God doesn't want religious duty. He doesn't want a distracted, half-hearted, 'Fine, I'll read a chapter...now are You happy?' attitude. God wants His word to be a delight to us, so much that we meditate on it day and night.

Because when you’re wildly in love with someone, it changes everything.

When we work for Christ out of obligation, it feels like work. But when we truly love Christ, our work is a manifestation of that love, and it feels like love.

Christ can come back at any time so the one thing you want to have in your life is a focused prayer time.

God's presence is all that matters.

It struck me that many Christians flash around their 'no trans fat' label, trying to convince everyone they are healthy and good. Yet they have no substantive or healthful elements to their faith. It's like the Laodiceans, who thought they had everything until Christ told them they were poor and wretched.

Lukewarm people will serve God and others, but there are limits to how far they will go or how much time, money, and energy they are willing to give.
