FALL IN LOVE EVERYDAY

Do you remember the first time you fell in LOVE? It may have been a while ago or the other day,  remember?   Remember the feelings and the emotions that came with it. How you thought about the person all the time. Wanted to see them all the time, be with them night and day. Couldn't eat or sleep until they were there or you heard their voice again. Remember?  You always wanted to talk to them on the phone (mainly breathing not much talking). You thought they  were the most beautiful/handsome person you ever saw. You would demonstrate your love by doing things such as holding hands,opening doors(gentlemen), sitting close,  k-i-s-s-i-n-g, carrying books, sharing lockers, passing notes, (students), doing things together such as homework, going to sporting events, recreational stuff, picnics,  love- ins (my favorite). Remember?  Doing nice things  that say "I love you" for eachother. Remember? I can remember my former spouse doing laundry for me at a particular time when I wasn't up to it and I thought that was so special. This was in the 1980's a much different time than now. How about the times you enjoyed your favorite movie, or song(s), or even singer(s). I remember  one of our favorite songs back in the day was  FIRE AND DESIRE by the late great Rick James and Teena Marie. Remember that one ? It would 'send' me.  Also songs called REUNITED, ALL  OUT OF LOVE (Air Supply), LOST IN LOVE. Singers that brought the house down were artist like The Ojays, The Bee Gees, L.T.D., The Spinners, Earth Wind and Fire, Billy Ocean. Remember?  How bout the movies, I love First Knight.  Endless Love . Just to name a few.  All these bring back memories of falling in LOVE for the first time. I have been praying about LOVE and the Glorious Holy Spirit dropped in my heart that we should fall in LOVE everyday!! With a LOVE like the LOVER that LOVES us why not? He is so  GOOD to us as Psalm 107:1-2 states His  mercy endureth forever and we have been redeemed  or bought us with a price that no other could pay. That sounds a lot like He LOVES us  and is GOOD to us. Verses 31-33 says that "Oh that men would praise The LORD for HIS goodness, exalt HIM in the congregations of people', HE turns dry places into watersprings and is ours, from the LOVER HIMSELF. His presence is always with us no matter where we are , how we got there, whatever. (Psalm 139 :7-13)  Fix your heart on the ONE who does GOOD things for us (Psalm 107: 20-21,41),(Psalm 91:11,4:7, 16: 11). That is what the ONE who LOVES you does for you. Your first emotional LOVE from back then did nice things for you, and so we now have a LOVER that is forever and eternal and we can expect GOOD things from HIM more so. When we cry out to HIM, call to HIM, HE hears us (Psalm 107: 13-14, 26-30, 91:15). Try it!! Call to HIM in your distress or any area: sickness,desperation, whatever it may be call to HIM in FAITH and watch HIM perform HIS WORD!!  HE'S in LOVE with us  and nothing can stop that or cause it to be uprooted. It is firm as a foundation that can not be destroyed.  (Psalm 107: 43,) (Romans 8:35-39), (1John 4:8-11). The LOVE BOOK says that Christ may dwell in our hearts by FAITH and that we being rooted and grounded in LOVE, may be able to comprehend how wide, long, deep, and high, HIS LOVE is towards us. (Ephesians2:16-19). Hallelujah!!! This is so much more profound than any first LOVE. It takes my breath away when I think about this AWESOME LOVE all for me !!! BLESSED BE THE NAME OF GOD!! UNTO HIM BE ALL THE GLORY!!! I can feel my praise coming on and it is uncontainable.  When I think about the LOVE GOD has for me and the things HE has done for me, I can't help it I shout GLORY, GLORY,!!!!! He satisfies me with such good things in HIM,(Psalm 107:9, 91: 16). It feels like Easter everyday in my heart. Shouting Praises to My LORD!!  GLORY TO GOD!!! Fall in LOVE everyday. It's wonderful!!  He said to LOVE as I  have LOVED you (John 13:34) and HE has LOVED me tremendously. Let me suggest to you my FAITHFUL friend, FALL  IN LOVE EVERYDAY. You will experience OVERFLOW JOY.  That is JESUS JOY that is amped up at all times. Try it!!! BE BLESSED OF GOD!!! I LOVE YOU, GOD LOVES YOU and HE IS LORD!!! Ephesians 2 (4-13)...
