Self-reflection of what it means to desire God



Hate the sin you once and love the righteousness you once ignored. Is that a reality in your life?

Is God only an accessory in your life?

“Everyone knows they are a sinner. They just don’t know how heinous and terrible that is. Nor do they want to let go of the very thing that they choose to drink down as though it were water.”
What do you choose to drink down today? Is it the spring of living water ( = God)?
Do you truly desire God?

The love of God is not God's making much of us, but God's saving us from self-centeredness so that we can enjoy making much of him forever. And our love to others is not our making much of them, but helping them to find satisfaction in making much of God. True love aims at satisfying people in the glory of God.
~ John Piper

Do you truly love God and the people around you?

Pray for yourself that your will desire God more, that your love for God will grow stronger and that your hatred for sin will also grow stronger. Ask God to continue His work in your heart.

Pray for the congregation/your friends that their hearts will not harden against God, that their hearts will be changed and renewed to seek God, the spring of living water , taste and see that the Lord is good. Ask God to continue His work in their hearts.

主, 将你大爱植我心田.
