Stay Hot!

Stay Hot !

There’s a brilliant, rich, handsome guy named Chris. He loves his girl so much, and Luna — that lucky girl— often tell Chris how she loves him with all her heart. In fact, secretly Luna loves to flirt around and dates many guys, and actually what she wants most from Chris is...his money & gifts! Somehow, Chris knows about his girl’s behavior, but because he really loves her, he remains faithful to her, and willing to do his best for her happiness. Can you imagine how Chris feels anytime Luna says how much she loves him?

Well, we might criticize Luna, but in our relationship with God, how many of us know that we often behave like Luna? (of course not everyone of us, but definitely many of us)

We often sing or say how much we love God, how much we want Him, how much we adore Him ... bla...bla...bla.. but after that, we ‘flirt’ and date many other ‘gods’ (our job, our video game, our study, our family, etc —any other things we choose to love besides God) and we only looking for Him when we're in trouble, when we need money to pay our bills and satisfy our endless needs...

But God is good; He is faithful to us despite all that we do to Him. He still loves us with His unconditional love.

How you feel if you receive a fake love from someone you love so dearly with your true love? It really hurts, doesn’t it? I’m sure we don’t want to hurt God like that. We give Him our lip service, and then we ask Him to do this and that as if He is our servant. His desire is to have a deep and meaningful relationship with us, that’s why He created us in His own image. He wants to share His love to a being who has His likeness.

Let’s consider these verses:

I know you inside and out, and find little to my liking. You're not cold, you're not hot—far better to be either cold or hot! You're stale. You're stagnant. You make me want to vomit.

(Revelation 3:15-16, MSG) So, let’s stay hot for God :) Let’s be like David, “the man after God’s own heart” What was David’s desire?...

I'm asking God for one thing, only one thing: To live with him in his house my whole life long. I'll contemplate his beauty; I'll study at his feet. (Psalm 27:4,MSG)

Let’s focus our eyes on the Giver Himself, not on His gifts only.... Love Him with all our heart & mind, and hold on to His promises, and you will see that His goodness and blessings are chasing you, all the days of your life. You will see His goodness flooding you beyond measure. One of His names is El-Shadai, means “God of more than enough.” Let’s experience Him as El-Shadai. All we need to do is just focus our eyes on the Giver Himself, and keep on fire!

Stay hot, guys!

In His love, Dee
