How's ur journey with God in these few days of Love so far?? God has really been speaking to me through the book... although now its only the third day of 40 days of Love, it really spoke alot to me aye.... :) I believe that He is doing amazing work in us through these 40 days of love right?

Well today's passage is on Love God with ALL your heart. Your heart is where you feel. This is so true that all our emotions and feelings come from our heart. Pastor Tom Holladay actually gave us some practical tips to love God with all our heart, which is Talk to God out loud and with Emotion.

As Christian, we have the privilege to be children of God and we have the privilege to call God our Heavenly Father. Yup, God is indeed our Father. He created us, He had us in mind even before everything is formed, He had plans for us, and the most important fact is HE LOVES US. Just as how our earthly dad loves us, His love for us is much more deeper and stronger!!

So how to show our love to our Heavenly Father?? For me, whenever I go back to Kuching (my home), I always spend time talking to my dad. We talked about my life here, my struggles, my happiness, my feelings and sometimes talked about crap as well. HAHA... Although most of the time its me talking, my dad will never walked away. But in fact he is very happy whenever we have those kind of "daddy-daughter" talk. Because this is the time when I really talk to him from my heart and with emotions (I think he feels loved??).

Same to our Heavenly Father God as well, I believe that God will be pleased if we just opened up our heart to Him and just tell Him our feelings, struggles, emotions and so forth in our prayer to Him. In fact, prayer doesn't need to be so formal, logic, and biblical. In our quiet time, we can just talk to Him as how we talk to our parents and friends, just talk to Him with emotions and feelings to Him. So kids, we should start challenging ourselves to really think about it and do it for our God who wants us to draw closer to Him in Love and relationships. :)

Lotsa Love,
