Jesus spoke with two of his followers after he rose from the dead:
Luke 24:32 (NIV)
They asked each other, “Were not our hearts burning within us while he talked with us on the road and opened the Scriptures to us?”
God still speaks through Scripture. May your heart burn within you.
I know my heart oughta burn
when I read my Scripture,
but it don’t, though I yearn
to get into that picture.
Logic’s always been my thing;
they call me Mister Spock.
Betimes emotion does take wing,
but those times, I don’t talk.
I keep my feelings close and tight
and wear a poker face
that hides whatever inner light
may aspire from grace.
You may think me cold, a walking frown,
but think again, for I write it down.
Poker face–I call it my fine Scandinavian upbringing. Doesn’t mean I don’t have feelings, but I don’t always wear them on my face.
