Love!

We all can say we know love or have experienced love right? The answer for me will be yes, however I learned that the love is TIME. HUH! Yes that is what I said when I heard that, however when you think about and be real honest with yourself it is true. What does that mean you say? Glad you ask. Love is used as a cliché these days because it sounds like the right thing to say but love is an action word it takes TIME and effort. We often say I love him/her but when you account for your time spent, how much of that is spent with them? I had to ask myself the same thing when it came to my Jesus. I cry and pray and praise His holy name I know in my heart that I love Jesus, and no one can tell me different. A while ago I had to look at the time I was investing in my relationship with Jesus, how can you love someone that you know nothing about or spend no time with? I prayed that but God teaching me to use the time He gives me more wisely, so that I am spending time in prayer and in his word, so that my heart matches my actions. Today I can truly say I love Jesus, not that it was fake the first time, but my time would have said otherwise. Sit back and look at what and how you time is spent, be real with yourself on the time you spend. I can help you out a little further. I used to say to my husband, oh baby I love you so. I do, however when it came to my time I was always at happy hours with the crew from work, never missed a moment at Applebee’s, yes I had to rethink what was I loving. I thank God for change of heart as well as the way of thinking. My pastor always say you have to change the way you think, trust me it's not easy and it won’t happen overnight but I'm a firm believer that prayer changes things, I know that all things are possible in Christ. So the question of the day is what do you love and whatever that may be is your time invested in it. Be blessed and please Smile!
