The first time I saw my wife I looked at her, gulped nervously, and said, “I’m going to marry you.” I said it primarily because she was cooking spaghetti and I hadn’t eaten a homecooked meal in quite some time. Yet, there was much more to it than that. I looked at her long dark hair, her smile, her complexion and I was smitten. On the first date, we talked. And talked. And talked through the entire night. I was in love. 

Do you remember your first love? Is the romance as strong now as it was then?

Do you remember when you fell in love with the Savior? When you accepted Him as Lord and King of your life? Is your love and excitement for your God as strong now as it was then?

If not, rekindle that relationship with Jesus. Do it now. Start by fasting and prayer. Dedicate mealtime as God time, and instead of eating, talk to God. Heed the warning given in Revelation; return to your first love.
