Like a Fire

Jeremiah 20:9 says, "His Word is in my heart like a fire..." I wonder, is this how you feel about His Word today? Does it burn within you? Jeremiah found himself in a trying time and almost quit the ministry, but could not because the Word was alive in Him. Remember that we live by faith and that faith is fed by the Word. We can not live by feelings or emotions. We can not live by what we can see. We live by what we believe. There are times when I can not see God in the situation, but it does not mean that He is not there. There are times when I can not feel Him, but again, it does not mean that He is not there. I pray that His Word will be a fire in me. I want it to be a passion in my soul. I want to hunger for it and go after God through it. I want to be able to hear His voice through it and be able to speak it into the lives of others. If we are not careful we can get away from His Word and not know that we have. We must discipline ourselves to daily take the bread that He has for us. Pray that His Word will be a fire in you today. God bless.
