He talked about the "I know, I know, I know." It's amazing how much things we all know. We can tell stories from the bible because we have heard it before but can these stories be applied in our lives?
To translate head knowledge to the spiritual is never easy. I was just reflecting on Deuteronomy 6:5 "Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your strength." Easier said than done. As I grow older by the year, more things to do, the things of these world seems to be more attractive. It is truly a struggle. There is no denying.
The song "This is My Desire" came to my mind. I remembered once Pastor Wilfred said it was hard for him to sing this song as when you sing, you don't sing for the sake of singing but because you mean the words. Now I struggle singing these words. We can easily sing how worthy, how wonderful or even for God to hear our now prayer but to truly desire and love Him with all your heart, mind, soul and strength?
Is this all just head knowledge? I know that I should love God, I know that I should do this and do that. But are we truly doing it and mean what we say? Let's just spend sometime reflecting on this.
