If you confess with your lips that Jesus is Lord and believe in your heart that God
raised him from the dead, you will be saved.
There are people who have never really had Christ make a difference in their lives. These folks
are
active in church. They support all the right causes. But they are whistling tunes that belie what is
really missing in their hearts. They admire Christ, they identify with his teachings, but they cannot
be said to love him. Don't let Jesus be a stranger in your heart.
(Romans 10:9
NRSV)
Billy Graham tells a story about a family from South Carolina who went to New York City for a
vacation. They told all their friends they would attend the Broadway play, MY FAIR LADY.
Unfortunately, the play was sold out and they couldn't obtain tickets. They were disappointed.
They were also embarrassed to have to go back home and tell their friends they missed the
highlight of their trip. So they decided to do the next best thing. They picked up discarded tickets,
purchased a program, and bought the musical tapes. In their motel room they learned all the songs
and reviewed the program. Back home they sang and whistled the tunes to all of MY FAIR
LADY's hits hoping no one would suspect they never saw it.
Dear God, fill me full of a great love of Jesus. Amen.
