“I will love God because he first loved me. I will obey God because I love God. But if I cannot accept God’s love, I cannot love him in return, and I cannot obey him.”
Do you ever have moments where you have to read something over and over again?
This quote from Donald Miller’s book “Blue Like Jazz” has been something I have been reading over again for the last two weeks. It stays in my mind and I continue to chew on it.
The words describes so much of what’s happening in my life right now. I need to accept God’s love because God first loved me. God will always be that God that first loved me. In my life I obey God because I love him.
Those three words: I love God are short, simple and seem to little but they are so much more then that. It’s about a relationship, a path, a lifestyle and it’s become a part of who I am. I want to love God more because he loved me first. I want to know his word, his path, his journey for my life.
I need to accept it, I need to grasp it, I need to breathe it and I need to live it out.
I accept, I grow, I screw up, I stumble but God still first loved me.
My hearts messy, my path has taking its turns but I continue to love God because he first loved me.
My Alpha, My Omega, My Everything
Everyday He IS FAITHFUL
accept,accept,accept
breathing this in, taking this in and wanting to live this out in my life today
PEACE AND LOVE: JACE
