“The most important thing about us, and the single
greatest factor that determines our fruitfulness as leaders, is the quality of
our heart relationship with Jesus Christ.”
Dr Bill Bright used to say: “It’s possible that the
greatest threat to our walk with
God can be our ministry for
God.” We must never allow our joy and desire for the ministry to
become more important than our joy and desire for Jesus Christ.
The above quotes are taken from the following study on
“Cultivating your first love.”
I remember hearing Dr Bright, the
founding president of Campus Crusade for Christ, say hundreds of times, “please
pray that I don’t leave my first love.”
He understood that the key to being usable to God was maintaining our
‘first love’ relationship with Him.
This study is will help to guide you through a time of reflection
& evaluation concerning your love relationship with
Him I hope that you will come away from
your time in the Word with Him with some concrete plans of how you can
cultivate your 1st love relationship with Jesus.
Note: Please ignore the article attached to this study. Because of the length of the study and
especially the length of the article, I will blog about the article next
week. This is such good material, that I
don’t want you to rush through both in one week.
