I Love You
Psalm 100:1-2 Earth, sing to the LORD! Be happy as you serve the LORD! Come before him with happy songs!
It’s easy, amidst the busyness of life, for us to let our relationships grow cold. Our relationships with people that matter, and our relationship with God.
Romance is wonderful – that first blossom of love. But how many people get married, get on with life and then, before they know it … romance, love, whatever you want to call it, seems to be gone. The flame burns dimmer and dimmer and if you allow it to, eventually, it goes out.
How many husbands walk past their wives in the kitchen without giving them a kiss and a hug? How many wives forget to tell their husbands, “I love you so much”?
It’s the same in our relationship with God. We can allow the flame go out because, well, just because. Somehow, we’re just too busy to say and do the things we need to, to keep the flame burning.
When was the last time you sat down with God and said, “Lord, I love you so much, I just adore you Lord.” When was the last time you praised Him, worshipped Him, sang a song to Him that came from deep down somewhere, in your heart?
For some – it was today. For others – it seems like it was an eternity ago.
Earth, sing to the LORD! Be happy as you serve the LORD! Come before him with happy songs! (Psalm 100:1-2)
You know what that’s called? It’s called worship. And let me tell you something: if you’re perhaps feeling guilty today about the depths to which your relationship with God has sunk. If you just start worshipping, you’ll be amazed at how quickly it comes back.
Because God is ready and waiting, God is yearning for you to be close to Him. Don’t leave it another day.
That’s God’s Word. Fresh … for you … today.
