Good Morning,
I just sat down at my desk with a hot cup of Door County Bourbon Pecan Pie Coffee and it is time to write.
Revelation 3:15-17 NKJV I know your works, that you are neither cold , nor hot. I could wish you were cold or hot. 16. So then because you are lukewarm and neither cold nor hot, I will vomit you out of my mouth. 17. Because you say "I am rich, have become wealthy, and have need of nothing' and do not know that you are wretched , miserable, poor, blind and naked.
There is only one thing wrong with a hot cup of coffee. Sooner or later the coffee grows cold. No matter how much I spend on insulated cups or bottles the coffee still grows cold. I once had a coffee mug that would plug into an electrical outlet in the truck. It kept the coffee hot as long as it was plugged in. I was one happy camper with that apparatus, until it shorted out and almost burned up my Jeep.
So I have concluded that the coffee needs to be consumed while it is hot or if possible rewarmed safely.
So where is my point in all of this? Relationships need to be rewarmed now and then, especially our walk with the Lord. Daily prayer, Scripture reading and service to the Lord keep the relationship fresh and hot. It is the same way with marriage, and friendships. You have to keep them fresh or they lose their appeal and all the reminiscing in the world can't keep the relationship fresh.
So for today, the number one importance is the relationship with God. If that one is maintained, all of the others will fall into place and you will reap the benefits of God directing your paths and your other relationships.
Food for thought on this Wednesday!
Marty
