6 "Don't be flip with the sacred. Banter and silliness give no honor to God. Don't reduce holy mysteries to slogans. In trying to be relevant, you're only being cute and inviting sacrilege.Matthew 7:6(The Message)
A relationship with Jesus Christ is a privilege and honor that comes to each one of us who have accepted into our lives this amazing and sacred gift of Jesus Christ living in and through our heart of hearts and this incredible gift comes not because of anything that we have done but only because of God’s unfailing and conditional love for you and me. The love and acceptance that God has for you and I, despite our failures and the blood that was shed in order that we could even participate in such a holy union is real and not a joke and needs to always be held in the highest regard as there is nothing greater; nothing more important; nothing more fulfilling or satisfying; nothing that brings better healing or more joy or more abundant love in our lives than this relationship that I have the privilege of reflecting on each and every morning.
Lord, forgive us for times when we have been flippant and maybe just have taken you and your love a little bit for granted in the midst of the present reality in which we live. We love you and honor you and praise you this morning as you are God and you are our everything and as a result we give you our lives this morning to use for your glory as we reflect your love and enjoy your presence in the midst of your Holy Spirit who guides and directs us into a deeper, more meaningful relationship with you today. Amen
