JONATHAN

Have you ever experienced something that warmed your heart? Perhaps viewing a sunrise or sunset, or just a good conversation with a close friend. Perhaps it was upon hearing good news. Whatever the case may be for you, the warming of the heart to me indicates a sign of peace, hope, joy, and love.

While some things in this life warm our hearts, I believe it is only through a relationship with Jesus Christ in which we will find the truest warming of the heart. On this day 279 years ago, John Wesley, an Anglican Priest in England, felt this same peace of heart and mind. He had been an Anglican priest for several years and even went to the American colonies to convert the Native Americans to Christianity. Feeling like a failure and not forgiven by God, he finally felt this one evening. He and his brother Charles sparked a movement of people called Methodists.

May you know the love Jesus Christ has for you today, and may your heart be warmed in this knowledge.
