“After this, the word
of the Lord came to Abram in a vision:
“Do not be afraid,
Abram.
I am your shield, your
very great reward.”
Genesis 15:1
Today’s blog post
builds on yesterday’s.
Head love asks a lot
of questions.
Questions like:
What’s in it for me?
What do I have to
give up?
What is the easiest
path to victory?
How can I avoid any
discomfort and pain?
Heart love also asks
a lot of questions.
Questions like:
How can I be a
blessing to others?
What use of my time
will allow me the greatest opportunity to minister to others?
How can I be a more
effective witness and servant for Christ?
Do you see the
difference?
One is very inward
focused while the other is Christ centered.
Heart love cannot
truly be experienced or shared apart from a relationship with the Holy Spirit.
Head love offers many
options – many ways of making it easier on oneself.
Heart love leaves us
with but one option – obedience.
Don’t misunderstand
though.
Heart love has great
rewards.
None greater than Jesus
Christ Himself.
Head love offers
nothing remotely close to that!
