The reason for my title is very simple : LOVING JESUS! Let me ask a question. Have ever thought what Christianity is all about? Or What should you do after you become a christian?What is your purpose as a Christian?
2 weeks ago, i was praying in my room.After praying , i waited on God and do some reflection.SUDDENLY,God spoke to my heart,YOU have left your first love.NO WAY!!![Thats my first reaction] How can it be? I have done so much for You Jesus , pray so much to You, worship so much!!!You mean i have left my first love,i have love u less?It cant be! I thought God spoke to the wrong person!!!haha[how silly]
Minutes later,i ask myself,what have i accomplished for the past few weeks of my life? NOTHING! You might be wondering why i said to myself nothing! First,i realized i have done so much thinking that i am doing it for God however no!I am doing it not because i love God but because i love to do it and felt force to do it.Because my motivation was not because i love God , i felt i have accomplished nothing. Secondly,how much has i grown and mature as a believer? What do i mean by grow? I mean have i know Jesus deeper? Have i love Jesus deeper?Have i change from glory to glory to be more like Jesus?Am i closer to God? Sadly,not much or all this.
I felt so depress after all this thoughts.I felt an emptiness in my heart.Tears started to flow down my cheek.And i pray,"Jesus forgive me for leaving my first love.I am desperate for you,for more of you in my life.Draw me closer and deeper in love with you,help me to love you more and more each and everyday!"
Friends , have we lost our first love ? Have christianity become a religion without the presence of GOD? Only you know the answer.=]
JESUS DIE TO RESTORE THE RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN MAN AND GOD!HE TAKE AWAY ALL OUR SINS SO THAT WE CAN BE WITH GOD AND HAVE EXCESS TO HIS PRESENCE.
2 COR 5:19
Now all things are of God, who has reconciled us to Himself through Jesus Christ, and has given us the ministry of reconciliation, 19 that is, that God was in Christ reconciling the world to Himself, not imputing their trespasses to them, and has committed to us the word of reconciliation.
Relationship with God is about loving Him , knowing Him.Can you you love anyone who you do not know? Why love him?
1 john 4 :19 We love Him because He first loved us.
Mark 12:30 And you shall love the LORD your God with all your heart, with all your soul, with all your mind, and with all your strength.ÂThis is the first commandment. Christianity will be a burden if it is not about loving Jesus because it is just another duty in your life.However is will be true joy, peace,rest when is it firstly and simply loving Jesus!
Friends lets experience the true christianity, LOVING JESUS.
