Has My Love For Jesus Grown Cold

Has My Love For Jesus Grown Cold ??? As a young child, I grew up with what I had. There were times when I was happy and sad. I didn’t have many of the conveniences of today. But I’m thankful that my family took time to pray. We had each other. This was to be expected. There was a love for God that we respected. It was the simple things that mattered the most. Whether there was food on the table, or “burnt toast.” As I look back and think of how things used to be. I ask myself; “what has really happened to me?” Do I still have a passionate love for family and God? Does an “old fashioned way of living,” seem quite odd? Am I content with the beauty of Jesus as I once did? Is Christ being honored in the way that I live? Is Christ the invited guest into my heart and home? Do I call on him when I’m feeling afraid and alone? Please Lord Jesus come and speak to my heart. I want to take this moment as a “brand new start.” I want to serve you with a daily love and compassion. No matter if to many, this seems “old fashioned.” I want there to be Holy Ghost fire deep inside. Help me to be humble and take away my pride! This same Jesus I served and honored as a boy… Is the same one who brings unspeakable JOY! With Christ, I’m once again on a “heavenly team.” He’s my life, my righteousness… My everything!
