FIRST LOVE?

Rev. 2:4 Nevertheless I have somewhat against thee, because thou hast left thy first love.

Jesus calls us to return to our first love. What does first love look like for you? Leave a comment and let us know...

For me first love is...

Passionate
untainted
unequivocal delight in all things Jesus

Not measured by standards of my own making

Joyous expectation of good
Reckless reliance
Innocent abandonment to God and His presence and providence

Content to be with Jesus - no more, no less

Not seeking the validation of someone else's praise

Not ordered or boxed
Not packaged so as not to offend
Raw but innocent
No framework of judgment to judge others y

Embracing any and all who claim the name of Jesus
Presence not performance and principles
A home not a business
A family not a corporation...

How about you?
