I heard a wonderful message from a young preacher this morning from Psalm 95. He was calm and deliberate. Accurate and clear with his exposition, and didn’t try to impress with cleverness. He was simply vulnerable and honest with the text. It was encouraging and a glory to the God he serves and that we both love. And then this thought . . .
Love must always be protected and never taken for granted.
Could I Turn Away from Love?
Could I turn away from Love?
Is that possible?
Could I walk away from Perfection?
Could my life be squandered and corrupted
after all these years?Is it really possible for me to move astray from the Truth?
Could I stumble into a wasted life and meaningless days?
Could I harden my heart,
become brittle and stoney, after being gifted a heart of flesh?
Could I lose my way and wander in darkness?
Could I pivot from reality and abandon my first love?
Could Your love lose its power?
Could I forget the wonders of Your sacrifice?
Could I fail to be mesmerized by the price that was paid?Don’t let it happen Lord!
Wrap me up in your arms.
Bind me with shackles.
I want no freedom.
I want only to be a sheep of Your pasture.
I want only the hand you extend.Pierce my ear and make me Your bondservant
forever.
Let us pray for one another and remember to always protect our love for the Lord Jesus Christ.
