"Life in the Spirit is the thrill and excitement of falling in love with Jesus Christ."
Brennan Manning, "Reflections for Ragamuffins"
If you have been blessed in your life to have fallen in love, remember how that state of being turned your world upside down. Routines were abandoned, schedules changed; everything was stirred up! I remember one friend telling me that her life was so topsy-turvy that she found herself vacuuming her apartment at 5:00 in the morning! All you want is to spend time with that person--no matter what (and with clean carpets, too, apparently!) Our relationship with Jesus is a love-match. At least it is from Jesus' side. Jesus longs to be part of our day and in our thoughts. Think about when you really discovered Jesus. Not just discovered Jesus in church, but really discovered Jesus in your own life and heart. Didn't everything seem different to you? Didn't you change? Didn't you move things around to spend more time with Jesus? That's the idea. Has Jesus turned your life upside down? He wants to. Love, heidi
