know and believe...

We have come to know and have believed the love which God has for us.
1 John 4:16

Who is our first love? 
We spend our days dealing with and distracted by so many things of this fleshly life. Our time just seems to evaporate each day - the tyranny of the urgent ruling over us. The constant tug and pull of our modern lives.
Add to this we have our routines that we become mired in and there can be little time that remains for that which is truly important.
In the hustle and bustle of every day living we can end up neglecting our first love...even begin to take Him for granted. Setting Him aside for when things get tough and struggles arise.
Lord, I do not want to do that any more! Forgive me for taking You for granted, for setting You on the back burner of my life at times.
I know and believe the love that You have for me...let me not allow the issues of this world to distract me from what's truly important...because You first loved me!
