How did you learn to love Jesus after you got saved? It’s something that is bothering me because I want to love Him with every part of my being.
My friend: You know why I think so many Christians are tired?
Because they’re being told things like this. Love Jesus with every part of your being.
I understand what this means and it has pretty good intentions, but it’s really dang hard to love something with our entire being all the time. I don’t even know how to measure this sort of standard, and if suddenly I fall short of fiery 100% passion, that means I’ve failed the whole Christian thing. So why even try? It’s an arbitrary impossible parameter that is NOT biblical.
