The preacher's sermon on Sunday really dealt with me. He reminded us of what Jesus said to the church in the book of Revelation.
Am I lukewarm?
I haven't been reading my Bible as faithfully as I should.
Am I lukewarm?
I haven't been praying at all times, about everything, in true and sweet communion with Him.
Am I lukewarm?
I'm so busy with life that I'm too busy for Him.
Especially this time of year. Too easy for the focus to be shifted on stuff, and not on Jesus.
I know I don't want to be lukewarm. Jesus came to earth in human form. He wanted to be close to people. He wanted to touch them. He wanted them to get to know Him in a personal way.
With Jesus, it is all about the relationship. He doesn't want me to be a limp, lukewarm dishrag. I hate it when the dishwater gets lukewarm when I'm nearly done washing the dishes. I like dishwater to be good and hot, with steam rising up, so I know the dishes are really coming clean.
I think the Lord wants my life to be like that too.
Bold...
Ready...
Never lukewarm.
