Burning Hearts

And they said one to another,
"Did not our heart burn within us while He talked with us by the way, and while He opened to us the scriptures?

It’sbeen said that Lenten season is the Christians' 'Spring Training'. I liked that when I read it years ago and decided to use this time of year to draw closer to the Lord through prayer, fasting, and a closer look at Christs' life and ministry in scripture. "That I may know Him and the power of His resurrection and the fellowship of His suffering, being conformed to His death." Philippians 3:10

Judea

John 3:22-36
After leaving Jerusalem Jesus and His disciples travel northward into the countryside of Judea and begin baptizing.  John (the baptist) was also baptizing in the area near Salim.  When a dispute arose between John and Jesus' disciples regarding baptism John's disciples came to him disturbed that people where beginning to follow Jesus now and leaving John.  John graciously clarifies to his disciples his own ministry that has been given to him by God and helps them to understand that his time is coming to an end.  John gives us a perfect illustration of humility and a true walk with the Lord.  It is Jesus who is to be exalted not ourselves...if we glory in anything let it be as in Jeremiah 9:24, "...That he understands and knows Me, that I am the Lord, exercising lovingkindness, judgment and righteousness in the earth.  For in these I delight", says the Lord.
