One day you'll wake up and saying "good morning, I am praying for you," won't seem so relevant anymore. One day you'll wake up and won't remember how life used to be before they came along. The joy you'd feel when their name popped up on your phone will somehow become usual and unappreciated. You won't interact as much anymore, not even on social media.
One day you'll wake up and forget to mention their name in prayer. And as time moves along, you start forgetting days; birthdays, happy days, memorable days. You'll suddenly see the good in saying goodbye and won't yearn for another good morning! "They just changed" no they didn't, you just didn't notice the signs.
Whenever the fire of pursuit is removed from any kind of relationship, negligence always takes its place. Many people are committed when they are chasing after something or someone and once, they have it they stop trying. But appreciation, true appreciation is never seen in how you chase after something, it's seen in how well you keep that thing once you have it.
The same error occurs in our Christian lives. Since the beginning, we have loved God. Our first love is Him. No morning passes without a conversation with Him. And if you don't spend your nights with Him, nothing else matters. Then time flies and suddenly, we can't even post about God anymore. The thrill and zeal are gone and God becomes just another bystander. We love Him and chase after Him only until we don't anymore. I've seen a lot of people crying saying, "what happened to us." Now imagine God asking them same thing to you this morning. "What happened to us?" "Where did you go?"
"Why did you let go?" "Why did you change?" God's love for you is always on a burning flame! And when we don't reciprocate that love we grieve Him. I pray that you never play around with love that is so lavishly beautiful. I pray you never run out of words to say to Him that will make His heart melt. I pray your pursuit of Him becomes an endless joy! #happysundayeveryone
