do it!" John 2:5
How can we know what JESUS says?
We cannot hear HIS voice as the servants
at the wedding heard it.
HE speaks now to us in HIS Word,
and the reverent heart may always
hear what HE says as the sacred
pages are prayerfully pondered.
HE speaks in the conscience
that is kept tender by loyal obeying.
HE speaks in the providence which
brings the present duty to our hand.
There never is any real uncertainty
as to what HE says, if we are truly
intent on knowing HIS will.
"Whatever HE says to you--
do it!!"
It is the doing which is important.
We should never ask questions
nor make suggestions, when
JESUS has spoken--
the one thing for us is obedience.
We should never ask what
the consequences may be,
or what it may cost us--
we are simply to obey.
JESUS knows why HE
wants us to do the thing--
and that should be reason
enough for us.
