THE BURNING HEART


Today I went through Luk24-32 and I found the words like this that "Wasn't it like a fire burning in us when he talked to us on the road and explained the scripture to us?" I thought about on these words and i too felt that some light is shining in my thoughts also.
Yes there Jesus spoke to them and they had the burning sensation in their heart.That means when they heard the word of god ,their hearts got fired and burn. Yes I know the word of god is so powerful, so when I hear the word of god I suppose to have the same feeling,the burning sensation in my heart too.
Then I thought that what are the functions of the fire?
About the functions of fire what I undestood is that fire cleans the area .We use to fire the wastes and clean the area and make it ready for good and useful purpose.Then fire use to melt the hard metals ,and makes them useful instruments for our daily life.This same fire is used to cook the food which gives energy in our lives.Then the same fire gives light in the darkness and help us to walk in the right path which leads us in to a safe place.Again the same fire make us warm in the cold which destroys our enthusiasm to go forward in our life and to our destiny.
If i have fire in me when i hear the word of god all these functions of fire will have to take place in me.The fire of god should cleans my heart.ALL the impure feelings,thoughts,which makes a person unclean vanish from him.He will have a new heart.There we can see a transformed heart.


As fire melt the hard metals ,the fire of the word of god melts the rock like hearts, and make them his instruments for his kingdom.When we use the fire to cook food , we are actually acquiring the energy for our


life.When the word of god burns in us we too get the sufficint enrgy and strength to live the life which Jesus led in this world.
Fire gives light in the darkness .When the divine fire comes, the dark corner of our inner heart also shines and that leads us to the narrow path of the kingdom of god and helps us to walk smoothly and finally leads us to God.As the fire gives warm in the cold and gives a new enthusiam to act again and work the fire of God gives a new enthusiasm .An enthusiasm to pray more,to do good things,desire to live for God and die for him.A real enthusiasm to lead a christ oriented life,to taste the sweetness of his words and finally to offer ones life to spread his word and the kingdom of god.
Oh JESUS the living word.u have given me these thoughts,but lord I beg u to give me the fire in my heart.Help me to get burned by u r fire.LOrd help me , help me, help me,,,,,,my lord.I would like to have u r fire in me.Lord i want to get changed.Transform me.
Again if we misuse the fire that will burn and destroy everything.If we misuse god and his name I think his fire may burn us.
LORD HELP ME WALK ALL WAYS WITH YOU.Teach me to forget my self and remember only you. Thank you my dear jesus christ.I love u. amen. u r jeril
