We all know that moment when your eyes meet and for the first time you feel that connection! Your eyes dance and your heart skips a beat and then races and all of a sudden you realize.....you're madly in love!
Well that's what the Holy Spirit does with us when we first come to salvation, He helps us to fall in love with Jesus. There is no way that we can fully grasp the true depth of Christ's love for us, but in that moment, we see His sacrifice, we see His death and something in our spirit recognizes that we need Him in our lives and we ask for forgiveness and receive Him as Lord for the very first time. And this is all done, by faith! We don't understand it all but we believe.
This will be our first encounter with faith. In the months after that God woes us with His love and faithfulness, He shows us His might and we learn to trust in Him. This is the start of our journey of faith and as we grow in God our faith develops and we grow stronger in our relationship with our living God.
Are you thinking, "What have I missed, why have I not felt love struck by God?" Well friend then I encourage you today to surrender your heart to Jesus and His love will certainly sweep you away afresh and in a new and living way.
