Consider how far you have fallen! Repent and do the things you did at first.\u201d (Rev 2: 4-5)<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Meditation one: What is the temptation that today\u2019s church should guard against? When focusing on the truth, perhaps the knowledge of the Bible is increased, but brothers and sisters may not feel the love of Christ. The fellowship among them just turns into a superficial greeting. It appears to have vitality, yet the unification in love in the church is gone. A church without love, all ministries are in vain. If you forsake love, the church will not be able to attract people to the Lord, and never even be possible to shine for the Lord.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Meditation two: How to restore the love you had at first (First love)? There are three &#8220;R\u2019s&#8221; in the scripture: the mind needs to \u201cRemember\u201d, the heart needs to \u201cRepent\u201d, and the foot needs to \u201cReturn\u201d to the right way. Deeply &#8220;remembering&#8221; how God&#8217;s salvation came, will bring a thorough path to &#8220;repentance.&#8221; But &#8220;repentance&#8221; must bring out true &#8220;action\u201d to return to God. Having a heart of repentance means there is a hope, but if one does not seize the opportunity to repent, despair is doomed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Prayer: Thank God since Your love endures forever. Your faithfulness endures to all generations. May Your Holy Spirit shine on me and restore my first love for you. You laid down Your life on the cross for me. Your sacrificing love saved such low estate person like me. Oh Lord! I would like to respond to Your love with all my heart, and with all my soul, and with all my mind, and with all my strength and commit my whole life to serve You. I pray in the holy name of the Lord Jesus, Amen!<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>\u300a\u4eca\u65e5\u9748\u4fee\u9ed8\u60f3\u300b\uff1a\u300c\u7136\u800c\uff0c\u6709\u4e00\u4ef6\u4e8b\u6211\u8981\u8cac\u5099\u4f60\uff0c\u5c31\u662f\u4f60\u628a\u8d77\u521d\u7684\u611b\u5fc3\u96e2\u68c4\u4e86\u3002\u6240\u4ee5\u61c9\u7576\u56de\u60f3\u4f60\u662f\u5f9e\u54ea\u88e1\u589c\u843d\u7684\uff0c\u4e26\u8981\u6094\u6539\uff0c\u884c\u8d77\u521d\u6240\u884c\u7684\u4e8b\u3002\u300d\uff08\u555f2:4-5\uff09<\/p>","protected":false},"author":8,"featured_media":1450,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[40,38],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-4745","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-bilingual_devotional","category-paul"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"http:\/\/cccb.us\/alpha\/zh\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/4745","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"http:\/\/cccb.us\/alpha\/zh\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"http:\/\/cccb.us\/alpha\/zh\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/cccb.us\/alpha\/zh\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/8"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/cccb.us\/alpha\/zh\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=4745"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"http:\/\/cccb.us\/alpha\/zh\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/4745\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":4746,"href":"http:\/\/cccb.us\/alpha\/zh\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/4745\/revisions\/4746"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/cccb.us\/alpha\/zh\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/1450"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"http:\/\/cccb.us\/alpha\/zh\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=4745"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/cccb.us\/alpha\/zh\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=4745"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/cccb.us\/alpha\/zh\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=4745"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
