Remember Your First Love

I saw this one time and had to save it.....be it completely flustered and fumbling, 

I really, really like it :)

Well, at least I remembered one thing right...ha!

The topic of remembering my first love has come to my mind a few times today.  The first was actually after church when I was chatting with a friend and two ladies approached us.  One of them said, "I have been encouraging my friend to tell you something."  I said I was ready to listen and she told me that she had accepted Christ last week during our service and her friend thought it would be a good idea to tell someone about it.  She didn't quite know what all to say, but she was certainly grinning from ear to ear!  I encouraged her in her decision and for having the courage to begin telling others her story.

Then, during our choir practice, Brad shared a story from a meeting he had had earlier this week about a different lady who had come to know Christ as she was led to salvation by a lady from her church.  The lady who led her to Christ had been a Christian for a very long time and wanted to know what it was like to accept Christ later in life, so she asked her if she could describe what it was like to be saved.  She thought for a moment, then said, "There is nothing to compare it to."

Isn't that the best answer?!  THERE IS NOTHING TO COMPARE IT TO!

Sometimes, in the middle of all the church stuff....the planning....the practicing....the decisions....the busyness....I forget.

But, today I remembered...I love because He first loved me.
