Think of someone you know that really loves something. It could be someone who loves sports, cars, music, anything. Just think of one person who loves something with all that they have. A person who would stay up past midnight watching a football game, or someone who would spend tons of money on their dream car. These are the kinds of people who have serious love for material things. They can’t get enough of it. You know those music lovers, they always have music on and they are always telling you about the latest new bands. People become addicted to things they love.
Deutoronomy 6:4-6
4 “Listen, O Israel! The Lord is our God, the Lord alone.[a] 5 And you must love the Lord your God with all your heart, all your soul, and all your strength. 6 And you must commit yourselves wholeheartedly to these commands that I am giving you today.
SO WHAT?
Is that how you love God? Are you willing to spend hours with Him, because you can’t get enough of Him? Take some time and think about the things you love, do any of them take up more of your time that Jesus? If they do you should take some time and pray about them. Make sure they are not an idol to you. We are suppose to love God with all we have everyday, not what is left for Him Sundays.
Spend extra time with God today and allow Him to transform some of things you love.
