John 21:15
“So when they had dined, Jesus saith to Simon Peter, Simon, son of Jonas, lovest thou me more than these? He saith unto him, Yea, Lord; thou knowest that I love thee. He saith unto him, Feed my lambs.”
Love is your first step in connecting with God and finding the right kind of love.
A young lady felt pressed by the Holy Spirit to ask her Uber driver if she loved Jesus. She said to God, “I don’t want to ask them it’s too personal. I’ll simply invite them to church.” The Holy Spirit, again pressing another 3 times, ask if she loves me. Finally, she asked and the driver said she is a Christian.
The young lady said, “no, that’s not what I asked you, do you love Jesus?” The person paused and said you know, I never really considered it like that before. A few days later, someone asked the young lady, “did you invite this person to church?” She said yes. The person told her we have been trying to have them join Bible studies for 1-1/2 years and now they are.
As humans, we want to be loved and to love, but it begins with the understanding that if you put God first then you will receive the desires of your heart. Matthew 6:33
