Back to the Beginning

Every so often, electronic devices require a reboot. Experts recommend it at least once a week. Our relationship with God is very much the same. What is the purpose of the reboot? It helps to get rid of any lingering apps running in the background as well as resetting the communication lines within the circuit board. Again, this same concept applies to our souls. After a while, our worship can become stale and slow. We begin to function with less communication in our spirits and run through the motions as if this is something we always do without even thinking about it. And it is at that moment that we must reboot - go back to the beginning. We must, to use biblical terminology, restore our "first love." That's what this is about - reminding myself and reminding you, to go back to the beginning. Remember when you fell in love with Jesus, how easy it was to worship? When you didn't care about anyone else, or what anyone thought about you. When you raised your hands and your voice, even when others stared. When you sang and cried every single time. When you just wanted to be with Him, all day, every day. Remember?

Take a moment and reboot your spirit. Right now. Wherever you are. Just worship Him. Embrace Him. Allow Him to whisper in your ear and love you.
