Again, in this part, we take a look at a man who had a large heart
in the Bible. His name was Elisha. I would not be going into details of
this story but you can read it up in 2 Kings 6:22-23. Elisha was
uncommon and had a large heart. No wonder God gave him a distinguished
place in human and divine history. The same awaits you as you seek work
in the uncommon.
Sometimes, Heaven’s demands on us are weighty and
somehow, you feel you will break under the load of such divine demands.
But the word says, “This is the love of God, that we keep his
commandments and his commandments are not grievous” (painful and
killing) – 1 John 5:3. When the word says, “do good to them that hate
you” it does not make sense. But you must remember that the ways of God
are past finding out sometimes. He says, “For my thoughts are not your
thoughts, neither are my ways your ways.” –Isaiah 55:8.
Why don’t
you just sacrifice yourself at least once, to save other people’s lives?
What is this suffering for Christ we talk about most times in Sunday
school? Isn’t it all about having a large heart? Try as much as possible
to suffer for Christ, no matter what it will cost you. You can do all
things through Christ who strengthens you. Never forget: living an
uncommon life stimulates uncommon testimonies. Is your heart large?
