If you Fall in love with my flowers and don’t know my roots, Shame on you

I came across of painting and it was amazing, but more amazing were the words.  It hit me right where it hurts. Now the lady who wrote it was talking about her relationship with a man, but as I read it, God hit me like a ton of bricks.  I am so in love with the pretty side of Jesus.  I know what to say and how to say it.  The truth is when it comes to the down dirty and gritty side of following Christ, I am not consistent.  I will give into my feelings almost every time.  They make it easy to go numb, it feels like I don’t want to feel and then I turn on the numbing button. When I read this it sunk in that if I truly want to follow Christ, if I truly want to be a man of God, If I truly want to be a great friend, If I truly want to be a great husband and If I truly want to be a great father… Then I better get to knowing God’s roots!!  It will only be through allowing God to meet me where he found for us to start the way I want to. Thankfully, it is not up to me! Amen!

One Love, One King, All Christ!
