"Sometimes you have to watch somebody love something before you can love it yourself…"
What if we really grasped how awesome, how powerful, how deep God's love is for us?
I have been thinking a lot about God's love lately. He has been drawing me deeper into it, deeper into Himself.
And I have been asking myself this question, or maybe God has been asking me: What if you really and truly believed my love and received my love and lived in it the way I intend for you to?
Answer: It could change everything and everyone…
Are people being drawn to Jesus because of my love for Him? Are people falling in love with Him because of my passion? Do people see the realness of my relationship with Him and want what I have?
If not, there’s a problem.
I like if-then statements. If something happens, then something else will happen.
My loving Jesus should be an if-then statement.
If I am loving Jesus, then others should fall in love with Him too.
Man, this is challenging me.
I want to receive Jesus’ love so much and so deeply so that the One who found me can show Himself to others so that they fall in love with Him too, simply from watching me love Him.
The quote above is from the movie, Blue Like Jazz. I recommend the book and the movie. 🙂
