Pain. Humbling. Sad.
It's a tough thing to swallow but it's a reality. I am an unskilled handler of God's Word.
Through AF, my preparation for sessions, my execution of sessions, Sunday service, it just reveals how lousy and irreverent I have been treating the Word of God.
Feels like there's a need to start from the basics, from scratch again.
Sunday service yesterday delivered the punch. John 14:7 says:
7 If you abide in me, and my words abide in you, ask whatever you wish, and it will be done for you.
How much of God's word is abiding in me? Studying His Word has become more like a responsibility and a "job" I have to do in order to deliver my sessions and homework. Where is the love? Lest I become like the church of Ephesus who were charged with losing their first love, I HAVE to do something about it.
