2025-02-0233 minHighRidge Church LongviewFirst Things First: Cultivating A First Love RelationshipWe can do a lot of things without love. For instance, you can work a job without loving your job. But what about when it comes to Christianity? What happens to it when love for Jesus slips from first place? What starts as genuine love can quickly become dead works. We start becoming known for what we're against and not what we're for. We exchange love for lists. The good news is, we can intentionally cultivate a first love relationship with our Savior, and a love for Christ that's grown cold can burn hotter than ever!

We tend to either give the wins or the failures in our life too much of our attention. While God's intention is to walk WITH us, we either lag behind Him because our failures hold us back or run in front of Him because our successes inflate our egos. How can we start choosing intimacy with God over achievement, believing that His presence is even better than His promises?

Why is it so destructive? What are we supposed to handle it when we have the opportunity to participate in it?
