As we yield to Jesus, He will live through us, He will be glorified and His work will be done.
1 Corinthians 15:58 Therefore, my beloved brethren, be ye stedfast, unmoveable, always abounding in the work of the Lord, forasmuch as ye know that your labour is not in vain in the Lord.
2 Peter 3:18 But grow in grace, and in the knowledge of our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ. To him be glory both now and for ever. Amen.
It seems the older I get, as I serve the Lord, I grow more in grace and I learn more about Jesus.
I’m sure the good Lord planned it that way because my aged body gets broken more often and He answers more of my prayers.
The Longer I Serve Him The Sweeter He Grows
_____________________________
Since I started for the Kingdom, — Since my life He controls, — Since I gave my heart to Jesus, — The longer I serve Him, — The sweeter He grows.
Chorus:
The longer serve Him, the sweeter He grows, — The more that I love Him, more love He bestows; — Each day is like heaven, my heart overflows, — The longer I serve Him, the sweeter He grows.
Ev'ry need He is supplying, — Plenteous grace He bestows; — Ev'ry day my way gets brighter, — The longer I serve Him, — The sweeter He grows.
