Attraction

I find it interesting in my Toastmasters club that people often join for a specific purpose and when that purpose is satisfied we never see them again. Maybe they just want to conquer a fear, polish a speech or promote themselves. Many of us do something similar when we first turn to the Lord. We come to Him wanting a broken heart mended, a marriage healed or a burden lifted. Jesus wants us to be attracted to Him, but not just because of what He can offer and provide for us in the moment.

Gail;

-----Jesus Christ is interested in each moment of your life, but only because He is interested in every moment of it. We must view our lives with the same perspective. The significance of each moment and the provision it receives is in accord with its relationship to all the other moments. Christ is not interested in being called upon for one moment without being called upon for all moments. They are not severable links. They are a chain.

Love you all,
