God is ashamed at us for thinking we can get away with it time after time. We say we want to love God, but we don't really want to. So we live with regret and constant suffering of the same mistake and never grow. Its either His love we live for, or our love we live for. Its the easy way to live, or the way He chose to live, the hard way in everything. When we want to get better at a sport, we push ourselves. When we want to get a good grade, we study hard. When we want to get a gift for a loved one, we search forever. Do we do the same for God? Are we really wanting or even preparing ourselves to serve Him and die to self? why is it so hard to die to self?

God is ashamed at us for thinking we can get away with it time after time.
We say we want to love God, but we don’t really want to.
So we live with regret and constant suffering of the same mistake and never grow.
Its either His love we live for, or our love we live for.
Its the easy way to live, or the way He chose to live, the hard way in everything.

When we want to get better at a sport, we push ourselves.
When we want to get a good grade, we study hard.
When we want to get a gift for a loved one, we search forever.
Do we do the same for God?
Are we really wanting or even preparing ourselves to serve Him and die to self?
