The One and Only

Today I started a study by Beth Moore- Jesus- 90 Days with the One and Only. I have never been more excited and more in need of a journey as I am for this one. In Beth's introduction she said, "My chief request of God is that He will supernaturally flood my life with an unending, ever-increasing desire for His Son." I think that's a pretty solid request, don't you?

One of the first questions asked in this study was, what words or emotions come to mind when you hear or speak the name Jesus? I think of the truest depiction of agape love we have, I think of the perfect son of God who died for my sins, knowing full well how many times I would turn from Him.

But catch me on an off day, and my heart won't swell at the mention of his name. My pulse won't quicken, my soul won't sing. In a world with so many purposes, so many passions, it is easy to push the one true purpose, the one true passion, aside. I have no greater purpose than to spend my days falling deeply and intimately in love with Jesus. I don't want to lose sight of that.

What emotions do you experience at the mention of our precious Jesus? In a world of fleeting passions, don't lose sight of the one and only. Rather, allow yourself to be consumed by Him!

Because Your love is better than life, my lips will glorify You. Psalm 63:3
