 Geronimo!!! :)

"Love... I call it 'Geronimo!'

You can jump from the Empire State building and not care... because Love gives you wings." :)


"The love of Christ controls us." / 2 Corinthians 5:14

How much do you owe to your Lord? Has He ever done anything for you?

Has He forgiven your sins?

Has He covered you with a robe of righteousness?

Has He set your feet upon a rock?

Has He steadied your steps?

Has He prepared heaven for you?

Has He prepared you for heaven?

Has He written your name in His book of Life?

Has He given you countless blessings? His Spirit, His patience, His devotion, His deliverance?

Has He laid up for you a storehouse of mercies, which eye has not seen nor ear heard?



Then obey, give, serve, abandon, risk... motivated by His great love for you. Give not an offering of mere words to a living Redeemer. How will you feel when your Master comes, if you have to confess that you did nothing for Him, but kept your love shut up, like a stagnant pool, neither flowing forth to His people or to His work. Away with such love as that!! What do men think of a love that never shows itself in action? Why, they say, "Open rebuke is better than secret love." Who will accept a love so weak that it does not motivate you to a single deed of self-denial, of generosity, of courage, or zeal! Think how He has loved you, and given himself for you! Do you know the power of that love?



Then let it be like a rushing mighty wind in your soul to sweep out the clouds of your worldliness, and clear away the mists of sin. "For Christ's sake!"—may this cry be this the tongue of fire that dwells upon you. "For Christ's sake!"—may this love give you wings, may it be the heavenly inspiration to lift you from earth, may it be the divine spirit that will make you bold as lions and swift as eagles in your Lord's service.


Love gives wings to the feet of service, and strength to the arms of labor. Focused on God with a constancy that is not to be shaken, resolute to honor Him with a determination that is not to be turned aside, and pressing on with an eagerness never to be wearied, let us show Jesus how His love controls us.

Geronimo!!! :)
