The longing of our heart for love and the desire in our
hearts for companionship is as a result of missing fellowship with God. We are
looking for a way to fill that void. Some married and those in a relationship
realise that companionship does not satisfy that deep desire longing in your
heart, cos when you lie down none of you knows what goes through the other person's
heart. All we do is try to bridge the gap, have a common ground.
No matter the number of relationships we enter into and
the company we keep, we'll still see that dat longing is still there. For me it
is the desire for someone to see me as I am to see that my intentions are good
to see the passion in my heart, to see how much rate I put into work, no matter
how much I put into making people see me they just don't interpret me very
well. I have come to realise that Christ is the only one that can know one as
one should be fully known. He actually knows us more than we know ourselves.
Many of us have given our hearts to him, but it seems
that is not enough.
You see society has defined the number of time we can
spend with our loved ones with the advent of work and entertainment. A working
class husband cannot spend more than 4 solid hours with his wife cos sleep
requires his attention tv also craves for attention Phone and social media also
line up. Even when we realise that Christ is the only one that can quench our
thirst. Society will never allow us spend adequate time with him.
So our dissatisfaction continues even with Christ...
Our Priority determines to what extent the void in our
hearts will be filled. sacrifice will work.
What are we willing to sacrifice to get the optimum
satisfaction we want from our relationship with Christ?
I believe there is an amount of time we will spend with
him that will satisfy and carry us through the day.
What are we willing to sacrifice??
"Actually in his original intent he meant for us to
lose face Luke 9:23 deny yourself, cross carried daily and follow me. Matt
11:28-30 come with your heavy burden and yoke I'll help you with them. But in
exchange for those heavy burden and yoke take my yoke and learn of me. It is
easy and light"
