Him in the Bible, so that we can compare what it says to what we hear, to make sure we are hearing His voice and not an imposters.

            Another reason I desire to learn more about Him is to be able to show others I know, whom I care about, what He is like. I long to show His grace and transforming power to those around me who need Him most. If I am going to be greedy and shout more, more, I want it to be a holy greediness to understand my Lord better.

            My prayer for you, is that you will desire to know more about Him also.

Lord, help us desire to know more of You. Reveal Yourself to us as we come to You in prayer, as we read of You in the Bible. Speak to us in an unmistakable voice, one that cuts through the clutter and noise of the world. Help us to know You so that we may live a life pleasing to You and bring others to You for salvation.
