What Thrills Your Soul?
November 8, 2010
All that thrills my soul is Jesus / He is
more than life to me.
more than life to me.
Because your steadfast love is better than life, my lips will
praise you. Psalm 63:3
Eighteen-year-old Aimee peered out the plane window, excited
about her first flight. As she contemplated a summer in Wyoming
with her sister, she mulled over the words of a hymn that had
been bothering her. All that thrills my soul is Jesus / He is
more than life to me. She got excited about many things - boys,
cars, this summer trip - but though she regularly attended
church, Jesus didn't thrill her soul.
Over the next three months in Wyoming, Aimee read several
chapters in the Bible each day and became involved in a ministry,
surrounding herself with Christian friends. The love of Jesus
became so real to her that on the plane ride home she quietly
sang the old hymn with renewed confidence.
For what would you rather die than do without? David said for him
it was God's love. What about Him excites you? If you can't
honestly say, set aside some time to pray and read Scripture,
asking Him to reveal Himself to you in a new way. Then intercede
that the country's leaders would turn from outward religion to a
real change of heart, relationship with Christ, and fellowship in
God's family of believers.

I live in Oxdrift my passion is the word of God and Bible studies. I love to encourage others to read the Bible and to share their personal testimony. I first started to read my Bible (which was a gift from a friend) back in 1982. After several weeks of reading this precious book I became aware how real the people were and I started to became more and more fascinated about the wonderful living scenes, their personalities and their lives were so real that I couldn't put my Bible down. The more I read the more I felt real freedom in my life, wonderful things unfolded day by day such as healings, miracles and magnificent experiences. First time in my life fear disappear, my kidneys were totally healed, peace and joy flooded my life. In April 15, 2003, after seeking and praying for several weeks I met our precious saviour who baptized me with His presence, fire fall on me it touched the top of my head and ever so gently travel through my body and left at the end of my toes, this was such a phenomenal experience that my life was for ever change. Jesus became my passionate friend who has never fail me, He has always been there for me through all these years. Recently He call me to start "The voice of Truth Minitries" I love to share my passion for the work of God with friends and I am thankful for those who stand with me to make this Ministry a reality.
