Contemplate what it means to “love God”. I’ve been reading The Imitation of Christ to my high school students (I loooove not teaching in public schools!) and we’ve been discussing “love”, and how a lot of Christians get it backwards. Some seem to think that we can just conjure up feelings/emotions, and then we’ll want to act in certain ways. I think they’re beginning to understand that if we act in certain ways, that IS love, and then feelings naturally follow…which lead to it being really easy (relatively) to keep loving…. (I’m also in premarital counseling right now, and this is an apt lesson….;)
